Not in the classes I took. In high school, we used the calculators to help us with more complex (basically impossible by hand within a class period) problems, and did other sections with no calculator at all to master the basics. In college so far, it has been similar - in calc 3, all tests were no calculator, and we also had matlab and mathematica based projects that involved far more complex problems.
