Urgent Physics Subject Test Question!

<p>So I'm taking some physics practice tests in the McGraw-Hill's book, and some of the questions definitely require a calculator. However, everywhere I look, people are saying that there no calculators allowed on the test! What is the truth?</p>

<p>No calculator. The calculator is only permitted for math. [url=&lt;a href=“The SAT – SAT Suite | College Board”&gt;The SAT – SAT Suite | College Board]SAT</a> Physics Subject Test - Physics Questions & Tests<a href=“look%20at%20the%20important%20notes”>/url</a>.</p>

<p>Thanks, I just wanted to make sure. Haha, and I took a practice test without one and managed a 780, so I think I should be fine.</p>

<p>ya, I find that VERY annoying… for example there was a question of the Snell’s law, with the incident theta being 27.5… and it asks for the refracted degree… how amusing</p>

<p>yeah, no calculator. Many of the questions on the princeton review require a calculator for fast problem solving. It is kind of frustrating while doing practice tests, because there was a case where I had to multiply and divide decimals (not perfect division either). but you can estimate if that helps. many times, estimating is quite accurate and efficient.</p>
