Technically, you're right - you're not supposed to bring anything into the
lab. But I brought in a set of colored pencils and figured if the proctor
didn't allow them, I'd just ditch them. It wasn't a problem with my proctor
and I have heard of and seen other people bring these in, too. You can
always ask before you go in, just in case.

I think the restriction is mainly on things that might give you an unfair
advantage on the test - books, notes, cd's, etc.

The colored pencils are a great thing to have - if you do each protocol in
a different color, it makes your lab diagram much easier to refer to.
Remember, you will be under intense time/lab pressure and you don't want to
mistakenly read your decnet node number as an appletalk address. :-)
