<p>Is it possible to bring a mechanical watch with me when taking the SAT </p>
<p>Can I use a mechanical pencil (HB,0.5) to take the SAT ??</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Yes, as long as the watch doesn’t make noise.</p>
<p>Yes, though I would recommend 0.7mm lead as it fills bubbles faster.</p>
<p>Note about the watch: if it does make noise usually you can open up the back and put a piece of tape over the area by the battery and it will stop the beeping. You can do this just in case and try it out before bringing the watch in. </p>
<p>I brought a watch and they were fine with it.</p>
<p>Technically you aren’t supposed to use mechanical. The reason (I hear) is that someone once put a camera in a mechanical and used it to take pictures of the test. You probably won’t be bothered though. Nonetheless, I would recommend bringing along a lot of sharpened wooden pencils and rubberbanding them together.</p>
