Good news and bad news. The good news is that, Yes it is similar to MS
Excel. Many of the functions and operations work in almost the exact
same manner. Under the hood (things that are not obvious to the casual
observer) the software operates in a decidedly different fashion. Calc
was designed to work with spreadsheets in a very efficient manner but it
can in no way be considered a clone of Excel.
The bad news is that I would not recommend using the OpenOffice Suite
for someone trying to earn a specialist degree in Microsoft. Excel and
Calc have too many things different in their methods and operation. You
didn't mention what school you are attending but many of them offer
Microsoft products at a student discount.
Best of luck in getting your degree!
