Is a notepad allowed or provided?

I'm wondering if a pencil and paper is allowed during the test or if there is a note section on the screen for tracking loop variable and such. I've been using pen and paper for the practice tests and I can't imagine not having access to something like that for the test. Thanks.

No, it is not officially allowed. But some people have reported that they were able to use a notepad. So, unfortunately there is no 100% sure answer for this.

That's a bummer, but thanks for the answer.

FYI, another test taker reported that they asked the proctor (on chat) at the beginning of the exam for using pen and paper, and the proctor allowed it.
