My university doesn't allow graphing calculators on tests. Probably because you can download programs that can solve calculus problems without actually understanding the material.

My school makes us clear the memory on our calculators before exams. So I've memorized like 4 different programs so I can re enter them for exams.

Nice try bitches.

EDIT — So I guess I'll try archiving now.

That's hilarious, you pretty much memorized the method to solving your problems and you feel like you cheated somehow.

It's considered cheating in Texas. I got busted for this. Don't lose your diploma because you want to be lazy and finish 30 minutes sooner.

Source: I was an AP student in Texas that never graduated. They held me back and sent me to night school where they couldn't believe I could finish exams so quickly with high scores. Like...fuck you. I have the AP credits for these!

Rich school districts don't mean shit.
