In English we had a maths debate and I achieved a B+ for that. I forgot to bring my laptop as an aid, hence most of the class received A+s. I mean, if you are going to have a debate, shouldn't you be talking without notes? Palm cards if anything?

laptop as an aid? how's that possible?

In my school, everything digital except watches is banned.

I am at school at the moment and I must say that it has been boring as usual. Adding to the hilarity practically no-one turned up to school with only 2 people rocking up to my Chemistry class. The teacher however made the class interesting by performing experiments with galvanic and electrolytic cells.

really, how can a laptop help in debates?
I can't think of any scenario that would help in a maths debate

What about calculators?

What about calculators?

calculators are banned, so are pencil boxes with maths table on them.
we can only bring log table with us, but that's hardly of any use.

Well here in England, you normally have two maths exams. A calculator paper, and a non-calculator paper. Each has it's own purpose. There are some sums that take ages to do without a calculator, trigonometry for example, but if you know the technique it's pretty easy.

Damn Calculators are not allowed at all that is very stricted! Over here normally calculators are allowed but if it is a test in which we ae not allowed to use calcs. then we cant take it with us otherwise it is normal..

Err, we finish in mid to late December (roughly the 20th), so even worse!
This is the year 12 students' (in NSW, anyway) last term of 'school' as such, yet they return in Week 2 of Term 4 to sit the HSC, which continues sometime into November. Good luck in your final exams, by the way!

Wow yeah, that is bad for you then having that long term.
Thanks for your encouragement.
