    I am really annoyed that they have only just done this... I have now acquired 3 calculators during my actuarial studies, none of which are on the list...
    I daren't sit an exam without at least one back up, so now I have to buy two calculators... Hopefully work will pay for one of them?
    Anyway, which ones do people recommend?
    One of my Casio calculators has the distribution function which I have found useful in stats exams instead of laboriously using the tables... I suppose most of the calculators on the list have similar functions, but feedback from anyone would be gratefully received.

    Seriously it isn't that bad. My calculator broke down during a numerical exam and I still passed! It isn't until 2008 anyway and you barely need a calc post CT subjects. I would recommend not acting until early 2008 as I imagine they will update the list, we spotted that one calculator on the list wasn't available to buy in the shops as a newer model had since come out. I know we all crave that nifty financial one, just to stroke of course, wouldn't have a clue what to do with it!
