[ArifKhan]

Can someone recommend a good model of a calculator for GCE AS Level Maths? Any answers would be appreciated!

I use CASIO fx-991ES PLUS, It is perfectly the best and beast calculator you can take to your exam, it is allowed i have already used in my o levels. And is allowed. I don't think there is better calculator than Casio fx-991ES Plus which is allowed, Wait for other members to answer, they might have a better calculator.

You can differentiate and integrate getting a numerical value ( not symbolic )
you can solve quadratic equations
NCR function is available

this features may present in other calculators but personally, i find that this calculator contain all the functions you need and more for as level.

Thanks for the reply. I'll check it out. So i can counter check my Integral/differential answer with the calculator?

Yes you can, it is very helpful for checking area and volume of graphs.

Cheers buddy. So calculators that can show symbolic integrals and derivates aren't allowed?

No, graphing calculators are banned

Well 991ES plus is very good, but personally it makes your work way to easy. If you really wanna be good at mathematics, you should know how to do the work yourself as well. So a better one to use would be 82ES PLUS

No, graphing calculators are banned

Are graphic calcs banned for S1 papers too? Also, would a 991ES scientific help for S1 in any way? Cheers.
