I am curious which calculator(s) you plan to bring to the P.E. exam. I primarily use the HP 35s and use the Casio fx-115es as a backup. Plus I carry an extra set of batteries (since they take the same...).
I love the HP for the built-in solver and for the RPN. One of the things I wished they had fixed was a better angle sign (versus the hard to read theta...). The Casio does have a sweet complex number ability with quick manipulation for conversions between rectangular and polar. For basic number crunching I like the HP better.
What are you choice(s) for the exam?
