  yup its the ti-84. it's more than good... it is a necessity . you cant pass maths without it. you need it to plot graphs, form tables, solve integrals, do statistics and much much much more. you can even install programs like planners or games like mario or programs for you to store forumlas so you can cheat during exams (you must store it in the right place to avoid getting caught ). its normally around 175 i think?

  lol, TI-84 only for F-maths people what
  
  Those never take F-Maths can use meh? or is it revised under new syllabus liao?
  
  Neways, when they say cheat, they meant helping them plot graphs and do integrations. Finding inverse of matrix so on and so forth.
  
  But hor, last time my teacher say cambridge dun accept answers without any workin leh, that means if u straight key in from calculator even though they may be right but then not accepted wor.
  
  Again, maybe they revised the system liao >.<
