Do I need a fancy calculator for LC or just basic scientific calculator?

eamonn4321 · 2009-01-18 22:45:48

I have a scientific calculator with the usual functions e.g. sin, cos, tan and their inverses, powers and roots logs and inverses factorial exponential basic stats functions. Do I need anything more sophisticated than this for LC higher?

Nope, especially not a graphing/programmable calculator, as they're disallowed. (Programmable definitely, anyway.)

Most of the calculator work for HL LC is trigonometric things and powers. Make sure it has Radians mode (though why it wouldn't I do not know).
