Can you chew gum / bring water?

nervous habits i have i.e. chewing gum during mock exams.... is this allowed on exam day?

Don't count on it.

Quoting (and checking it out for myself):

"The following items must be kept on your desk:
Exam admission ticket
Current government-issued photo identification
Approved calculator(s), including calculator case(s)
Writing instruments (pencils for Levels I and II, pens and pencils for Level III)"

"The following items may be kept on your desk, if needed:
Pencil sharpeners (no knives) and erasers
Calculator batteries (and screwdriver for battery replacement)
Eyeglasses
Earplugs
Wristwatches (analog and digital) are acceptable" (no alarm)

"The following items are permitted in the testing room but must remain in your pockets or under your chair when not in use:
Wallet (money purse)
Medicine, tissues, and other necessary medical or personal items"

I'd think it is doubtful if you were allowed to count the water bottle as "other necessary medical or personal items" - but at the same time I can imagine there is someone out there for whom it is. (For instance if you need to take some medication, a pill for instance, and can't swallow it without taking a sip of water...)

Yeah- halls are the bomb for keeping you awake and alert. Menthol plus sugar- can't beat that!

Lozenges were allowed when I took the exam. I had a persisent cough. Just be quiet about the wrappers.

still no one has answered the 'gum' question?

some guy last year was walking around like he owned the place, brought a cup of water and sat down and spilled it all over his table.
