It is not a programmable calculator and costs only $16 dollars. Unless i am missing something, having not taken the test yet, i would want the regression features on a test calculator. let me know if i am correct.
Hi Upgray,
You definitely need the two-variable functionality for the Statistics exam.
I don't know about anyone else, but I would swear by the TI BAII+. It is a statistical AND financial calculator in one. It has almost every function you will need. It was invaluable to me on both Principles of Statistics, and Principles of Finance.
I paid $30 for it on Amazon.com. Knowing what I know now, I would gladly have paid $100 for it.
Hope that helps,
