CA IPCC exam results are just out
and we had the opportunity to interact with toppers and bring to
you their success stories and close sneak peek into their motivating
secrets.
Meet Vaibhav Garg, who hails from Panipat- the city of the Pandavs ! He was doing his IT training when he received the news which left him speechless . Ardent believer in confidence & faith, he is planning to stay focussed for his CA finals also.
Let us find out what was his strategy & how he has achieved this
success:
Vaibhav, first of all many congratulations
to you from the whole team of CAclubindia!!
Thank
you Sir, thank you very much!!
So, how are you feeling now and what
was your first reaction when you got this news?
I was
speechless! I don’t have words. I was just shocked after seeing
the result.
Ok and what was the first thing you
did as soon as you heard that you are the AIR-3rd rank?
Actually
I was in IT training so I called my mom and said that I secured
the 3rd rank.
What was your mom’s reaction?
She was
speechless!! There were tears in her eyes.
As you were in class so how did you
get to know that you secured AIR 3rd rank?
Actually,
I got a call from my center where I did the coaching. My Sir told
me that I have secured the 3rd rank.
So, as you have now secured an AIR
3rd rank and the pass percentage was also very low this time, are
you feeling the pressure for CA Final now as expectations from everyone
must be very high?
I am
not under any pressure, instead I am fully excited and ready also.
Great!! So, were you expecting rank
in IPCC?
Actually,
I wasn’t expecting any rank. Exams were good but I wasn’t really
expecting rank.
Ok, so whom would you like to thank
who helped you in achieving this success, any special mention?
Special
mention – first of all to my Sir “Pankaj Sir.” He was a great teacher
and guide and then to my family and my friends who were fully supporting
me.
Great! So, currently are you taking
classes in Delhi or in Panipat only?
At Panipat
only – IT training at ICAI Branch of Panipat.
Wonderful! You know, we don’t often
see that from Haryana people are getting ranks in CA so how are
you feeling about that?
I can’t
just express my feelings in words. It seems wonderful.
Ok, so now that you secured a rank,
what would be your strategy for articleship and CA Final?
Frankly
Sir, I am not yet ready but I will be focussed and work hard. I
will try my best to get a rank from AIR 3 to AIR 1 in the finals.
Ok great !! So, can you share your
strategy or time table with us so that other students or your juniors
can get guidance out of it?
There
was no proper time table. I felt that one can study at one’s own
ease as it’s easy to prepare a schedule but not easy to follow the
same.
Basically, my coaching classes completed by the month of October
and as I had to attend the classes at my center, I didn’t get the
sufficient time for self-study. Almost in last one month, I did
self-study. I covered the practical subjects in the classes itself.
In that last month, I put more effort over my theory subjects so
that I can create a balance between both of them. At last, the result
is there.
Ok, so what is the most important
thing that students should take care of, while writing the exams?
One shouldn’t
lose confidence; rather should keep the faith in oneself. Prior
to exams, some students assume CA exams are difficult, so that shouldn’t
be the case. One shouldn’t lose the confidence; that’s it!

Ok, so you too might have faced the
stress during the exams so can you share what you did in order to
reduce your stress?
I used
to chill out with my friends and family. It doesn’t mean that during
exams, one would just go on studying. Besides studies, one should
also try to take out sometime for oneself so that one can relax
one’s mind.
Ok, so how many hours you used to
study during the exams?
I didn’t
count the no. of hours, I allotted for my study schedule(smiles)
but I used to study for10 to 12 hours (approx.) during the exams.
Great, so apart from studies, what
are your other hobbies or area of interest that passionates you?
I just
love cricket!
So, are you ready to enjoy the upcoming
World Cup Series? Seems like you are not going to miss a single
ball?
Yes (Smiles).
I am fully ready for it and not going to miss a single match.
So, who is your favourite player?
AB de
Villiers (South Africa).
That’s nice!! So, who is your favourite
team in this World Cup apart from India?
Apart
from India, I am cheering South Africa.
Great! So, are you a member of CAclubindia?
Not yet.
I hope you would become
a member now and will use it more often.
Sure
Sir.
Any message for your friends or juniors?
Just
be confident and have faith in yourself, you can do anything.
It was wonderful talking to you and
I wish you all the best from the whole team of CAclubindia for your
CA Final and I am very sure that after CA Final results of yours
we will be again interacting and taking your interview.
Sure
Sir. Thank you very much!
