Calc Program for Math???

<p>I just got a pretty neat calculator program from a friend. It allows you to do like quad formula, distance slopes and stuff...is that allowed on the test i mean it gives a "unfair" advantage, but then again the proctors wouldn't know anyways</p>

<p>I have some of these as well, and was wondering the same thing. I seem to recall reading a discussion somewhere before saying that calculator programs were allowed, but I didn't see anything official from the CB</p>

<p>Edit: See SAT</a> calculator program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Seems like it would be allowed?</p>

<p>Most of the problems really don't need a calculator in the first place, let alone a program, but try using it on a practice test, if you think it helps, I see no problem with using it.</p>

<p>^ im sure it would help for a few problems though, but does anyone know if it's legal or not?</p>

<p>There's been a lot of discussion on the matter, but the official word seems to be it's legal. The thing is, it just gives you a time advantage on certain programs. The SAT is a reasoning test, and when you get down to it a lot of the questions aren't exactly going to be answered with a calculator program. Just aided.</p>

<p>It's allowed (as opposed to the ACT), but not really necessary.</p>
