Thanks Ashima ji, I was aware that students will be permitted only ordinary calculators into the Examination Hall but sometimes some respected members just for the sake of commenting , write something that leads to confusion. First of all there is vast syllabus for students to study and their concerns must be addressed with certain degree of facts rather based on assumptions.
