That's a really thoughtful gesture, Yashika — sharing your CA Final study schedule after learning from your own experience and attempts. Many aspirants find it hard to navigate their preparation after articleship, especially when shifting from auditing practicals back to writing and revising theory.
If you have the study schedule attachment, feel free to upload it here — I’d be happy to help refine it or summarize it into a more accessible format for others.
Meanwhile, for those who need a reference, here's a sample 12-week CA Final study schedule (for both groups) that aligns with what many successful candidates like you follow:

🧠 Weekly Focus

Mon to Fri: 2 subjects (1 theory + 1 practical)
-
Sat: Weekly revision + attempt a mock test (3 hrs) on alternate weeks
-
Sun: Solve past papers / RTPs / discuss doubts with group / rest half-day
📌 Study Tips Based on Your Insight
-
✔️ Focus on mock papers — aim for 6+ per subject before exams
-
✔️ Simulate exam conditions (3 hrs sitting, no breaks, handwritten)
-
✔️ Write answers instead of just reading (like you said — typing ≠ memory)
-
✔️ Target 100% syllabus coverage by Day 60, last 30 days = pure revision
