calculators in maths exams

Hi,

Anyonw know which exams, if any, the Casio fx-991MS is allowed? I didn't knowingly buy it for the exams, but to cut down time spent number cruching for homeworks, but just wondered whether its banned from P4-P6, M3, M4 and S2?

Thats just a normal scientific calculator - it shouldnt be banned from any. Obviously, you wont be able to use it in non calculator exams though.

Can you use a graphical calculator for P4? It says on integration or differentiation calcs, so is my standard graphical one ok? The only reason I ask is that I can't remember what any of the polar graphs look like and sometimes they ask you to sketch them.

Casio fx-991MS - same one I have :smile:

My school is letting us use it so I guess it is alright. Also someone was saying in another thread the f(dx) button and things we have on this isn't for "Symbolic Intergration and differentiaion" (ie: doesn't show us how to integrate and differentiate, i think) so it's permitted.
