The atmosphere may be tense. Good preparation will help reduce your stress levels. Remember to get plenty of sleep on the night before the exam and eat a nutritious breakfast on exam day. What to Bring to the Exam Bring several pens to the exam. Your rough draft may be in pencil, but your final draft must be in ink.
Erasable pens are acceptable, but sometimes smear.
Liquid paper made especially to use over ink may be helpful. One bluebook may be used to list ideas and to write a rough draft. The second bluebook is for the final essay. Both bluebooks will be turned in when you leave. A large dictionary will be available, but you may bring a small dictionary if you wish.
