SUMMARY

The Casio FX-911ES PLUS does not meet the criteria for allowed calculators in university examinations, as it features a multi-line display and programmable capabilities. According to the guidelines, students are permitted to use noiseless, non-mains, single-line display, non-programmable calculators without ASCII memories. The discussion confirms that the FX-911ES PLUS disqualifies due to its display and programmability, making it unsuitable for exam use.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of calculator specifications and functionalities
  • Familiarity with university examination guidelines regarding calculator use
  • Knowledge of programmable versus non-programmable calculators
  • Ability to interpret technical manuals for electronic devices
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the specifications of the Casio FX-911ES PLUS
  • Learn about the differences between programmable and non-programmable calculators
  • Review university policies on calculator usage in examinations
  • Explore alternative calculators that meet examination requirements
USEFUL FOR

Students preparing for university exams, particularly those in foundation courses, and anyone needing clarification on calculator specifications and examination regulations.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to work out if my calculator (Casio FX-911ES PLUS) is allowed in my uni exams but I'm a noob to calculators (I'm on a foundation course!)

Here's the description of allowed calculators:

"students are allowed to use noiseless, non-mains, single-line display, non-programmable calculators without ascii memories in examinations. This definition means that the use of graphical calculators is prohibited."

At least could anyone tell me how I find out if my calculator can do any of those things? I've looked through the manual but there's no mention in the way they've worded it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Not a hundred percent sure here, but looking more closely at the Casio FX-911ES Plus, it clearly shows more than 1 line in the display and it does look programmable.. Those two things a lone disqualify this calculator to be used.
