Students' Choices for Math AI Chatbot

ChatGPTP ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Good: Helpful when your teacher isn't available to explain something. Now includes graphs and images.


The Bad: Can't log in with your Google account, but you can type your email in and it should work fine. Sometimes gives long explanations or different methods than your teacher uses. For best results, prompt it with your grade level, which technique to use, and how long to make the answer.
