fr like imagine not being able to do an exercise you know how to do correctly bc you forgot the value of pi or some poop

i thought the calculus professor was goofing around back in september when he told us we need to memorize the whole sin/cos of pi, pi/2 etc

Totally agree — banning calculators is one thing, but not offering support materials and then raising the passing bar feels really unfair. Guessing doesn’t get you through multi-step problems with the right formulas!
