Forgot to enter calculator make and model in Leaving Cert Higher Maths

Howeller · 2014-06-08 15:59:10

Hi, I forgot to enter my calculator make and model in Leaving Cert Maths paper1 HL on Friday. Is this a big problem? Is there a chance they could even fail me for it although I showed all my workings etc?? I will enter it on paper 2 tomorrow and leave a note about it. Cheers

What happens if you're like me and only realise now that you didn't write the calculator model on either paper?

Tell your Superintendent tomorrow.

It will be fine. Realistically it's there if the examiner spots something odd on your paper like a perfect graph drawn and no evidence of how you calculated the points. Some calculators can graph if you input the data.
