I certainly that so, that the professional version keys are too hard to press. Not a problem at work but yes, will be when you are struggling for time. I bought the professional one but didn't even bring in to the exams. Brought 2 normal BA II plus for the exams.

Does anyone else agree with Ishfaque that I can carry both BAII professional and BA II in the exam?

The more you use the professional, the softer the keys become

I don't know how "more" is this more and how much training my calculator would need to become softer. So far, I have not been noticing any signs of keys becoming softer and I don't know if I will be able to get those any softer before exam. I would still stick to my plan of carrying both plus and professional if that is allowed. However, I am not sure if plus is any softer although it looks soft from the appearance.

which one are you using everyday ?
I have the BA II plus professionak, and I have no issue with the keys. I feel like at the beginning i found them a little hard, but now, after using it almost everyday for months, I have no complain. and I really like the shape, the color, the design compare to the other one...hehehe, yes i'm a girl, on top of the performance, i'm also concerned with the look...

Yes, that's what I heard from CFA institute. I don't think I can handle 5. It will be too confusing for me. I think I need two and can handle them as long as they are of different colors.

Kidding you mean about being a guy or about not liking it?
