Writing on your hands? Forum

[nonamebreakdown]

Anyone know if there are any regulations against, e.g., writing myself a reminder on the back of my hand to reset my watch after each section? I can't seem to find anything prohibiting this.

1. Where are you going to write a reminder to check the back of your hand, and a reminder to check wherever you wrote down the reminder to check the back of your hand?
2. Is the reminder in the form of "ACDBCCDAE..."?

Don't do it. The initial appearance of impropriety is enough to attract the attention of grumpy proctors.

If I forget to reset my watch I might just kill myself on the spot. So hopefully that will be reminder enough.

Yeah, what kind of reminder? Nec. Assumption Negate the Answer? lol

IMO, the content of the reminder is irrelevant. Proctors may consider any writing to be a form of cheating, regardless of how well intentioned or honest the writing is. Why take a risk? Having to contest/appeal a red flag is not a great way to start off your application process.

I'm not going to write. If anything I'll just wear something stupid that I don't usually wear, like a bracelet or something, so that whenever I look down at my wrist and wonder why the heck I'm wearing a bracelet I'll remember that means to reset my watch.

I think that's the wise. The risk of writing on your hand during a proctored test simply isn't worth the reward, especially since it seems you have a perfectly fine alternative. Good luck!

Well, read your ticket. Firearms are specifically prohibited in the testing room, so I hope you have another way. It is really ridiculous how strict these test centers are getting

Scorpion venom spitting darts are perfectly legit still. Why do you people need a watch, anyway? I hate looking at it. A watch can make me panic for no good reason. Just work at your natural, brisk pace. Haven't you practiced specifically for that for the last few months? Time management skills, among other things?
