    This 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.

    Below is the review Id written before. Its been a few months since I used this calculator so Im going to forget some things. But I have to take back something I said about it regarding exact answers & adjust my rating as well. The key just above the enter key (<>) will give an exact answer if used at the end of your entry. So that complaint is mostly gone. Id like to be able to set a mode where this is the default behavior, but the button will do in a pinch. But I still scratch my head at programming the calculator to return exactly what you give it in that respect. It isnt intuitive. But I think I was unfair in my rating before so I wanted to update. I decided to keep the calculator around to do personal accounting & random calculations on Summer break. It has worked out very well for that & the larger display lets me look at a few lines at once. The form factor and weight are desirable compared to the more powerful calculator. For its intent, its a solid little piece. It just has little items that differ enough from the TI graphing calculators to add frustration. For me anyway. I wont use it again in class or on tests unless forced. I may carry it as a small, light backup, but it will be a last resort. Snip: To give an example, if I give this calculator the task of computing 2 root 2, it gives me back 2 root 2 as an answer. In order to get beyond something I already knew, I have to do something like 2.000000000000000000001 root 2. Thats pretty annoying and clutters the screen. I and a few others have tried working through all the settings & cant get out of this mode. Furthermore, it only does it when it feels like it. As this is the ONLY calculator Im allowed to use in calc-based physics, I find this deeply annoying - so much that I cant bring myself to muster another star to keep the lone one company. Other than that, I appreciate that its laid out somewhat like the 84 & 89. The solar thing is nice & it doesnt take up much room. But the little niggles are so aggravating that unless Im in an exam, I have my 89 sitting right next to this one at all times...only use it so I know whats gonna happen to me on exams. After this series of classes, I suspect I may use some physics to destroy this thing properly.

    This scientific calculator is very nice the instructor gave us the exact order number we bought them last year and I bought an extra one this year in case my granddaughters calculator just stolen hers held up all through her first year in high school thats how good it is 9th graders are tough on stuff. The instructor likes them so much that she puts it on all of the brochures now she has the sophomore Junior and senior math department instructors doing the same. Wally world doesnt cut it this calculator I bought on Amazon is lasting its well made the batterys last long the keys have not lost their color of the numbers and it was used a lot.

    I need it for class and it worked perfectly. I was confused about certain abilities, but with a quick internet search, I was able to figure it all out. I would buy it again.

    This is a very good calculator, for when I need to do my simpler calculations. (It is an alternate calculator for the Advanced Algebra and Trig class that Im taking). If you can afford the fantastic calcuator, though, I highly recommend the (currently over $100) graphing calculators, such as the TI 84 Plus C Silver Edition or any of the 83/84 family. They do all of the functions that this excellent calculator performs, and many more, such as graphing functions and creating tables from those functions. For the person who asks, If the Plus C is a five-star calculator, why didnt you cut the 30 down to at least four stars? my answer is simple. For the $10 to $20 range calculators, the 30XS is a five-star calculator For the $100 and up range calculators, the 84 Plus C is a five-star calculator, along with the HP Prime (which is also a five-star calculator). However, the latter, though better in some ways than the 84 Plus C, is not allowed to be used during some college exams. I have all three calculators.

    This was a great calculator! I used it for so many classes through out college. I am writing the review years later but frankly it has been a wonderful calculator and I still find it working like if it was brand new. Pros: Lightweight Great color scheme Ability to use the 2nd function button to get even more utility out of the calculator Very easy to use The back has a card that shows you basic operations as a reminder The tracking button is super useful for searching through your history to see the old work you did or to copy and paste it in case you made a mistake somewhere along the way (very useful for math like calculus) The screen is very good quality and it makes it easy to see The battery life is amazing! It lasted me years of extensive use before ever needing to replace them Cons: No cons aside from it is not a graphing calculator but if that is not what you need, this is a calculator I highly recommend!

    I am using this calculator for my Finance class for my Masters Degree which by the way is an approved and required calculator by the University for this class due to the 5 white buttons we are using, and it does not COMPLETELY clear out your work. Professors even mention you have to actually RESET the entire calculator AFTER every problem. It continuously gives you different numbers when entering the same numbers in an equation even after resetting. Trying to solve mile long equations with this calculator is beyond frustrating and is causing students who use this calculator to fail their proctored exams. Horrible technology!!!

    I had a TI-nspire before hand, but upon entering pharmacy school, they dont allow calculators that are basically computers. So I needed one that was consistent with what the NAPLEX allows for test taking. I chose this one because of the multiview feature which is very nice (I like being able to see the prev. calculation that I just did). Overall 10/10 buy it
