Thanks for this. My eldest is insistent that the calculator I bought from the school shop is no good and his teachers have said he needs a casio. Mother in law has just text to see if I need anything from Morrisons so have sent her on a little mission. Cheers

What constitutes useful mathematics? (stupid question, pls ignore)
Please provide significant detail whereby A Level Maths is useless (this is a generalised term, so you'll need to supply evidence that it's completely worthless in all aspects) and your suggested forms of Mathematics are useful.

it does, for radians and numerical integration

Well I certainly got A-Level maths without one, but that's probably because the calculator hadn't been invented back then!

On MEI, Core 1 is a non-calculator module but you may use a calculator for any other module (so the other 5 for A Level maths or the other 11 if you are doing further maths as well).

All stores I would have thought. My local had a label for the FX-85 (£10) but the FX-83 scans through at £3.
