Scratch paper?

I am taking the NCLEX-RN on Sept. 10 :uhoh3: and was wondering if you are allowed to have scratch paper for the calculations. I heard they have calculators, but I use the dimensional analysis method to set up which is pretty impossible to do in my head unless it is a really simple setup. Thanks and good luck to everyone studying!!!:balloons:

When I took my NCLEX, they gave me a small eraseable whiteboard and marker to do write on if needed. They said if I filled it up to not erase anything, just raise my hand and they would get me a new one. I didn't need to use it though, because I had no calculations. I'm not sure if this is how they do it in every state. I took mine in Florida. Good luck!!!
