In general, unless explicitly stated that a certain type of calculator is permitted or is required for a particular test, calculators may not be used in some practice test.

Tests That Permit the Use of a Calculator

It is possible to use a 4-function or scientific calculator to pass this Middle School: Content Knowledge (5146) test, although you aren't required to do so. You must bring your own calculator to the test center. A calculator is not provided in the test center. A graphing calculator is not permitted during this test.

Types of CalculatorsThat Are Not Permitted

The following are not permitted during Praxis exams:

  • Laptops, laptops, and handheld computers
  • Electronic pads for writing
  • Models with pen-input/stylus/touch-screen capability
  • Calculators can be found on any phone watches, electronic devices
  • Models that include QWERTY along with other alphabetic keypads as part of the hardware or software
  • Models printed with printers
  • Models that emit noise or "talk"
  • models that need an outlet
  • Models that can access the internet, or have either wireless, or Bluetooth (r) capability.
  • Models with cameras capable of scanning, digital audio/video player recording/player capability

In addition, use of hardware peripherals is not allowed.

Tests That Provide an On-screen Calculator

Calculators that are supplied by test takers will not be allowed on Praxis tests which include calculators on the screen.

On-Screen Scientific Calculator

The next practice tests offer an on-screen scientific calculator. The tests employ an TX-30XS MultiView(tm) calculator. A tutorial is provided so that you can test your skills using the calculator in the simulator prior to test day.
