No. 2 pencils with erasers

You’ll need to turn off all electronic devices during the test and even during breaks. This includes cellphones. Be sure to turn off your watch alarm, if you have one.
Why? Test centers are serious about security and quiet, so prohibited devices—which include cellphones, tablets, and MP3 players—must be turned off and put under your desk. Better yet: Leave them at home.
Important:
You will be dismissed immediately and your scores will be canceled if you use your phone or if it makes a noise—even during breaks. Your phone may also be confiscated and inspected.
At the end of the test you will be asked if you want to share your email address. If you share your email address and opt in, it’s easier for colleges, scholarship programs, and the College Board to get in touch. Find out more about connecting to colleges through the free Student Search Service®.
