Real DAT dry erase sheets

I've been doing my PAT practice with pen and paper. How are the dry erase sheets/markers on test day? I'm worried that the dry erase markers will make it difficult to do the hole punching grids and cube counting tallies. Is it hard to keep your hand from erasing the grids and stuff farther down the sheet? I'm worried about messing up the PAT because of this :/

I'm going to wear a beat old T shirt under a hoodie. Then when I need to erase I'm going to spit on the sheets and wipe them with my old shirt. BOOM. Instant erase board.

The markers are no longer dry erase but are permanent (or semi-permanent if you wanna call it that) hence you can exchange them for more as necessary. Don't worry too much about it.

So they probably won't erase if you hit the sheet with your hand by accident?

Not from touching, if you rub it then it erases

Im not sure if it matters which testing center you take it at but my sheets were laminated and had grids on them. the markers were fine tip sorta permanent pens and when you touch them they do not erase. if you rub them they kind of smear. I would just raise my boards in the air every time i needed new ones and they were able to switch them out. Also another thing that they did at my center was allowed me to switch 1 laminated sheet at a time. So i could have stuff or tips to remember on one sheet and one sheet would be for scratch work and I could just keep asking them to replace my scratch work sheet. If you want more information you can maybe call them or go in person to ask, the people at my place were pretty friendly.

I was worrying about the same thing but it worked out well.
