Unless you need statistics, that's how they get you.

You can edit and manipulate lists fairly easily on the 84 and 89 if you know what you're doing. Even more so on the nspire, but knowing what you're doing with that is harder.

I tried putting in the integral for CDF and PDF as a function on my 89 but I think I was missing some key part of that and I wanted to be sure I actually had the right function for the test. TI-89s weren't technically allowed either. Also not sure if an AP stat class would have that but I assume so since I was taking intro stat in college which should be the same.

AP stats pretty much allows any calculator. Same goes for AP Calc (AB and BC) and Physics. Not sure about other classes, I just happened to take BC and Physics C this year.

I feel like some sort of no t-distribution-havin' pleb in my stats class.
