Any chance there will be a digital clock at the test center?

I can't imagine how preoccupied I'll be during the test with constantly having to wonder how much time is left and whether or not I'm pacing myself accordingly. Although they allow analog watches, I - and I'm sure many of you - would much rather a digital watch to refer to.

1) a test center might notable a clock, or it might not
2) digital is banned because some digital watches can be programmed

Wear an analog watch around from now until testday. Don't let yourself use your phone to check the time. You'll be completely confident with the analog in no time. I'd say it's almost easier to tell the time with an analog since you're just looking at the one hand and the hand creates a sort of visible division in how much time has elapsed so you can see how much has gone past and how much is left, unlike a digital.

Hell, who am I kidding, I just might do this.
LOL not a bad idea

Yeah, unfortunately I don't have an analog watch so I'm going to have to go pick one up (cheap) in the next few days; and hope you're right about it being just as easy as a digital watch!
