Taking the SAT exam with an Approved Calculator


The SAT exams are well known and inspire fear and concern in high school students throughout the United States and abroad. They are administered by the College Board on select dates throughout the year.

Unlike other exam administrating organizations, the College Board does not provide a list of specific calculators models that are approved for usage. According to their site any graphing calculator, scientific calculator, or four-function calculator is approved* for usage provided that it:

  • is a standalone device (e.g., not part of a cell phone or PDA)
  • is not a stylus-driven device
  • does not utilize a writing pad
  • does not have a QWERTY (typewriter-like) keypad
  • does not have printing capabilities.


Calculator Town
sells several calculators that are approved for use on the SAT exam. Click on the links below to learn more about and buy these approved calculators.




* Calculators can only be used on the mathematics portion of the SAT exam.

  2. Hmmm, I used my trusty Casio scientific calculator during my SAT, and I'm still using it until now.Thank God it never fails me. It doesn't matter what brand you use, actually. Just make sure that it's working and it's accurate. Personally, I'd pick a top-of-the-line calculator anytime. I don't want to ruin my SAT score because of a faulty or inaccurate calculator, LOL.
