GMAT working pad- Simulation booklet [#permalink] New post   05 Jul 2008, 06:24
I have looked at the GMAT working pad provided by MGMAT. It is a LAMINATED Booklet.

Is the booklet on the real exam Laminated?

I have been assuming that MGMAT has provided a laminated booklet so tat we can wipe it after the tests.

Is the booklet on the real GMAT laminated or just regular paper?

I know it's a silly question but I am having a little bit of trouble writing on the laminated surface.

Can any former test taker shed some light on my silly query?

AFAIK, it should be laminated - unless your test centre is situated in a very remote location... I knew that they use to give paper and pencil in some obscure centres even after the erasable noteboards were introduced. But now the laminated booklet is a standard.

There were plenty of posts where GMAT-takers shared their opinions on the pad/marker issue.
See the links below, for example:

I have the pad from my MGMAT package and it was identical to the one I received on test day. I practiced with it a few times but gave up because I found that I was running out of room (I've since optimized my space usage). Also, I found it tedious and painful to clean in between math & verbal sections during practice CATs.

I now just use a grid writing pad and a regular pen.
