Using the Texas Instruments TI-36X Pro for a university or board exam?

The Texas Instruments TI-36X Pro is a non-programmable, non-CAS scientific calculator — the category most exam boards permit. Even so, universities, board exams (such as India's AKTU and other university exams), and competitive exams each publish their own lists, and we have not yet verified a specific one for this model.
