In fact, I bring a Concise Oxford and a Webster's along to the exam for students to consult if they wish. (I'd bring various bilingual ones along too if I had them. But the students who would use them always bring their own anyway.) We wouldn't have a problem with students bringing along any other resources; however, no one has made that request in 20 years of testing. Grammar books, for instance, simply wouldn't help much in an exam which consists of two writing samples. Hope this helps, and good luck. Kenna Manos
