I had no idea the CPA used noteboards & markers otherwise I would have been using the ones I already have for the GMAT.
I don’t think anyone has suggested it before but the GMAT uses very similar noteboards and markers (minus 8 pages). Yellow dry board with grid lines. If anyone wants to use one to practice with, you can order them from amazon. Almost everyone on GMatclub.com uses them. They are somewhat a necessity to all of us. I have two of them myself. The yellow noteboard is almost identical minus 8 pages and cut out half the size, the marker is the EXACT same but I think getting a feel for the marker and board might ease some test-day stress.
Here are some benefits from the gmatclub.com founder.
“consider these arguments:
1. This booklet and pen are exact replicas of what is used at the test center, and the more you can be comfortable with that environment, the better. [Minus 8 pages and its somewhat similar to the CPA]
2. You are probably not used to writing notes and solving questions on a spiral-bound dry-erase board with a dry-erase marker pen. Having used this pen and board for a test can help you avoid some discomforts and set expectations properly
!!!IMPORTANT!!!
Regardless of whether you buy this set of not, remember 2 things:
1. Test the pens at the test center – many report that they get dry pens that do not write, and then end up exchanging them mid-test while the clock is ticking
2. Close the cap of the pen if you don’t plan to write for a little while (they will dry out if you leave them opened for too long, otherwise, they last a good while)”
what do u guys think?
