Quick question for anyone who's taken the PSAT recently – is the TI-84 Plus CE calculator on the approved list? I really don't want to run into any surprises on test day.
The TI-84 Plus CE calculator is indeed allowed for the PSAT. It’s actually a popular choice among students due to its functionality and ease of use. Just make sure that you’re familiar with the calculator’s functions and that it’s working properly before test day. It's always a good idea to bring a backup set of batteries just in case, so you don’t run into any unexpected issues during the exam.
For future reference, you can always check the College Board's list of approved calculators if you're feeling confused about the guidelines for any tests you take in the future, like the real SAT or AP exams. Best of luck on your test, and if you have any further questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask!
