Does anyone know if CASIO fx-CG50 calculator is allowed in Alevel Chemistry?

Hi, I’m about to sit my Edexcel A-level Chemistry exam, and I was wondering if anyone knows whether this calculator is allowed. It does have a periodic table on it.

you are allowed to have it but you have to put it into exam mode.

Are you sure? I keep hearing different things, so does it not matter that it has a periodic table on it?

When the calculator is in exam mode you cant access the periodic table, not sure if this is the same in your sixth form but in mine they go around check you calculators to see if its in exam mode,

Hi Zoewss,

I did some digging & found that it is allowed in the exam.
