time to **** stuff on paper before the exam starts?

Hi, I'm taking my CCNA on Saturday and was just wondering whether you get time once you're in the exam room to "memory ****" on to paper and if so how long?

Thanks

yes...you can usually use the first couple of minutes to do this.

I hear it's good practice to write down the masks and their CIDR notations before you start the exam. You can do that while you do the survey. But hey....you have to know your stuff by heart anywayz.

Good luck

Gee is it just a couple of minutes? Was hoping for 15........

just jot stuff down as you read the agreement and take the survey before the test. you time doesn't start until you start the test so you have as long as you want.

There is a survey and a tutorial before the real exam starts.
You can probably get a max of 10 minutes out of those to write your stuff down.

As you normally only get one erasable sheet there isn't much space to write stuff down anyways.

Take a DIN A4 or US Letter page and practice your layout on in. Once you get into the room simply "recreate" that page and you are ready to roll.

They wouldn't give me a pencil and paper to work with so I asked for a few extra dry erase sheets.

I quickly wrote out a small subnet table from /30 to /22 just before I began the survey and although I knew them anyway (I did write it down), I used it several times durring the exam.
