Does this class have alot of homework?

Yes, we typically do two assignments a night because the class goes twice as 
fast as a normal class. We will do twelve units in one semester as opposed 
to six in one semester. However, some nights we will have 1 assignment or no 
assignment.

Do I have to buy an expensive TI calculator?

It is not required, but would be very helpful on homework.  We do have a 
class set of TI-83's for use at school.  My advice is: If you are going to 
be taking several more college prep math classes, then it would probably be a 
good long-term investment to purchase a TI-83 , a TI-83 Plus, a TI-84, or a 
TI-84 Plus for the rest of high school , college, and beyond.  They typically 
cost between $80- $120, however, I have seen them as low as $67 at Office Max 
or on E-bay.
