This information can be found in your TAM on page 11 or STCM on page 18. It is the responsibility of the test administrators to ensure that all calculators used on the Algebra Subject Area Test are allowable. The TI-Nspire calculator is allowed only when the TI-84 faceplate is on and in working mode. Use of a TI-Nspire calculator without the TI-84 faceplate is considered a testing irregularity and will result in the student’s score being invalidated.
