Guidance to pass CWA intermediate both stages in June 09

hi Ashok,

can u please provide me ur email-id

actually one of my friend is doing MBA and he has some queries which i think u can easily answer.

pls revert me at rajeevaggarwal @ in.com

In simple terms dont do a lot of research on what to learn and what not to learn. It doesnt work in a professional examination. Expect the unexpected.

What to do:

1. Its good that you are doing both groups together.

2. Ensure that you know the study materials inside out. You should finish reading from the first page till the last page of the study material of each subject at least once COMPULSORY. Somehow, magically it gives a lot of confidence. This confidence building is what is important.

3. Do past papers. Suggested answers. If you want to refer any books always refer to the recommended authors which are listed in the prospectus.

4. For direct and indirect tax papers ensure that you are updated and also read the supplements that the Institute provides.

5. For Accountancy (Cost or Financial) practice as many problems as you can.

6. Focus on understanding than roting and by hearting.

7. It eventually boils down to those three hours. Keep your confidence high at all times (easier said than done).

8. Never loose sight of the reason/purpose why you started to do this course in the first place.

9. Take pride in the fact that when you eventually do pass you will be one among the minority of 2 in every 100 that attempt.

10. Leave the rest to God.

Hope this helps. It helped me though.

All the best.
