gollark: I think they just survive entirely off being allowed in exams...
gollark: Apparently I need an £80 graphical calculator for my A level stuff. This is ridiculous. You can literally buy a (bad) phone for that much now.

gollark: It's a good book, except we read it so very slowly and over-detailed-ly.
gollark: I read that in school last year. It was very æææææ, like reading anything in school is.
