The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) issued back on March 4, 2004, Memorandum Circular No. 2004-06 the list of brands and models of non-programmable calculators that are allowed in all licensure examinations.
Back on April 18, 2018, however, the PRC announced that it will be prohibiting two of the most profoundly used calculators – which has now been updated as Memorandum Circular No. 2018.
Detailed below is the updated list of allowed calculators to be used in all PRC examinations. This list is supposed to guide examination personnel and examinees alike to ensure that the results of the licensure exams are valid and reliable.
