Note board

Hello everybody!

EPSO's website states that, at tests, candidates will be provided with a «note board». I've googled the term, but it returns different things.

Can anybody post a link with a picture, please?

The eraser is not provided. If you need you can ask for new white board (they will exchange it with the full one) or erase with your hand :)

Hi it's nothing too technical

Hi it's nothing too technical :) 

Just like David said - it's an A4 size piece of plastic. You can write on it with a marker (usually they provide you with 2of them) and you can wipe it with a little sponge (also provided on your desk).

It's very straighforwrad/easy to use even if you've never used one before. 

I would make this the least of you worries befor your exam. 

Best of luck! 

Thanks for your exaustive

Thanks for your exaustive answer. I was just wondering how much could I write on the board. For instance, the bigger the marker, the less space available. In particular, there could have been a rule that candidates were not allowed to erase the board, and that would have totally changed my approach towards the real test (and towards practice tests). Also, if as someone suggested no eraser was provided, I would have been ready to bring a tissue to do the job. I know these seem little things, but information is power. ;) Thanks again!
