So I was taking a topscore test yesterday and started using my dry erase marker on my laptop for the angle rankings and had a lot of fun. It worked too! I'm sure I know the answer to this already, but will I get tackled and beaten by the prometric proctors if I do this on test day? Angle rankings are way tough and this earned me at least 2 right answers. Thanks!
 
I took it today and somewhere it made a comment about only using the markers on the given scratch "paper."
 
Kaplan prep guy told me it's not allowed.

Btw, anyone know the size of the markers they give you (maybe a link to an example would help)? I want to buy some markers, but I don't want to practice using thin ones if they give you thicker ones.
 
Ive read the testing instruction and it says you are to be given two "fine tip" dry erase markers. Ive heard of people taking it and being given the fat ones though too.
 
From what i heard you are not allowed to even touch the computer screen. I assume writing on it is definitely out of the question.
