Graphing calculators are *required* for students taking the Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra II/Trig Regents exams. Schools may not require students to purchase their own graphing calculators for these courses: "Under no circumstances should students be charged for a calculator or otherwise required to purchase one in order to participate in an educational program."

Graphing calculators are specifically forbidden on the Earth Science, Living Environment, and Chemistry Regents exams. They are permitted on the Physics exam.

As required by the state, your graphing calculator has to have its memory cleared before you take the exam. Many schools have a program that will do this automatically, and will clear your calculator before you enter the exam room. Be sure to back up any data onto your computer before the exam.
