I heard they'll give us a board but what exactly it looks like? Is it like a dry eraser board? How big is it? What do you use to write on it and how to erase it?

It's not a board. It's just a laminated sort of paper that you can write on. You use this marker they give you, and an eraser, like the one you use on whiteboards.

How big is it?

Two sheets of paper. The size of regular paper.

What do you use to write on it

A marker pen sort of thing they give you.

and how to erase it?

Using the eraser they give you.

I might be confusing this w/ the COMLEX but I thought you weren't allowed to erase anything.

Then why do they give the eraser?

That's part of the test. They give you the eraser and tell you not to erase anything and if you do, you fail!

I knew that already. I was just testing YOU. You passed with flying colors. Congrats! 👍

The eraser is supposed to be used to clean the computer screen.

Awesome! Automatic 270, right?

Must be the COMLEX then. I remember getting approx 6 sheets & explicit instructions not to erase anything. Yet ANOTHER way in which the COMLEX is inferior to the USMLE.

Yes, and a gold star.

6 sheets > 2 sheets
