I will be taking practice tests and would like to duplicate the environment so I get accustomed to it.
What kind of notebook and marker did the testing center give you guys?
Was it just a legal Pad with pen or pencil or was it those laminated paper with markers? I ask, because I am not use to markers when doing math problems (since they are thicker) and want to know if I should prepare for it.
Thanks in advance!

You can see the "official" noteboard and pen at 3:18 in the following GMAC video about the testing center: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJkq-Rm7bxE

Hi Bullzi,
The Test Center staff will provide you with 1 marker and 1 'pad' at a time. At any point during the Exam (or during your breaks), you can exchange either of your materials for a new one (but you must 'trade' it - you're not allowed to have 2 pads or 2 markers at once). You'll likely find it best to trade in your pad during your second break (after you've finished the Quant section), so that you don't have to wait for a new pad during the Verbal section (when the clock is ticking).
