Hi! I am a new comer and new student for June exam. For using calculator, ACCA guidelines said calculator must not have memory and word display function. Is this truth? Almost every calculator has memory function. Any advice for me? Thanks in advance. Also, should I bring pencil for MC questions?

Every calculator has a memory but not all have word display function. Word display function mean you can type and retrieve anything on your calculator screen. So, this is combination of choice which is wholly dependable on word display function. If yours don't have word display, don't worry.
