Calculators

(This policy is currently under review.)

If a calculator is on the current list of approved graphing calculators on the College Board’s AP Exams Calculator Policy, then it is legal for NSML competition use.

Frosh and Sophomore level contests currently forbid calculators with Computer Algebra Systems (CAS), which will exclude some of the calculators on the list.

Rules for all calculators are:

  • Calculators must be battery or solar powered.
  • Calculators may not have printouts.
  • A student may use at most three calculators.
