You want to simulate the actual testing experience as much as possible, and not being able to erase or write on the questions is a big part of the "real" GMAT experience. My students are often surprised that my copy of the Official Guide has no writing in it - that's because when I studied, I did all of my work on separate paper (I used the marker on the practice exams only, but in retrospect, would probably have used it on all my work).
It means
you should get habituated with the test-taking conditions.You should even practice like that while studying at home.In The GMAT The writing implement is a special black pen with a very fine tip. The ink is erasable, but the test center does not provide a wiper or an eraser. This isn't a major issue since if you have filled up your notebook, you may raise your hand and a proctor will provide you with a new 10-page booklet.
Also, students preparing for the GMAT
would likely benefit from practice with graph paper. Graph paper has some obvious advantages on the quant section - for creating tables, for geometry figures, and for organization in general. On the verbal side, the columns can be used to set-up A,B,C,D,E options for eliminating incorrect answer choices on each question.
The laminated paper and special pen take a bit of getting used to so, if possible, using similar materials during practice can also help.It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button
