What can I use at the prometric center?

A prometric center my friend has been to (taking OAT) in Canada only allowed him two 'plastic' sheets, a erasable marker for rough work, and a brush for erasing the sheets. Nothing more. It was pretty bad because the marker's really thick and the brush sucked at wiping. I cannot imagine doing my test without a proper paper/pencil set.

What about prometric centers here? I'm in Northbrook IL.

Thanks.

Two laminated sheets with grids on one side. Two non-erasable markers. Some say you can use your spit to rub it off, but I didn't try it. If you want more sheets, you have to raise your hand and wait for a proctor. I'd recommend to request new sheets during your break.

Californian here. I had two laminated grid sheets, 2 expo markers, an eraser that looked identical to a computer mouse, and construction earmuffs. Erasing wasn't bad, though it did smudge. That wasn't a big issue. The markers dry out temporarily if you leave the caps off, so lightly recap the marker in between questions.

The centers are standardized. No exceptions.

You get the same thing he got, and everyone else who wrote the test got.

You have a really bad imagination then. Too much TV?
