Hi everyone,
How much paper do we get when we take the test? Is it unlimited, or do we have a limited number of sheets? Especially if you have taken the test in Topeka, KS (where I am taking it), any input would be much appreciated! Hopefully it isn't too limitied...I write big!

It depends on where you take the exam at. When I took it I got as much scratch paper as I wanted. But some places are using laminated paper, or portable white boards.
I would call up the testing center and find out. They understand you have questions so, call them and ask.

You might want to take it a step further and actually go to the testing sight and ask to see what you will be provided with (type of paper/laminated material and writing utensil), plus this will give you a chance to see exactly where everything is located. The opportunity to avoid any test day confusion is well worth the effort.

I did that 👍 but I didn't ask about scratch paper because I thought I already knew but they changed the policy by the time I took it. I was pretty jarred to find out I had to use 2 dry erase sheets and markers. Luckily I hardly had do scratch work anyways.
 
I'm really hoping to find a location where I can use paper and a pen or pencil...the blunt dry erase marker scenario is not very attractive.

Well...I got a dry erase board. People at different sites got 2 pieces of paper
