What to bring to the exam
Students should bring pencils or pens, as the exam is to be written long-hand. Examination booklets will be furnished. Each student should also bring a French-English bilingual dictionary. Unabridged, or at the very least, college-level dictionaries, will be the most useful. Pocket dictionaries are not recommended.
