your own references and handwritten notes in Exam

Hello,

I know that any material you bring to the exam must be bound and as long as it is bound they allow it. Does this include my handwritten notes too? I wrote down ALL the formulas I encountered during my preparation and wrote explanations near them, and now it accumulates for more than 30 pages so this is very useful for me. It is written in a regular classroom notebook, with the spiral wire binding. they should accept this correct?

and also the handwritings on our books ok too? (mostly i used pencil)

I would xerox the notes that are in pencil and put them in a 3-ring binder - just to be sure.

When you registered for the exam, NCEES probably sent you a candidate agreement. That document tells you exactly what you are allowed to use during the exam.

ok so by saying "bound" 3 ring binders are also ok? i thought i needed to go to staples to bind everything - not my notebook but the other stuff that i print from useful pdf reference materials... 3 ring binders are ok for sure?

xeroxing my notes sounds like a very good idea.. just in case...

Bound refers to (1) materials permanently bound, as by stitching or glue, and
(2)materials securely fastened in their covers by fasteners that penetrate all papers. Ring
binders, spiral binders, plastic snap binders, brads, and screw posts are acceptable fasteners.
Staples are not acceptable fasteners.
