gollark: They get around the fact that common calculators can do a not insignificant amount of the maths-exam stuff automatically by having a non-calculator paper for further maths, requiring working, and having more complex multi-step questions.
gollark: Maths, physics, chemistry, biology (very occasionally, it's not that mathy).
gollark: A single board one with an ARM CPU, but it definitely beats the calculator.
gollark: I can literally get a *computer* (without peripherals) for that price.
gollark: I mean, for £25 you get... buttons, an underpowered CPU, a battery, and some sort of low-res LCD matrix.
