List of allowed calculators to be used in the upcoming Forestry Licensure Exam

Requested from PRC by T. Dungan at 02:50 PM on Oct 04, 2022.
Purpose: Clarification of allowable calculators to be used in licensure examinations
Date of Coverage: 01/01/2020 - 10/04/2022
Tracking no: #PRC-661214062400

Dungan 02:50 PM, Oct 04, 2022 

To whom this may concern:

I am writing this message to request a copy of the list of allowable calculator models to be used in the Forestry Licensure Examination this October 26 to 27, 2022. Though the PRC website still includes the CASIO FX-991ES and FX-991ES Plus models, respectively, as allowable calculators, a supposed memorandum prohibiting the use of the aforementioned calculators was published last year. I would like to seek clarification regarding the allowable calculator models to be used not only in the FLE but for future LEs as well.

Thank you and stay safe.
