Is it possible to use highlighters ?

<p>Is it possible to use highlighters on the sat ? and if it is possible, do you think it is useful ? I'm sorry if it is not an ortodox question, but I don't remember at the moment if the college board's guidelines say something about it. Thanks</p>

<p>I meant if it is useful for the critical reading section</p>

<p>They are not allowed, if I am not mistaken. All you can use is a pencil and eraser (and calculator for Math sections).</p>

<p>why aren't they allowed? </p>

<p>What Not to Bring to the Test Center
A watch with an audible alarm
Scratch paper
Notes, books, dictionaries
Compass, protractor, ruler, or any other aid
Highlighters or colored pens or pencils
Portable listening or recording device (with or without earphones) or photographic equipment (Note: Acceptable cassette players with earphones are required for the listening tests.)
Cellular telephone or pager </p>

<p>why is collegeboard so stupid lol highlighters aint gonna do anything</p>
