I'm stressing over the QR section, particularly the calculator. So I have some questions I'm hoping you guys can answer:

Is the QR calculator as small as the DAT bootcamp calculator?
Can I drag the calculator to the side if it's blocking the answer choices?
Can I use the keyboard to input values?

Thanks

Not sure about the first two, but you cannot use the keyboard to input values - mouse only.

I haven't seen the DAT bootcamp calculator but its like the basic calculator you'd see on a Window's computer in the accessories tab.
And yes you can drag the calculator around.
And yes you can use the keyboard to input values.

I'm glad someone is asking questions about the QR calculator. I've been trying to track down what to do about the square root function the test. I've seen a lot of people on here say they had a square-root function the exam and a lot of people say they didn't. Does anyone have a confirmed one way or another? Is it appropriate to call the test center and ask/do they even know?

Set up a test drive if you're curious about the calculator.. I did one the day before my exam and it answered all the questions I had about it.

Everyone's is different apparently.. But mine was about the same as the one you find in accessories.. It wasn't laggy and could be dragged around. It did have a square root button and I used the keyboard to input stuff. It's bigger than bootcamp's.

Thanks for the replies and info! Tbh I never knew about the test drive, maybe I'll try it out.

Woah, never knew about the test drive either! I'll definitely look into doing that too. Thanks, Metsfan692 for your answer and super112 for the great thread.

For the test drive is it specific for the DAT or they would just show you around and stuff?
