Hi help so basically my UCAT is in like 18 days and my mental maths is not that great. So I know that you’re not allowed to bring on a scientific calculator but are we allowed to being in a normal one? Because using the onscreen calculator will deffo take too much time and I’m already stressed about timing anyways. Thanks

No, unfortunately you can only use the online calculator
Like others have said, you can only use the online calculator. Using the keypad is a good tip, as is making sure you practice with it as much as possible - from now on, whenever you do practice tests, only use the on-screen calculator
