Calculator Batteries accounting, calculator, suddenly

TheMBAGlover

Hey guys,

Is there any way to check the battery levels on the TI calculators? I've been using mine pretty intensely this entire week doing practice exams. I bought it off of a colleague who was an accounting major and used it all throughout college, and suddenly had nightmares about my calculator dying during the exam (I'm def. losing it =P). Also, anyone know what kind of batteries they use? Admittedly this last part is just me being lazy and not checking before going to bed. Thanks!

I haven't change it since I bought it a year ago..I will bring an extra battery along, don't think you need a sccrewdriver to change it...

you might have the TI regular one

my BA II Pro doesn't have any screws on it

They would actually, you're not allowed to bring in a knife. but you are allowed to bring in a screwdriver. i wouldn't bother though, just get another calculator.

Just making sure - you're actually allowed to bring in spare calculator batteries into the exam, right?

you can bring spare batteries and a screwdriver.

HaHa. Never thought of that. Do it 007 style. Very small with special glasses so you can read it. Or a calculator that is as powerful as a iPhone but looks like a BA II Plus.

If you gona buy the batteries, why take them with you and waste time at the exam? just change them before hand.... They're only a buck...
