CA Final Nov 2017 Study Plan
CA Final exams ofNov 2017 are coming closer. So we have sufficient time for exam preparation. ICAI alreadydeclared CA Final results. Last to last attempt (Nov 2016) ICAI declared verylow pass percentagethat means we have to do morehard work. Our preparationtime tableshould be started from 1stAugust 2017. Here we have almost 3 months for preparation.If you follow given study plan, damn sure you can get 60 + marks in each and every paper.
Here I’m giving study plan for 3 months. We can definitely complete our preparation in 3 months very easily. In this 3 months preparation you have to do 3 times of revision for CA Final exams. Below I am givingthe studyplan for CA Final exams preparation.
Preparing For Examinations
1. A student is required to prepare thoroughly for examinations well in advance and to devote at least two hours daily for studies while undergoing Articled Training.
2. During leave period at least 14 to 16 hours’hard workis required.
3. Avoid mobiles, internet and television as far as possible.
4. Students must study from study material and do practice from practice manual. Wherever a particular topic or point is not clear, a student may refer to a standard text/reference book.
5. Students should refer suggested answers of questions set in last five/six examinations and RevisionTest Papers. It is strongly recommended to solve the questions first without referring to solutions and then comparing the answers with the solutions given. Such an approach would help in knowing point of mistake and presentation pattern of an answer.
6. In law papers,Section andits provision is to be given correctly. If a student is not sure aboutthe Sectionnumber then he should not quote the same.
