Andrew Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Hi, I have a TI N-spire Cx Handhels that I use for my Maths HL course. I thought that playing Gameboy games on the device would be kind of fun, but for that you need to install a type of jailbraking program into the calculator, which allows you to pretty much do anything on the device, like running the CAS full environment, which I presume would be a violation to the calculators possibilities. Who is the person to check your handhelds before the examination? Most of my teachers think my calculator is like from the future or a kind of iphone, since they have never seen anything other that Ti 84s, so you will guess ...

William_Wang Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 You're not even allowed to use the TI N-Spire on exams, you have to use a TI-84 I am pretty sure we are allowed to use nspire since our school ordered every student an nspire and clearly told us that it is allowed in the exam.
