 When I was at RTP last week, we were not allowed to use our own
pens/pencils. However, we did get 2 sheets of scratch paper, with a
promise of more if we needed it. At San Jose, you can use your own
pens, but they start you out with a single piece of paper.

   When I took the lab in RTP in December you where not allowed to use
any writing pencils or pens that you brought. You had to leave them with
the proctor before being seated.
