14 Use the Erasable Noteboard Booklet and pen to make notes

When you take the test, an Erasable Noteboard Booklet and pen are provided for you to make notes. Each recording is played only once for any item, so your notes will help you remember what is said. For example, in Summarize spoken test, take notes while you are listening to the lecture and then use your notes as a quide when you are summarizing the lecture you have heard.

You can also use the Erasable Noteboard Booklet and pen to plan your essay in Write essay.
