Today, I have a final for my precalculus class. After hours of studying this week, I felt pretty optimistic. Until I got to class and realized that I'd forgotten my calculator. FML

You didn't calculate a good exam plan, OP, but I won't go off on a tangent...

But you don't need a calculator at all for pre-calculus...I only used my calculator to play mario...

I know that feel, bro. Happened to me too, only it was my AP Calc final T_T

The whole point of caluclus is that it doesn't require a calculator. y'know, invented in 1600s...

You could ask the professor to let you borrow one. They almost always let you.

Forgot to bring my calculator to the SAT the first time I took it. Needless to say I took it again.

We weren't even allowed to bring calculators to our pre-calc exam. If I remember correctly, most questions in calculus can be worked out pretty easily using a pencil and paper, so you don't even need it.

Oh no! That sucks so much! Were you able to borrow one from someone?

This is why calculators are not allowed in classes with good teachers. Calculators are a crutch. Students should know how to figure something out without one.
