New Calculator

lovechem

So basically I needed to get a new white sharp one cause my old one was practically dead. My mum arrived home today with this black yoke. Its a SHARP EL-W531B, will this be ok for the LC? I checked SEC website and there's no info on it. Helpppppppppp!! I have chemistry tmw for which I need a calculator

should be grand because its not programmable. multiline display is allowed

I could have sworn that there was a list somewhere but I can't find anything.

This might help you though.

You do realise, I hope, that being found in possession of a prohibited calculator in the exam is dealt with in the same way as any other prohibited items (such as cog-notes).
