I’ll be using the BA II Plus. Are people bringing a spare battery? Do these things ever die?
 
when did you buy yours? if in the past year you are good. If not why not just swap it out before the exam.
 
By the time I show for the L2 exam my calculator will have 2 years old, what about that? Will need extra battery? I have the plus proffesional.
 
I will bring spare BA II Plus Pro, thus 2 BA II Plus Pro. Also, I will bring batteries just in case.
 
I got the BA 2 plus when I first started undergrad. Never had to replace battery yet and it’s 7 years old. That being said, I bought an extra calculator couple days before exam and returned it after exam. Never had to use it but I also didn’t want to fumble with screws and small batteries
 
BA 2 Plus Pro is great investment and is not expensive at all. I bought it via Amazon.
 
I am going to buy an extra today, probably won’t use it and then I’ll return it later…
 
don’t bring a new battery to exam day. Change the battery 1-2 weeks before exam day, use it for practice as much as you want, and be ok on exam day.
 
And in which pocket I will bring pencils, eraser, pencil sharpener (LOL!), 2 calculators and battery if I must not have a bag? There is also passport and admission ticket even glasses that I like to put on while writing and reading? All of it I must bring inside in my hands?
 
Is the Plus Professional much better than the Plus? what else can it do that mine can’t?
 
I don’t know what Plus (no Pro) can do because I do not own one, but Pro looks much better so this was decision why I have choosen Pro not Plus.LOL!
 
Sounds like you will need a utility belt and combat trousers to carry all your equipment and tools! I hope there isn’t a dress code!?
 
Tomorow 5 AM , I’ll drink a pint of coffee without sugar and then directly to airport taking a flight to testing destination.
