    I am new to the process. I am going to take BEC next month. My question is, do they provide scrap papers? or anything to write on? Thank you for the input.

    My testing center had fine-tip pens that I was able to erase just rubbing it with the tip of my finger.

    Also, the glossy sheets have a bold grid on them like graph paper, which IMO makes them completely useless!

    I don't think I wrote a single thing on them during FAR, wrote out the CRIME pneumonic for BEC and for REG just used it to keep track of how many MCQs I flagged in each testlet.

    And definitely cap the pens between use!!

    My FAR test had very little leases and bonds, which is probably why I almost never used the sheets. I used them more for BEC actually, but even then I didn't fill up even one full sheet.

    BEC - 82
    REG - 86
    FAR - 85
    AUD - 84 and I'm out!!!!!

    They give you two glossy sheets to write on with dry-erase markers, except dry-erase doesn't work well. It's gross but I just cleaned it off with saliva because I was in a rush and had no time to request more.
