Good question, Porkins.
In all previous sittings, the Prometric staff have provided candidates with a printed project statement and so you can plan to use a pencil to underline sections or take notes. There’s no algebra required so scratch paper is not needed. Excel can be used as a calculator. You can gain an advantage by building up your typing speed to 70 words per minute so that you’ll be able to write 20+ pages in your report. Many people run out time before being able to write everything that they plan to.
Best,
