    Yes, you are allowed to use a calculator in the CAT exam. However, you can not carry your physical calculators. Instead, there will be an online on-screen calculator provided by them. You are allowed to use it. This on-screen calculator only has some of the basic functions, such as division and a square root button. As a result, according to top scorers, you can't rely on that calculator much. You should practice solving questions with short cuts. Also, to develop speed in calculations, you should practice lots of sectional and full-length mock tests.

    Yes Shruti, calculator is allowed in the CAT exam. But this does not mean that you can carry your own calculator in the exam. You will be allowed to use an on-screen calculator that will pop up when you click on the calculator icon. It is not a scientific calculator but a simple one for general calculations only.
