Hello guys and girls,
This is my first post, please don't be rude.
I have bought a Casio fx-570es Plus and I'm worrying whether I will be allowed to give my CIE's with it.
From the feature overview from here:- http://www.casio-europe.com/euro/sc/technical/fx570esplus/
and the Cambridge calculator must not have things here:- http://ask.cie.org.uk/system/selfse...USERTYPE=1&CMD=VIEW_ARTICLE&ARTICLE_ID=311589
I am a very beginner in CIE's. I have to give maths, physics and chemistry in 2017 but I want to practice with the calculator I will be allowed in the CIE's only. If the specifications are ok with CIE's not allowed features, please tell me and explain to me a little about why this is allowed. Anybody who has some CIE proof or him/herself has used this calc in CIE (pakistan) would help me alot. I really need help guys!

This is from the Examination Regulation document:
8. Calculators with any of the following facilities are prohibited and use of any such calculators will be regarded as malpractice:
• graphic display
• data banks
• dictionaries
• language translators
• retrieval or manipulation of text or formulae
• QWERT keyboards
• built-in symbolic algebra manipulations
• symbolic differentiation or integration
• capability of remote communication with other machines

If your calculator has any of these, it may not be used. The "fx-991es" has the Symbolic differentiation, so it may not be used unfortunately.

Please read the instructions for: a) Examination Regulations Regarding the Use of Calculators and Dictionaries.
b) The IGCSE/GCE Guidelines.
Search for them on Google.
FX 991 ES Plus has only numerical differentiation and integration, not symbolic. I have it. But it has constants, I don't know if that counts as a data bank...
