Yes i'm guessing so, because limited time is just 1.5 hrs for maths and aptitude i.e 60 questions i don't think maths is not gonna be much tougher for this limited time.

It ws allowed till last year bt I guess that it is ntallowed dis year.And it is better u dnt use it as it might spoil ur sketch if d shading doesnt come out well.It is also difficult fr d invigilator to scan it as when d paper is wet they cannot scan it and even if they scan it and it is spoilt,v cannot blame them.Bt I guess it is ur wish.U can use it if u believe dat ur gud in it.
All d best!!
