I bought a “Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus Silver Edition Graphing Calculator” for my son, who is 10th grader and taking Pre-calculus now. It is a wonderful product from Texas Instruments for the students in high School or College students, it is recommended by a lot of math teachers for students to take PSAT/SAT. I personally was amazed by this product, which is very easy to read, and it is really fast with so much powerful functions, besides it has a powerful programming environment, and a well-organized keyboard, thanks to the modern technology for providing kids such a good tool! I believe it will assist my son in Math and Science courses and etc. Although it is a little expensive, I think it is great investment and a very useful tool for my son’s learning.
If you want to save some money, the standard edition (TI-84 Plus) may be a good choice, although silver edition provides a few additional preloaded programs, the standard edition (TI-84 Plus) provides wonderful functions as well and it is also recommended for PSAT/SAT test-takers. In order to let your child prepare PSAT/SAT early, to buy the graphing calculator is a definite good idea, since your child will have enough time to get used to it and use it efficiently to achieve a good score in PSAT/SAT.
