Lets finally do something about the terrible calculators that we get given in exams. They're not suit for purpose, and make the exam much harder because of the calculations most maths and engineering students have to do. Give us Casio FX-83GT Plus scientific calculators or let us take our own into the exam after being checked! We can't go on with this, time to take a stand.

I have been hearing from so many of you about how these clunky calculators slow you down during critical exams. My own grades have suffered because of these machines and I am pushing the department to let us use our own equipment.

Seeing this kind of momentum confirms that I am not the only one struggling to finish my exams because of these faulty tools. It is clear that so many of you are just as frustrated by this broken system as I am. We are finally getting the attention we deserve.

I want to live in a society without the oppression of these Nokia 3410 calculators
My calculator screen has half the digits missing. Just let us use our own fx-83s.
Total joke. Why are we paying thousands in tuition to use relics from the 90s.
Better calculators would make the calculations much easier and quicker, allowing students for better time management during an exam and possibly obtaining a better score at the end.
Rubbish calculator's that will not have to be used in industry. Calculators affecting grades
These calculators are not easy to use whilst you're under pressure in an exam.

Literally lost marks because the buttons stick constantly. It is stupid how we are expected to use these ancient things for advanced engineering modules.
