The financial calculator that you are required to buy at the first level teaches you things that a person would normally have never learnt. It changes the perspective altogether. I keep that fiancial calculator with me every time.It is kind of a magic toy!

The one that I have is Texas instrument BA II plus whereas you can get Casio ones alos. the fomer cost me Rs 3000 while the Casio ones cost around Rs 2000. Both work as effectively as each other.

Want to correct Basantji here....Its 4 year of relevant Indsutry Experience...for which they have a list of areas on which you should work on. Audit / Articleship is not counted in it.

True Basantji....it is a Magic toy for sure.....though it takes time to learn how to operate it inititally...but once you know it...then its a computer on hand with us....calculate EMI, IRR, and what not.

The fact that you have bought a calculator means you are no longer belong to the Lal pariwaar!

Basantji,
As I know for appearing in CFA level 1 (From USA one), 16 years of eduction will also work.
It means if you have Master degree or Engineering degree from India, it should work.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Cheers,
Bharat
