btw, is the time allocations for each section just the suggested time? or do they collect/tell us to stop after that amount of time for each section?

Also - when it asks for identification, and asks for "Driver's Licence/Learner's Permit - Number" - is it referring to licence number or card number? =\

- Sharpener (if we're even allowed?!)

It's not recommended time. They make sure you're onto the next section after 65 mins etc. But they don't collect booklets. For instance, section 1, it'll have stars on the top corner of every page, for section 2, it'll have umbrellas on the top corner of every page, for section 3, it'll have hearts - so that examiners walking up and down the aisle can tell if you're on a different section.

Knowing how strict they are with some of their rules (no student ID card, no stopwatch-capable wristwatch, no passport if it's over 2 years old, even if it hasn't expired [?]), I'd like to know, are pacers/mechanical pencils allowed? Or am I going to be refused entry? This makes me wonder about what happens to anyone without appropriate writing equipment - no mercy for them?

Also, my main form of ID will be a letter from school (since my passport is >2 years old), and they were unable to get a passport photo and glue it onto the paper (they just printed it). They also didn't leave a space for my signature (even though I gave them a list of requirements), so I had to write my name in pen along with the signature. More reasons to refuse entry?

i heard of some people being allowed pacers, but just bring pencil to be safe. something about how pacers give you an edge over the other students or something. who knows, wont make that much of a diff. anyways gl guys. be sure to post ur feedback when ur done.

I thought pencils were better, as you could fill in the circles quicker... anyway see you guys on the other side! lol

you can get those really big fat ones thin they're 0.9mm. and they work really well and u dont have to sharpen. altho, i still do recommend that people take heaps of 2B pencils. clicking the pacer wastes time too.
