In general, yes. However, most Universities will not allow a programmable calculator to avert cheating. At University level, students are expected to be far beyond the trivial "add & subtract" so calculators are just for speed and accuracy. Not a problem.
As for your MCAT (congrats, btw!)
I need one for the basics addition, subtraction but mostly multiplication/division and basicaly just need a cheap one from the dollar store. I think we should skip teaching kids basic math drills and teach them calculator skills as soon as they can count to ten. I'm not taking an MCAT for at least four more years. If I am not allowed to use a calculator for the addition, subtraction, multiplacation and division, I will fail and will never get into vet school and if I cannot not get into vet school, finishing high school is not worth it to me.
