Some changes have been made to some exam regulations for this year, and you should be aware of these before exams start in December.   

Dictionaries of any type, including translation dictionaries, are no longer permitted to be used in exams, except where the specific instructions for the examination allow it (for example, in some 'open-book' format exams where you can access any material or book).

Smart watches should not be worn to an exam, but you can take a basic watch and place it on your exam desk.  A basic watch is one which can tell the date and time, may possess additional basic functions (such as a stopwatch or lap timer) but it must not be any form of smart watch or fitness tracker, and must not have the ability (whether set up to do so or not) to store, send or receive data of any kind, or to connect to a phone.
