    Default No calculator on this one

    I specifically called the Collegeboard about this one about two weeks ago. No calculator allowed and none built in either.

    Don't worry, you won't need it if you can do simple basic math (as in 35000/7 etc.).

    Not to be dense, but which exam are you referring to specifically?

    Also is there a calculator with College Mathematics?

    Accounting = no calculator
    College Mathematics = online calculator provided (http://www.collegeboard.com/student/...lep/ex_cm.html)

    This is really good information... I'll definitely plan on asking for more scratch paper before the exam. Maybe even write down a few of the basic formulas as soon as I sit down - before any potential test anxiety takes over and my brain starts questioning itself.

    Shoto - I can just imagine your stress if the math test didn't allow a calculator - last exam, no calc! EEK!! But, this should be total smooth sailing for ya.
