How big is the dry erase board they give you during NCLEX? I was told that you cannot erase it but you can request another one when it is filled.

It was about the size of a legal pad 8.5x11. I really only used it for the math and to write down my labs so I wouldn't forget once the nervous energy began to hit...:)
Thanks. I guess I will have to just keep asking for another board. I have no shame.

yeah the board is no that big. i used it to keep track of all SATA and was writing down unfamiliar words and diseases, so i was able to look it up after i was done, i also wrote all lab values, they will give you another, just raise your hand, GOOD LUCK. im attempting to retake mine:crying2:

Hey carreont, that's ok. i thought i would fill mine up with a bunch of labs and some more last minute stuff i crammed into my brain. actually i've only wrote 3 things a math calculation, and some signs & symptoms to a SATA question. the other poster is right it's just the size of a legal pad and you can't erase it.

I agree. You might be surprised how much you don't write down. I, too, like to write stuff down so that I don't forget, but during the test I never had to ask for an additional dry erase board.
GOOD LUCK though! BE CONFIDENT, and don't forget to breeathe!

I used it to keep track of how many SATAS, Psych, OB, Pedia questions i've got..It's a good thing to keep track for you to know your weakness on a certain topic. You are not allowed to erase what you have written but you are allowed to ask for additional board. Good luck.

I never even bothered to use mine. It just sat there on the desk and kept getting in the way.
