Hi 2,

That type of 'external' item (re: headphones, ear-plugs, etc.) will not be allowed when you take the At-home version of the GMAT because those items could be used to cheat (re: someone could conceivably give you the answers or otherwise talk you through how to answer the questions). If your location is particularly noisy (and you can't pick a time for your Exam when there is less/little/no excessive noise), then you might look for other locations that would provide you with fewer distractions (re: a friend's/relative's home, a library, a business office-space, etc.).

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
