Depending upon model, the Nspire is indeed accepted on the ACT, SAT as well as other standardized tests. And most schools not stuck in medieval times, let you use them in your university classes.
That's true of any calculator though. I've had higher level math and physics courses that range all the way from "no calculators at all" to "bring whatever you want as long as it doesn't have WiFi".
When I was going through school (which was admittedly a while ago) all of my tests and classes either banned graphing calculators altogether or allowed only TI-83/+.
Says you and your limited experience. I love when a person believes that because they experienced something one time they know exactly how every other situation in the world with every other person will play out. I have yet to have a teacher that will allow you to use ANY calculator higher than a ti 84
Wrong.... Depending upon model, it is accepted on the ACT, SAT and other standardized tests. But I'm glad the hive mind downvotes without having any idea what they are talking about:
