From the AACN Certification Exam Policy HandbookPaper and pencil exams are available to those located 3 hours or more from the nearest computer-based testing site and to groups of 30 or more testing within the U.S. Group discount pricing does not apply to paper and pencil exam sessions. Requests must be submitted to AACN Certification Corporation 3 months in advance of desired test date. For details see page 10 or email certification@aacn.org (p. 9).

From the AACN Certification Exam Policy HandbookNo- OP is asking if you are provided pencil and paper for note purposes, not a paper exam. I do remember getting a single sheet of paper and pencil for the Peds CCRN exam- which they keep when you're done. I don't even remember if i used it or not.
