Another calculator question

That's right!

I am taking DANTES Statistics on Monday. I have been using the Texas Instruments BA II Plus (TI-BAII+).

Several others have also used this calculator and they recommended it to me. After purchasing it and learning to use it: I agree completely.

It is non-programmable, non-graphing and therefore allowed by DANTES.

It can handle many different statistical calculations including single variable and bivariate stats, Standard Deviation, Mean, Estimated Value of X or Y, Combinations, Permutations, Factorials, Variance, Regression (slope, Y-intercept etc), Square Root, Exponentials, Correlation, Root Mean Square....and so on.

I am often overwhelmed by math but this calculator was not difficult to figure out, and it has given me a confidence boost as I head into my exam.

It can also compute a gazillion finance-related calculations. I haven't taken the Finance exam yet but my guess is that it will be equally sufficient for that exam.

I paid about $30 for it.

You can easily do some research on it online if you like.

Best of luck,
Snazzlefrag
