I have looked at the practice questions and I do not see any that require a personal calculator to answer. Does anyone here know whether a calculator should be taken into the exam or not?

I ask because I see that they are allowed and my DD doesn't use one as a rule so I worry that it would be less efficient timewise if she used one because she would not be used to it. On the other hand if there are some calculations that will require it for efficiency then I worry that it would put her at a disadvantage if she does not have one.

Thoughts pro and con?

We are considering her taking the test to be able to get into cool summer camps while the test is still being administered...
