Our teacher in the 1st grade of high school (9th grade) just told us all to get the fx 991 ex so we would be ready for the "matura" exam at the end of 4th grade (12th grade) because that's the best calculator allowed in that examination. It is definitely a very awesome calculator gotta say.
When it comes to buying a calculator, in my experience the key deciding factor is to ask your teacher “What calculator will you be using in class to demonstrate, when you demonstrate checking using a calculator ?” then buy that. Simple as that. In class you want to be learning the maths and following along, not trying to work out how to do on your calculator what the teacher just did on theirs, whilst they’ve moved on to the next topic. You want to only have to remember the key strokes for one calculator (the one you and the teacher use) not two (the one the teacher just demonstrated on and the one you have). For the same reason, if you can lobby the school authorities to standardise on one make and model of calculator for all maths and numerate science subjects and to try to get a bulk deal with a supplier. This is particularly good where you will be doing GCSE and A-Level at the same institution so the calculator you get might be a bit over powered for GCSE but you save on buying a new one for A-Level and having to learn a new set of key strokes to do the stuff that carries over from one to the other. It also means the institution can buy in bigger bulk and get a better deal. Better a calculator that will last you 4 years (something like the CG50 would probably see you through university as well, so that’s 7+ years) than have to keep buying new ones because you cheaped out on the first one. It is NEVER cheaper to try to save money by buying the minimum that will suffice. Also, spend the extra few quid on the stronger case, look after what you bought.

@@HarrySurplus Is the TI-36X Pro calculator allowed for the new A level maths and further maths, or is only the TI- 30X pro calculator allowed for A level maths and further maths? As I have not got the casio fx981EX calculator as of yet due to the recent Corona virus pandemic and lockdown restrictions but as my older brother has kindly let me borrow his Texas Instruments calculators he used I was therefore wondering if you could possibly have any advice thanks, Tom.
Can you use Texas Instruments calculator for A Level such as the TI-36X Pro calculator or is Casio calculators the only brand of calculators that is recommended such as the Casio FX-991EX Classwiz calculator??? Why I ask is that my grandparents bought for me the Texas Instruments calculator rather than the Casio.
Do the better calculators such as the graphical calculator and A-level calculator work with the basic equations you will most likely be doing in the basic scientific calculator? Or do you have to get separate calculators depending on which topic you’re doing?
i got a graphing calculator on discount from my school and i'm starting the a level in september (it was their reccomendation to get one of the graphics ones instead)
Thanks you so much ! for making this video absolutely loved it. I had a question is the graphing calculator mentioned in the video is allowed in A levels for Cambridge International Exams?.
Hi, do you think they would allow Casio CG50 for GCSE exams? So it would only cost us once, instead of buying two calculators for different exams (AS/A Level
Are graphical calculators allowed in international A level maths exam? I have P1, P2, P3, P4, S1 and M1. Will I be allowed with the graphical calculator in the actual exam hall.
Special devices for special exams is just insane. Think about what you daily need, for everything else you take a computer, maybe an app for your smartphone. The only reason for any other decision is really "it's not allowed in school".
how about CAS? (that the most expensive Texas-Instruments & HP Calculators have got) Which is: The school-serious & important "high-end feature", to solve equations! ... Is there an app/program for this?
does the graphical calculator miss some features that are from the classwiz one or not? so it basically has the exact same features as the classwiz but with the added graph mode?
Hello Harry, for the classwiz calculator, when I press the MENU/SETUP button I only get the first 3 modes, I've tried reset then setup data, it didn't work, what else should I do???
I have no say I never needed the Integration or Differentiation Feature in the University at all. Since whenever you do this, the teachers wants to see how you did it and you are forced to do it symbolically by Hand and no approved calculator can do this. But nethertheless the Fx991DE X is still One of the best approved calculators and I used it For the whole Bachelor and Master.
Im a cheap skate so can I get away with just the 991ex calculator for both a level maths and further maths? I don’t want to be at much of a disadvantage in the exam, but I’m not even sure if I’m going to go ahead with further maths, as I only start it in year 13
