Thank you Mohater and others. Well it is an important, yet usually overlooked issue. We talk about time management and all that while forgetting and the scratch paper thing can waste precious minutes. I know that we need to raise hand before the notepad is full but that also waste time and more importantly concentration. I'm sure even if I ask for another in advance, I'll lose concentration by keeping an eye what the administer is doing now, coming, not coming, waiting for my confirmation,...what? So, has anyone managed to get two pad at the same time in any center?
I asked for two pads and two pens. But they would only give me two pens (which I would highly advise asking for as they reuse these pens and they often will run out of ink)
But in regards to the notebook, just request a new one at the beginning of each section and you should be fine. Even after AWA, if you've only used 1 page, I'd still ask for a new one at the first and second break in order to maximize your writing space for the quant section.
As long as you practice at home writing/working out problems in an organized fashion, 1 notebook for each section should be fine. I mentally divided each page into blocks of 4-6...so I would be able to solve 4-6 problems on each page. The pages are pretty big, so again, as long as you don't write sloppy and all over the place you'll be fine.
