I thought using your own graphic calculator at exams were banned? As you can 'program' them with pre-set equations or little 'reminders' to help you on the exams.

I guess they forgot, or trusted the students not to do it. :ermm:

I think thats a bit of carelessness on the part of the teachers and administration. Here in Canada when I had my math provincial examination, they checked all the scientific calculators for any slips or sheets in the back of the case, and they handed out graphic calculators, as you couldn't use your own.

I never bother with games on my calculators. Besides the good games for the 89-Titanium like Super Mario run the risk of the DoorOS crashing. I've already had to reset my calculator twice, and that is twice too many. :angel:

Anyway when it comes to the PSAT and SAT they are not allowed to take away your calculator. You are allowed to use any calculator as long as it does not make noise, hooks up to a mainframe computer (that means in order to run not like a USB), and it cannot have a qwerty keyboard.

I still have my TI-83 Plus that I haven't used in a long while.

I used to use the TI-83 when I was at school. That inspired me to purchase a Texas Instruments graphing calculator for home use.


I was thinking of selling my TI-83 Plus since I haven't been using it in a long while. Any suggestions regarding this (i.e. Where could I sell it?, How much do you think I could get for it?, etc.)?

I also have a Windows (serial) link cable for it (a.k.a. Black Cable).
