So I had some quick question for those who know how the exam works the day of.

When you get there what should I have with me? Are we allowed to have water in the exam area? And where do our belongings go??

After each section do we get time to rest? Also if we finish a section early can we take a break and how does that work? Do you have to sign out and such?

Between sections is there a chance to look over notes such as before the math section if I had like a cue card to bring with me can I take a look at it during my little break??
 
You really dont need to bring anything with you other than your two forms of identification. You will be given a locker to put your stuff in. You will be given a dry erase board and marker for writing with. No food or drink is allowed in the testing room. The only break you have is after PAT. It is ten minutes which about enough time to go to the bathroom and get a drink. You do have to sign in and out everytime you leave the testing room. If you can run over a math formula sheet in 5-7 minutes then by all means bring it, but your break goes by so fast you barely know you had one. Ohhh if you finish a section early then you can just sit there if you choose until the next section starts but I would utilize all my time to go back over my answers....but that is juts me.
 
Its a laminated 8.5"x11" sheet of paper. It sucks.....I have taken the test with both pencil and the dry erase marker and I hate the dry erase marker with an unrivaled passion. I write big so I had just enough room to fit about 2 problems in before I had to erase it. But ya just gotta deal with it.
