<p>Honestly, a graphing calculator makes a world of a difference on standardized tests like these. I really doubt I would’ve scored 800 on my Math II test without my TI-84. Many of the questions can be solved in literally seconds with the push of a few buttons whereas they could take minutes by hand. Keep in mind your son only has a bit over a minute for each question on the Math II. </p>
<p>Bottom line: Learn how to use the GDC as efficiently as possible.</p>
