    Bring Acceptable Form of Identification.

    The same version of your name must appear on your application, this Notice to Schedule and on the identification you present at the testing center. You must present two forms of identification at the testing center, one of which must include a recent photograph and your signature and be on the list of primary forms of identification below. The other identification must include your signature. Neither form of identification may be expired.

    Primary Forms of Identification:

    – Valid (not expired) government issued driver's license with photograph and signature. The license must be printed in English to the extent required to compare the name with the one on the NTS and to confirm validity.

    – Valid (not expired) state identification card with a recent photograph and signature issued by one of the fifty U.S. states or by a U.S. territory. (Candidates who do not drive may have an identification card issued by the agency which also issues driver's licenses.)

    – Valid (not expired) government issued passport with a recent photograph and signature.

    – United States military identification card with a recent photograph and signature.

    Secondary Forms of Identification:

    – Additional government issued identification from the above list.

    – Accountancy Board-issued identification.

    – Valid credit card (with signature).

    – Bank automated teller machine (ATM) card (with signature).

    – Valid bank debit card (with signature)

    – The following are UNACCEPTABLE forms of identification:

    – Draft classification card.

    – Social Security card.

    – Student identification card.

    – United States permanent residency card (green card).

    If the test center staff has questions about the identification presented, you may be asked for additional proof of identity. You may be refused access to an examination and forfeit the examination fee for that session if the staff believes that you have not proven your identity. Admittance to the test center and examination does not imply that your identification is valid or that your scores will be reported if subsequent investigations reveal impersonation or forgery.

    Books

    Briefcase

    Calculator/Portable Computer

    Calculator Watch

    Camera, Photographic or Scanning Device

    @stephhw– I didn't eat a snack for REG or BEC (3 hour tests), but I ate one for FAR. It really helped too. I was just so mentally tired by the end of the third testlet. I took a five mintue break and ate some pretzels and fruit snacks and it helped me get through the sims.

    REG- 53, 91
    BEC- 88
    FAR- 62, 85
    AUD- 85

    Ethics- 93

    Those white/clear wax ear plugs are AMAZING! The earphones they give you for noise is not great and those rooms are definitely not quiet. I think the NTS says no earplugs, but my center never has a problem with it.
