Are Graphical calculators worth it for Maths?
Last week of my GCSEs, and planning to do Maths, Physics and Computer Science for my a-levels. I've been told that you need to get a slightly more advanced calculator for maths, but i've also seen that there's a graphical calculator which can do much more. Is it worth the investment? I plan to do computer science at uni if that helps.

No, it's stupidly difficult to use and it really doesn't help you that much. Besides, if you want to do a mathematical course at uni like computer science, it's probably better to be fully confident with all the A level maths content rather than relying on the calculator
