Two calculators to be safe? (2 Viewers)

[xMorrow]

Would it be wise to take 2 calculators into exams which require calculators? I know there is a very slim chance that your calculator will malfunction however, is it still a good idea? I'm kind of worried that I'll be the unlucky person to have my calculator stop working in the middle of the mathematics exam.

Also, does anyone have a rough idea on what the band 6 cut off for engineering is?

Yes bring two calculators to be safe; l'm doing the same.

lol my mum doesnt let me leave the house without 2 for exams.

If you are really keen, bring 10. Two might malfunction, desperate friends might ask for a few, people might steal a couple from you and you might accidentally drop one.

I see. Your last chance to make it big, might as well go all out in your final year of school and go crazy.

Now to the second part of OP, anyone know roughly what band 6 cut off for engineering is? I posted this in the subsection for engineering but that place is dead so it was to no prevail.

Be sure to bring at least four rulers as well, lest three of them chip and shatter.

Yes, take two calculators. Also, change their batteries.

I knew a friend a few years back who took 3 calculators into a maths exam. All 3 failed to work.

It's funny how on these forums, anyone who posts anything that appears to be unbelievable is a 'troll'. I've been here longer than you have. I'm no troll.
It was a true story by the way. Everyone after the exam was laughing their heads off when they found out.

It's no indicator of credibility.

Changing between radians and degrees takes like 5 seconds lol
