    try telling that to the arts students who dont know how to multiply fractions.

    I've noticed that. Whatever about people not being able to multiply fractions, its about speed in section three and not having a calc. to do these quickly, I think, will slow us down a little.

    Didn't even turn my calculator on during section 3 last march. Doing the sample papers never seemed to turn it off.
