I bought the calculator today. I thought it would be a good idea to buy it early so I can get as much practice with it as I can. I decided to get the Texas Instruments BA II Professional.
(I'm on a roll with the pictures!)
I chose this over the HP model because I had the HP10B in the past and learning how to use it was a pain. I spent an hour or so how to do the IRR (or something like that) and that's the only purpose I've needed it. For all other calculations I stuck to the good old trusty casio.
From past experience, learning how to use these calculators can be a challenge. I've found a guide that teaches you the basics of both the HP & TI calculators. I haven't read it properly yet, but sign up and check it out. It's free so it's worth it.
On a side note I only studied 1/2 an hour today when I was meant to do 2 hours. I will make it up during the week though. The good news is I finished reading 2 on the standards of professional conduct and did the questions at the end. I got 29/29 so I pleased with that. I just have to go over it every once in a while so I don't forget it.
208 days until the level 1 exam.
