> 24 hourI have a TI-84 plus that I love but my math Calculus teacher doesnt allow graphing calculators on tests so I decided to buy this one. I was really impressed with the visual interpretation of roots and exponents. It makes it easy to look at understand immediately. 5^(3X) is shown with the 3x part above the 5 like you would handwrite it. I have used older models of this calculator and some Casios and this is easily worth the $5 extra. Everything about it works, and it works well. MathPrint is ingenious and allows you to visually see mathematical things. Like if you want an exponent on a normal calculator it would show an ^, but with mathprint it actually shows the number as a superscript on the first number. Pros: -Good display -Good visual mathematical interpretation (MathPrint) -Find y values for given xs for a function -Keys have good tactile feel and register every press (as opposed to a lot of other competitors) Cons: -Funky cover, (clip on vs. slide) but not a big issue at all. Easy to get used to. -No integral functions (which is a plus for me since I wouldnt be able to use it on a test if it did have that) Conclusion: This is a great $15 scientific calculator and I highly recommend it.

> 24 hourI am currently starting to take a lot of CHEM classes in school. There are online scientific calculators and one that is already built into my OS but I have found that having a physical scientific calculator like the Texas Instruments TI-30XS MultiView is been invaluable! It has already paid dividends in getting my homework and classwork done. The price did not break the bank and I very happy I decided to purchase this calculator.

> 24 hourJust what I was looking for!! My old TI-83 finally died, but I dont need something so sophisticated for daily use, but I REALLY like the multi-line feature. So far Ive only confirmed that it has that feature, just like the TI-80s, which was my primary desire. *Havent tested anything else out* The cover doesnt slide, it snaps on the front and only covers the button; doesnt wrap around the sides like the larger calculators do. I dont know if the solar-powered battery means longer life; my old calculator ran on AAA batteries and lasted 10-14 yrs. Ill update if I find flaws/issues.

> 24 hourThis calculator was on the list of approved calculators for proctor exams with my university. It is easy to use and works like a champ for what I need it too. So far, not hicups or issues. Since it is made of plastic, I would recommend that you buy a case to keep it in, so that it doesnt break or crack if you drop it. I does come with a hard plastic cover that clips on the back while you use it.

> 24 hourI bought this because it is the only calculator that the GED allows you to use for the GED exams. I prefer having the physical calculator as opposed to using the virtual one on the exam. Learning how to use it effectively is very helpful, especially with the math exam. I used it most of the time whenever the my GED study book and test allowed. It cuts down on calculating time, which is important with the time limits.
