Calculator Progression
Rob Hornick  Account Info

6th grade / Pre-Algebra: Bought a TI-82 for $60.00 at a going out of business sale, CrASH RuLES!
7th grade / Algebra I: Still got that 82, yearning for the TI-92...
8th grade / Geometry: Yes! TI-92! Got Plus module when I realized Fargo was dead.
9th grade / Algebra II+Trig: Sold TI-92+, bought TI-89. Still got my TI-82 even though it's in a state of disrepair (I never finished adding a memory chip to it, oh well... Until they come out with a killer app for it, I probably won't fix it.) Only thing that sucks is now everyone has a TI-83 Plus, which doesn't even have TETRIS so I have no one to play link games against. Pity me =(

oh poor baby, let's whine about how we got an insanely powerful calculator about 6 years before you needed it. Then got one that you would only need in 4 years.

Actually, TI's above 1000 can only add, subtract, multiply and divide, occasionally also have square root keys.

Any ideas why College Board won't allow calcs with a QWERTY keyboard on the SAT and PSAT?

I mean, you dish out around $275 for a state-of-the-art TI-92+, turn around, and find out you need to dish out around another $100 for a TI-8x? PSAT is in 10 days, and I've got to round up money for a new calc, just because my current calc has a QWERTY keyboard. Who cares what kind of keyboard your calc has? What's the difference anyway?

I don't mean to be disrespectful to College Board, cause they do a great job on the testing. It just seems really silly, that's all.

They don't want you typing in the questions and letting a friend use your calc.

Juniors RULE
Redfox  Account Info

Us Junors R SmaT! We CICK BUT! GOO Junors! Wo-Hew! Yippe-Skippy! Ahh the hell with it, I don't wish to stereotype all of us juniors with being stupid. What is the point of this survey anyhow? They don't use banners on this site, so why do they need to know what audience they have?

Maybe they just want to know.

Interestingly, I remember TI-Files conducting a similar survey months ago. High schoolers won :)

The last time I checked this survey, college students 0wned with more than 23% of the vote. (I happen to be in that group. ;)

You go to App state? I was there over the summer with the Summer Ventures program. Nice campus, too many hills. And I think it's the only place I've been to that the food is actually... halfway... somewhat... decent?

I spent all my time in the CAP building, Electronics Lab on the second floor. You taking any classes around there?
