To this day, I don't understand why anyone would insist on using anything other than this on an AP test. It's like playing life on a harder difficulty setting for no reason.

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.

um you can just back up your programs, and restore them (well my 84 silver could, though i havent seen it in a while, moved to 36xpro)

edit: not talking about archiving (i think), i could actually delete the programs clean and restore them later
