I find it funny how the math part of the SAT lets you use desmos (not that its a bad thing in any way though)

like, the whole argument of “you won’t always have a calculator on you” has been entirely nil for years now, because 99.9% of the time you need to do anything like that you will have something far more powerful than a calculator on you (your smartphone)

this is not to say that you shouldn’t still learn math just because we constantly have access to highly advanced calculators now. You still need to know how to apply and manipulate all the math, but the calculator can do most of the dirty work.
