Discuss your Nov 08 exam experience!!!

i appeared for second group, it was not that fine for me.

inspite the qp not that tough!

I APPRECIATE THE SERVICES OF  CA CLUB.

A VERY HELPFUL SITE INDEED !

At last the CA Final Exams are over. Hope the results will be good. I have written my Final Group -II.(Old syallabus) Overall the papers were easy except for insufficient time for completing Cost Management paper.Questions in IDT are OK,but could have given better questions. Any other views please.......

Dixit

I had attended the Both Groups. Accounts was a nightmare... Sureshot I am gonna flunk..... Even in second grp.... DT was kinda hard nut..... But rest went well.... Infact the most funniest paper was IDT.... Was too easy... And a shorty... I was able to complete it in 2hours 20 mins.....

ya...the question pattern set this time was different from the conventional ones set so far. The questions were tricky and concentrated on areas which were not taken up in the previous papers. Like for IDT, the definitions were for curing, commission agent which had hardly been asked in any exam. similarly in DT, they did not ask anythn from capital gains or pgbp which have the highest chances. In MICS, hardly questions were asked from the system development portion.In MAFA treasury bills were asked, again a shift from stereotype.In accounts the paper was too lengthy, though comparatively easy. I did CLSP n audit well. In audit also, bank audits were not asked. even in accounts paper, accounting standards did not form a major portion unlike earlier where around 25 mks of questions are based thereon.

Obviously the reason is the alternate days gap. I tried to do well but still being a Ca final exam, it cant be a lollipop for anyone except for people who worked very very hard. Though i did not fare well in few papers like Mafa n accounts as well as in IDT, i still feel the papers indicated a fresh look. Giving a gap n setting a coventional papers would definitely be unfair to people who appeared in previous exams. I appreciate ICAI's move on this note.

Exams are formidable to everyone but after clearing a tough paper, the sense of achievement is always more. easy paper reduces that sense.Dont know wht the results will be, i m afraid to even think. but i jus pray that we all get wht we actually deserve. n in case we do not swim across, may we get the courage to pursue it afresh...dn lose heart guys, Life is full of opportunities n failures should never stop us from crossing the mountains.......All the very best to everyone.....

Hi All!!

Happy days are back again!!!!!!!

i appeared for group 2 and have cleared my 1 grp last time..

did any1 managed to get the question of linear programing correct?????????

equation was treat to make but the graph ...... huh!!! i still cant guess... HOW COULD THOSE THREE LINES INTERSECT ??????????

QUESTION WAS WRONG!!!!!

 AND finally we got the ever awaited MAT in DT i was waiting for it for uite long..... was simple too....

And this for you SUJHIT  ... YOU SAY IDT PAPER WAS SHORT...... GET A LIFE ... I DOUBT YOU MAY PASS ACCOUNTS BUT I AM SURE YOU WILL FLUNK IN IDT........ BET ON IT.....

IT WAS ALL FILLED WITH FINANCE ACT AMENDMENTS 2007 AND ANSWERS REQD LOT OF EXPLANATIONS......

DT WAS A WELL DRAFTED PAPER AND MICS WAS AS USUAL... I DNT KNW WHY THE INSTITUTE HAS STILL KEPT THIS PAPER IN FINALS...

BEST WISHES TO ALL WHO APPEARED.......

CHEERS

hi

i appeared for both the groups of final (old).though the papers were differently formatted.grp1 was  manageable

YES I HAVE NOT MET NE1 EITHER WHO GOT THIS GRAPH CORRECT.....

QUESTION WAS SURELY WRONG..............

I gave my PE-II group II exam this time... For the efforts i took, I felt my performance was not satisfactory. Something makes me feel that i could hav done still better. Costing and FM paper and Income Tax were all definitely easy but costing was lengthy and i could n't attend for all marks. Overall my opinion is They have asked simple only but from those areas which students don't cover generally in classes and even during their study at home.

The exams are purely based  on Pschycology  of  students...  Any way  i  ll  be  happy  if  i  clear  this  time...

COSTING :-

YES LINEAR EQUATION WAS WRONG .. GRAPH CAN NEVER BE MADE IN +VE ARE LINES INTERSECTED IN NEGATIVE PORTION... WELL SPOTTED VISHAL 

thank god ... felt very happy to herar that LPP was wrong... 

i wrote both groups... first group i messed up with acc paper.. so i just pray that atleast i get a exemption in MAFA..

second group was a mixture ups and downs but a bit easy paper IDT to end exams with a smile...

being a optimist i expect 2nd group to be cleared and fxemption in MAFA..

i pray that we all pass

AND A VERY VERY SPL THANKS TO OUR CLUB WHICH HELPED ME A LOT THROUGH SHARED FILES... SPECIFICALLY IDT PAPER

"Giving a gap n setting a coventional papers would definitely be unfair to   people who appeared in previous exams. I appreciate ICAI's move on this note"

pahle jo pass huye hai  unse kya dushmani thi?

ONE DAY GAP KYA SOCH KE KIYA HE..ISKA LOGIC KYA HE..ITNE SALO KE SYSTEM KO KYO BADLA HE?HE KOI ISKA JAWAB ICAI KE PAS?

YES!........KHUD KE BACHCHO KO CA BANANE KE  LIYE YE SARE ELECTION LADKE POST LEKE MISUTILISE KARTE HAI RESOURCES KA..

Etna easy paper diya he ICAI ......MCBC.............

I have done my PE II exam, both the group, question paper very easy, but i am not able to complete with in a time espy in Costing paper, all question are asked for 5 marks, totally its comes to 20 question in 3 hrs. I am very confident in IT and Information and technology +60 marks. To clear both groups, more possitive chances are there.

Over all, the student have got exemption or cleared the group in this time because of the ICAI question papers asked easy.
