HELP!! I'm a senior in high school taking Pre-Calculus this year and NEED a graphing calculator , teacher says $90 for one, is this one good enough??

i'm completely getting this for pre-calc and it looks like their button layout and naming mimicks TI's for teachers who think TI is the "standard"

Yes it is a very good calculator...I use this calculator for college all the time..I love it...but it is not in common use teachers and most don't know how use it...they only know the a Texas brands most likely...you might have to learn how to use it on your own...but it is not that hard to grasp ...just watch simple YouTube videos about it...this calculator is simply amazing

This is a very good calculator. I used it in pre-calculus and calculus. It has all the functions that you need and others you don't. Its super simple to operate and the manual is not complicated at all if you need it.

Yes. It's better than the TI in a lot of ways, does more, and the price is right. (I'm a pre-calculus teacher).

....yes this one is good. Actually it was what his math teacher said to get.

Thanks for your comment. I was going to purchase this, however seeing as how all of the information entered was the same sans age and you got two very different answers, this calculator seems faulty.

I am just about positive u can. But call CASIO---BEST calculator out of 5 I have owned---it does everything

Why would you spend $23 for a cutter assembly when a new unit is between $25 and $29?????? So yes you can but I think it is a bad investment. I'd much rather purchase the Teacher Pro which is a better model...and although you can't replace the cutter in the Teacher Pro it is about the same price at the School Pro.

Yes the same, possibly a new model with a differnt chip set or color. It has CAS, for 3-D graphing you may have to download the OS update from Casio (when it first came out it didn't have it)

It depends on the calculator. I'm a teacher, and mine lasts a long time between charges, perhaps a month or two, but a couple of my students' calculators do not seem to hold a charge very well at all. I've charged their calculators for them, and they still went dead a day later, so it's not just that the student forgot to charge it. The non-color TI-84s lasted almost a year on one set of alkaline batteries, and frankly I would prefer alkalines over the rechargeables.

According to HP, the Platinum editition is 6X faster than the regular one. While this might be true, it is however not worth to pay 50% more. The traditional one exceeds my expectations anyway. After all, at least for myself, an average user of this calculator would not notice the speed difference under normal circumstances. So, my suggestion would be, stick to the older one and save about $23.

You have to buy the full product from math works.com for $500, I think. You need an email address that ends in .edu if you want to use the Student Version.

I bought this calculator for my son. He says he thinks it should work with that, but he's not certain...sorry not to be of more help...Good luck!

Yes! This is a great product for a reasonable price. I used mine for a grad school course and had no troubles with it. I am considering purchasing some for my school to use in the computer lab with notation software. It is very user friendly. Enjoy!

"CAS is an acronym for Computer Algebra System. With this, you can calculate or manipulate high-level expressions such as differential, integral, or limit." So, that is the definition that Casio is applying to the Class Pad 330 calculator. You might simply say this calculator is using programming to resolve mathematical problems. However, what specific features are you looking for in a graphing calculator? If you are asking if this calculator will connect to your computer - well that is a different question.

Yes, I bought this calculator for my daughter; it is great for everything! Chemistry/physics/and all math course. Highly recommend it, not sure how my daughter survived without this calculator.

Also you can download the manual online. I highly recommend using the manual and actually entering the data entries they show. It really helps show you the expansive abilities this awesome calculator can perform.

No, this one links from one calculator to another. The one that connects to the computer (through USB) looks like this. http://www.amazon.com/Texas-Instruments-94327-Graphlink-USB/dp/B00006BXBS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393361764&sr=8-1&keywords=ti+83+usb+connectivity

I think it would be very helpful because it is capable of solving equations. You would find more benefits than the wasting of capabilities. The only problem is that the calculator is so new there isn't really any helpful videos on how to use different features on the calculator so you have to depend on the manual a lot. I am using this calculator for statistics right now.

The calculator does have a 4-line display, and 16 characters. I went to my local walmart recently and they had it in stock (back to school) and if you're hesitant with purchasing it online I'd give it a go at walmart and if you aren't pleased return it. Also try Office Max and Office Depot I seen them at both stores. Hope this helped! And along with Penny's husband I've used this for my chemistry classes as well as pre-cal. You honestly can't beat the price.
