i bought fx-100 MS and my math teacher said it's allowed ...and u kno what he also said ...that no one checks what calculator u r using ...... the only thing tha'ts not allowed is the calculators in a mobile or simply graphic calculators "By the way it's written in the statement of entry!"

all calculators are allowed apart from the graphic calculators...

some invigilators might disturb u in add maths paper about the 991ES...otherwise it is fine in all other papers...

the models which r supported -- do not allow u to do matrices

usually legally, they say u should use any casio FX which has less than 100MS, so u cannot use 100 MS. and all calculators which support matrices, r above 100 MS such as 991 MS and 570 MS ..

but for us the invigilators had no knowledge, nor she never checked the calculator cover..
she just told us to write the calculator numbEr on top of the exam paper.

so one guy used to bring FX 570 MS and used to write FX 82 MS :P :D
