PAT rules on actual DAT

On the PAT section is it against the rules to rip up pieces of your scratch paper for the pattern folding section and physically make the shape portrayed on the screen? I know this is not a viable option for most of the pattern folding, except for the basic ones and time is also a big factor. Just wondering if I can or cannot do this come test day given I have some extra time and want to double check myself.

Your scratch paper is laminated, so no. You also have to turn it back in to get more, so no.

well if you do go for it, definitely let us know what the reaction is

No, you can't, and I assure you that even if you could it's not really a viable strategy under the timed pressure of the actual DAT.

How do you even have the time to do that?
I mean that question of folding surely not worth it.
