Yea, I took it.  I bought one of the review books about a month before and
went through it and made some notes.  Extra calculator (didn't need it),
pencils and they allowed us snacks so long as they where "quiet".  Quiet
snacks meant no loud crunchy stuff and we take the wrappers off before you
went in.  Water OK, soda not OK.  My pile of stuff was probably under 3 lbs.
I saw people hauling in every textbook they ever owned!  Silly.

I took the exam my last semester of college.  I figured that if I couldn't
pass the EIT after 3 1/2 years there was a serious problem.  Other than
reading the review book I didn't go to any of the cram sessions.  Didn't see
the point and still don't.  Passed just fine.  Lowest score was associated
with the "chemistry" section.  Makes sense because I took Chem. I and II as
a Freshman and really didn't enjoy the classes so I didn't internalize the
information.
