I take the DAT in a few days and am a bit nervous about the white board situation...I tend to use a lot of scrap paper when I am working through different problems, and use a whole sheet of paper of the PAT section. I highly doubt that the two white boards given will be enough room for me (because I am not necessarily neat when under pressure either). Anyone have any thoughts on this?

You can swap boards pretty easily. Just get used to using them (laminated paper actually works reasonably well haha)
My nervous hands were sweating so bad during the test that it made my laminated paper wet and I could just wipe off the marker with my sleeve

They will offer you more laminated whiteboard/paper. However, I'd ask the proctor beforehand because I've heard of some testing centers that limit you to a certain number... can't say if it's true or not but I personally used ~8 of them and my proctor did not have an issue with it at all.
