Are candidates allowed to use calculators on the PiCAT Verification Test?

On the PiCAT Verification Test, calculators are generally not permitted. This policy is in place to ensure that candidates demonstrate their mathematical reasoning and problem-solving abilities without the assistance of computational devices. The test aims to assess an individual's knowledge and skills based on their educational background rather than reliance on technology.

Other options imply that some form of calculator use is allowed, which is not the case for the PiCAT. Allowing calculators could lead to an unfair advantage or diminish the assessment of a candidate's true capabilities, hence the strict no-calculator rule.
