<p>it says to bring #2 pencils and has a picture of the wooden pencils- D said to get her mechanical pencils and it does say # 2 on them- are they ok for the test or should she take both?</p>
<p>Mechanical pencils used to be disallowed (see, e.g., [thread=454002]this thread[/thread] and the quote from a previous CB web page). This wasn’t for any good reason as far as I know. But I can’t find anything (in the blue book or on the current CB web site) disallowing mechanical pencils, so as long as they are #2 lead it should be fine. I’d bring a couple of “regular” #2s just in case, though.</p>
<p>thanks- just printed admission ticket- said mechanical penscils are NOT allowed</p>
