for those of you who are curious as to what screen you will have, this is what my test center had

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...Manual&prodTypeId=382087&prodSeriesId=3463248

HP L1750. Also the mouse you will get has a scroll on it but its disabled meaning that you cannot scroll during the test with the mouse. You have to click the up and down arrows on the window. Just a FYI for those you wanted to know.

At my center the scroll did work, but only for the pane with the questions in it, not the passage (or maybe it was the other way around...I made another post on this forum that addressed this the day after I took my test when everything was still fresh in my mind).

And yeah, the monitors in the centers are 4:3 screens with a low resolution. Hence why passages seem bigger to a lot of people. They're not actually bigger, the screen is just proportionally smaller so the text takes up a lot more space and seems bigger. If people don't want to be caught off guard by this they either need to be mentally prepared for it or practice using a 1280x1024 monitor.
