You really don't have that many choices. Most people bring either BA35 or BA II P. series along with the TI30X II

[MaybeYesMaybeNo]

How about TI-30XA? Is financial calculator helpful for FM exam?

You'll definately want a financial calculator for the FM exam. Not having one will put you at a huge dissadvantage and the test makers assume that you will be using one when they write many of the questions. I used the BA 35, which is less then $20. More expensive models have more features, but are also harder to use and not necesarily better.
