Dear Students and friends

There is three more months pending for your CA final May exam. Whether you are writing single group or both groups, if you prepared systematically and presented effectively, then you will be a CA after declaring your Results. I was followed the below methods at the time I was a CA student.

4 Effective learning techniques for theory papers

Read

Read carefully each and every point. You can use markers for underlining important points. Some of the area you are required to question in order to seek an answer. Read with full concentration so that u can learn more effectively.

Remember

After reading certain area, close your book and try to remember the area you had learned. If you are not able to remember what you had learned again read. This is a trial and error method. You can write short notes which will support what you had learned. By looking this short point you can able to remember.

Think

After completing reading, you must think what you had learned today. You may be missed out certain point you had learned, so again read the missed out points. This exercise will improve your memory power and effectiveness.

Revise

After few days over, revise what you had learned with the short notes you had prepared already. Revision is so important.

How to read

Silent reading is better to learn effectively.

How to improve memory

Use mnemonic technique. Ex:- VIBGYOR( Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, yellow, orange, Read).

For problem papers

Good conceptual understanding and more exercise of problem with out looking in to the solutions. Why do you refer the solutions at the time of solving problems? If you refer the solution, it will kill your problem solving and analyzing skills. If you fail problem paper, pause a second, and correct it.

Effective presentation

CA Final theory questions are purely practical and knowledge assessing. So bring all the relevant points and write it in your way.

Write with a good heading and point to point presentation. Your value added points will fetch more marks.

Wish  you all the best
