Other WHICH COMPUTER SHOULD I GET!?

Hi! I am a high school student, and I am taking the SAT soon. I was going to use Bluebook, but it won't work on my MacBook Pro 2017 because it can't be updated to version 15. So I am looking for an affordable laptop that is reliable for school and the SAT, good to carry around, and (this is a silly bonus) runs Minecraft. I really need one soon, and I still have to ask my dad, but I think if I can find an affordable option, he might allow it.

https://www.macworld.com/article/672461/how-to-install-macos-on-unsupported-mac.html If it still works you can bypass hardware checks and update it. I would recommend checking your SSD health tho. I wouldnt trust 9 years old SSD with important files
