<p>Have you taken Math IIC subject test?
Can you tell me what kind of calculator did you use and which ones are most helpful when it comes to Math IIC, thank you :)</p>
<p>A TI-83 will suffice, but I prefer the TI-89. Don't get an 89 just for the test or something though.</p>
<p>oh... it's expensive, right? :/ I think i might have to rent it or something... :D i'm sooo done...</p>
<p>A graphing calculator would probably be very beneficial on the exam, especially if you are inexperienced with polynomials. You could probably borrow one from a friend in calculus or maybe even a teacher (Stats teachers have loads of these) . If not, I would recommend the TI-34 II , which allows you see what you have entered, so you can double-check your computation before hitting the = button.</p>
<p>However I am not sure if the II section really requires it; I took it, and chem if i remember, w/o a calculator to prove a point and did fine. So the extra effort might be better used to learn a little more, like matrices or something.</p>
<p>I'm using a TI-36. </p>
<p>Just got a TI-84 Plus from a friend today, but I haven't got a clue on how it works. :)</p>
<p>everybody says a TI-89 really helps, but I was just fine with my TI-84. I would definitely have some sort of graphing calculator, though.</p>
<p>I find my TI-83+ has proven to be very trusty.</p>
<p>its the taker not his damn calculator, if you want a graphing calc any TI will do, although for speed sake the simpler the better (thinking TI-83 plus as thats the classroom standard)</p>

<p>get an 89. but only if you have time to learn to use it before the test.</p>
<p>Can you succeed also with a scientific calculator?! I'm international and the graphing calculators cost here a fortune. I also have nowhere to get it from.</p>
<p>I'm an int'l as well. </p>
<p>All that a graphing calculator will do is plot some graphs for you and make those seemingly hard questions, viable. It might also help with sequences and some other stuff.
Yet, there's something more than plug and hit "=" in the test. At least I guess so. So I advice you not to buy one if it is excruciatingly expensive for you.</p>
<p>All Ti?? What happened to Casio?</p>
<p>Haven't heard about Casio, but my friend owns a Sharp.</p>
