Some of this I think depends on where you take the exam.
I took my first one at San Jose and it was a very pleasant experience. I was very nervous about what the lay of the land would be myself and it was very much a professional and easy to work in environment. The cubes were short walled and smallish but big enough to sit comfortably in. The monitor was a large, flat, wide screen - at least 24" possibly larger. I usually use 2 19" monitors myself and this one was more than big enough. Notepad, Calc are usable. The Terminal program is an older Secure CRT that does not support tabs. The browser was IE and you have access to this link basically: http://www.cisco.com/cisco/web/psa/default.html?mode=prod There were a few parts of the documentation that were restricted but it wasn't much and I wouldn't worry about it terribly. Everything that is on the blueprint should be available to you. My proctor was very approachable and did not give me cryptic answers but be sure your questions are simple and to the point. No food was allowed at the work station, drinks are allowed at the workstation. There was a bathroom across the hall and a break room. I didn't go in the break room but supposedly there was a drink and snack machine in there. Lunch was good. Best of luck! -Mike
