I was wondering if anyone could explain where I can learn how to use a scientific calculator? I can do math on paper just fine, but I can't on a calculator.
And I will be taking the test the first of the year, in preparation for college (I'm in my Senior year).
Thanks in advance, horse_rider1990

It's the problem horses that have the most to teach us about not only riding, but about life.

The point is that a calculator is an artificial prop. If you're doing your math on a calculator, you're not learning to do it by hand. Given, it can be useful to check your answers on a calculator, but it becomes a big temptation to rely on the calculator rather than your brain, resulting in not actually learning the math as well. This goes double for people whose talents lie in areas other than math.
