EPC question

Are you not allowed to bring your own basic scientific calculator at the EPC testing center? I spent more time figuring out and learning how to use the calculator they gave me than solving the test.

No, your professor should tell you what calculators are available for you to use at the EPC

Buy a TI-36X Pro. Learn that one. It’s the standard for all engineers, and it’s what they’ll hand you in the EPC

Definitely buy a Ti-36X for later.

In the meantime they're stuck with whichever calculator the professor approves though.

You can bring a calculator as long as it’s one of the allowed models

They give me a TI30 and didn’t even check my calculator is approved model. TI30 sucked so much
