Calculator Policy
Small battery- or solar-powered electronic calculators restricted to a maximum of six functions-addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square root, and percentage-are allowed. The calculator must not be programmable and must not use any type of tape. Candidates can also use Texas Instruments' BA II Plus, HP 10bII+, HP 12c, or HP 12c Platinum calculators when taking the exams. The Hewlett-Packard 10BII is valid, but no longer available for purchase. Candidates will not be allowed to use calculators that do not comply with these restrictions, and only one calculator will be permitted per candidate. Please note it is up to Prometric to make the final determination to accept a calculator.
If for any reason the candidate's calculator is not allowed at the testing center, the test site personnel can provide a calculator to the candidate, or the candidate can use the calculator application within the exam software.

At a Prometric Test Center
• Arrive at the Prometric Testing Center 30 minutes before the time of your appointment. If you are more than 15 minutes late for your scheduled appointment, you will lose your scheduled sitting and be required to reregister at full cost.

You may be scanned prior to each entry into the test room to ensure you do not have any prohibited electronic devices. If you decline to be scanned, the test center administrator will be required to submit a report to Prometric and ICMA.
