03 November 2007 I work in a 5 day (never know what hours) week job with saturday and sunday off. Kindly suggest me some easy to grasp, precisely written, exam oriented books for all the subjects for CA Final (May 2008). I like books that detail on concepts with continuity rather than in a question-answer format. Salary is a necessity, else I would have quit my job and joined an institute for help.
ps. Currently, I am illiterate and ignorant towards CA as my work or life is away from any CAs or eager CA students. I have no one to take guidance around. Can someone be my mentor?

05 November 2007 Thank you so much for the advise and encouragement Sir. I have three more questions.
I would like to know what would be the best time to call you if i required your advise.
Padhuka - is in a question and answer format. I never attended any classroom sessions. So these books are a bit tough for me to understand the subject easily as they are not continuous. Do I need to change the way I study to make best use of these books?
Can you guide me which subject to start first? I feel theories are easy, accounting subjects are interesting and taxes are tough.

05 November 2007 Thank you Sir. I noted down the books and authors. I live in Chennai. I am going to move from my current address. I will post my address as soon as I shift.

Sir, I want to clear in May 2008 both groups. Can you guide me which subject to start first? I feel theories are easy, accounting subjects are interesting and taxes are tough.

I will buy those books and start my studies right away.
