<p>I have taken the Sparknotes practice test for Math Level 2 and lot of the solutions just ask me to plot it in a graphing calculator, that’s it…</p>

<p>I can’t get one now, too late. Will it be a huge setback?</p>

<p>And man the SN questions are tough. Does 660 in SN = 660 in actual? >.<</p>

<p>Maybe if SparkNotes could get its server together, I could take a darned test and give you a valid opinion.</p>

<p>^ Pity. Its working very well for me.</p>

4

<p>The SN are very easy ._.</p>

<p>Good luck on the actual if you think those are tough <_<
This will probably set you back a lot, unless you are a human calculator.</p>

<p>well i hope barron’s isnt like the normal test. the highest score ive gotten there is 660 :(</p>

<p>Sparknotes is craptastic; don’t use their questions as a model for the real exam. </p>

<p>As to the necessity of a graphing calculator, here’s an analogy: </p>

<p>If you’re asking about the necessity of a GRAPHING calculator, opposed to a scientific calculator, all I’m going to say is that being able to graph functions and find the zeroes, intercepts, etc. in a few seconds is going to save you a LOT of trouble and points. But you should still be able to get a decent score without it if you get all the other questions.</p>

<p>^yup. Sadly, you can’t really expect to score high without the graphing calculator. Maybe try another one and wait until you get one?</p>

<p>Yeah Spark Notes sucks…and they’re pretty easy, so If you are having trouble with that…</p>
