On my practice tests, I usually do the good old CNTRL+scroll up trick to make it easier to read, is this feature blocked on the real deal?

I tried it on my test. Doesn't work. I even hit the windows key at the very end (after the void option) just to see what would happen. They blocked all those keys.

PS: I even tried CTRL + F for Verbal ... doesn't work either lol. Infact, I think me doing that caused my screen to freeze later on. When I hit the next button, the screen froze which ultimately resulted in me losing 5 minutes (for them to fix it and restart me). I was short on time anyways and overall I felt it wasn't worth the risk of submitting, so I voided.

Darn Does anyone know if when you take the test is the computer screen up right or is it down(like you are looking down)?

I'm not sure what you mean. The computer screen isn't pointing up or down. It's facing the chair directly in front of it. When you sit in the chair, your face will be in front of the screen (at least that was the case for me). I guess if it's a problem, they can always readjust the monitor.

Oh ok thanks! Yeah thats what I meant cause some of the computers they have on my campus are weird like when you look at the screen its like looking at the desk lol

shucks, wells thats too bad. I figured that'd probably be the case, so I won't enlarge my practice test fonts anymore.
