 You'll not be allowed inside the Prometric centre with your own calculator. A calculator app is inbuilt into the PMP testing interface which can/has to be used instead.

Hi Vivek,

Yes, you can use a calculator during your PMP Certification Exam. You have two choices, either you can use the built-in calculator application through the computer screen, or you can ask the Prometric staff to provide a calculator to you. They will give you a non-programmable basic calculator. You’ll be requiring only some basic mathematical calculations and this calculator will be more than enough for all your needs.
 
Please note that you cannot take your calculator inside the test room. You have to deposit each and every personal item in the locker before entering the test room. You have to go inside the test room with bare hands. You’ll only be allowed to keep the key to your locker where your stuff is locked.
