Before starting a test or exam paper, make sure you have the right calculator. It should be a non-programmable, non-graphic scientific calculator. You should know how to adjust the calculator to scientific -mode and statistic- mode and use it when applicable.
Note that in the new “CAPS” curriculum no formula sheet is given. Pupils should know the different formulae by hart. Also remember that if the question states: “without a calculator” then the different steps should be included so that proof is given that no calculator was used
