Office work: CA is one course where theoretical knowledge is combined with practical exposure. Your office work should not be considered as a hindrance to your studies. It is necessary platform for improving your understanding and applying your theoretical learning, besides contributing your interpersonal skills and personality development.
Responsibility: Give adequate respect to your Principle, Seniors, Faculty Members, Teachers and other students in general.
