Or will those be provided by the firm for the necessary exercises?
You can bring them if you want to - it's quite common for people to bring these things. The firm might also provide them too though.

At least you have what you need if you do bring them.

Hey @njones95,

Personally I would! Worst comes to worst, the firm restricts what you can use. But ultimately if you work best with highlighters/rulers/pencils/different coloured pens etc. which might not be supplied by the firm, you would be wise to bring them with you to put yourself in the strongest position possible for your AC.

Incidentally, which firm is this for?

If I can help with your preparation at all otherwise feel free to tag me (or alternatively any other member of the team including Jess above or @James Carrabino and @AvniD :cool:)
