I posted this on the Facebook page but so far no one has responded 🙁

I’ve conveniently developed a sore throat and cough over the past 24 hours. Any chance the exam police will let me bring cough drops into the exam room?

I just responded on there 🙂

Sorry – you will be forced to keep them in your locker, unfortunately.

Yea the problem is they will not let you have anything in your pockets because if you reach into your pocket they can disqualify your exam (this is what I was told…). You can have whatever is in your mouth going in and then take breaks to get some out of your locker… What exam are you taking? If AUD, you should have time for breaks… If BEC, I never had time… as for the others I have not taken them so I cannot be sure. Hope this helps!

BEC: 73,81(7/6/2010); AUD: 75(5/24/2010); FAR: 76(8/31/2010); REG: 77 (10/18/2010) - DONE!!!!

I had this problem in March when I took an exam. I was allowed to take my cough drops in (I had 2) and lay them on the desk. I had kleenex in my pocket and had to throw them away and take the test center's kleenex in the exam room with me!

Good luck!

Everything turned out fine as I chugged Airborne all last night. I took BEC and it took me 45 minutes to do the first testlet so I didn't want to take a break although I did the second 2 in 45 minutes total. But there were other people hacking away in there so I didn't feel too bad about it.
