Graphing Calculator Capabilities for the Exams |
|
|
 |
The committee develops exams based on the assumption that all students have access to four basic calculator capabilities used extensively in calculus. A graphing calculator appropriate for use on the exams is expected to have the built-in capability to: |
|
|
| |
• Plot the graph of a function within an arbitrary viewing window |
|
|
| |
• Find the zeros of functions (solve equations numerically) |
|
|
| |
• Numerically calculate the derivative of a function |
|
|
| |
• Numerically calculate the value of a definite integral |
|
|
|
Graphing calculators having the expected built-in capabilities listed above are indicated with an asterisk (*). However, students may bring any calculator on the list to the exam; any model within each series is acceptable. |

Technology Restrictions on the Exams |
|
|
| |
You are not permitted to use these items on the AP Calculus Exams: nongraphing scientific calculators, portable and handheld computers, laptops, electronic writing pads, pocket organizers. ?? |
|
|
| |
Additionally, you cannot use any graphing calculator models with these features or capabilities: QWERTY (typewriter-like) keypad as part of hardware or software (e.g., TI-92 Plus, Voyage 200); pen-input, stylus or touch-screen (e.g., PalmPilot, personal digital assistant, Casio ClassPad); wireless or Bluetooth capabilities; paper tapes; talk or make noise; require an electrical outlet; have cell phone, audio, or video recording capability; can access the Internet; or camera or scanning capability.
