Help the students cum aspirants

CPT 781 views 2 replies

I request the readers to read it patiently (cos it is a big discussion but at the same time its an eye opener).

Recently i came across a query of a beginner (CPTian) and realised that uski problem(s),CA ,CS,CWA…karne wale student(s) ki bhi problem hai “ya” ho sakti hai.

 

The first thing which I am going to share with you all is that many of us have studied about SWOT analysis…dont worry… main padhane wala nahi hu.

 

According to many students the topic helps us to “earn” some marks…. They say it because they want to become CA to “earn” a handsome income.

 

Ab yeh baat maine kisi ko kahi toh usne mujhe kaha, “boss we can also apply this method in our daily life, it helps us.

 

” Hmmm baat toh sahi kahi “it will help us”.

 

BUT do we REALLY apply it?

No.

• Is it because hame hamari kamiyo aur khamiyo ki aadat ho gayi hai?

• Is it because we are not able to discover our weaknesses?

NO.

• IT IS BECAUSE WE ARE “NOT” READY TO ACCEPT OURSELVES.

Now you must be thinking kya hai ye sab….main baat pe aao. Maine kaha :“ok”.

 

General knowledgeOthers This query is : Open Vivek Daga ( Author ) 28 June 2012

I am a CA student, just given CPT exam. I am facing some problems.

* My social, financial, practical knowledge about the subjects is not so strong. Neither my general knowledge is so good, nor my current affairs.

* I watch television and switch ON to channels like ZEE Business and CNBC TV18, but I failed getting nothing.

* I am poor at Economy, these shares,..these financial problems, these dollars and all, these Budgets, The central & state governments,....

* I want to read newspapers, but hardly get 10 minutes and can not extract some sufficient part from that...

 * I want to have some tips about these practical things....

* What to do, what not to do..

* What are the practical things, on which, we have to stress upon.

* Help ,me to become a successful and perfect CA. Also, after my B.Com., my aim is to do MBA from a world class college, so for that, what preparations should I start doing from now on so as to have myself on to a proper place at that time. I ll be grateful to you for the part of my life....

 

 

 

Aap mein se kuch ko iski query saayad bakwas lage par mujhe nahi lagi. And I came up with these conclusions:

The reaons why he wrote these may be:

• Lack of awareness

• Lack of knowledge

• Lack of experience

• Lack of understanding

• Lack of maturity

• Lack of intention/interest

• Lack of patience

• Lack of GUIDANCE ,etc

I admire his “willingness” to know so many things. At least he is aware kaha kya kami hai but he is unable to fill the gaps.

 

 

Ye problem(s) kahi na kahi khub sare CA students ki hai.

I know many of us are more than an average student but we still consider ourself to be an average one cos we have our own definition for the word “average”.

I wish I could have helped him but the problem is the problems he mentioned… are very similar to my own. Agar koi ye soch raha hai ke inn problems se hamari CA ka kya relation…. Let me explain…

 

“TRADING ON EQUITY” ke baare mein toh suna hi hoga.

Ek concern jo profit earn karti hai usme debt capital ka bhi contribution hota hai (jiski wajah se profits me leverage effect dekhne ko milta hai)

Similar is the case with our CA . If we have the general knowledge other than our subjects it helps us to gain better in monetary and non-monetary form on completion of our course.

 

One can suggest - read NEWSPAPER (any financial newspaper). Attend social gatherings He/she is absolutely correct cos it makes a difference.

But hum mein se kuch itne “average” bhi hai jo agar newspaper padhne baithe toh bhi saayad kuch samajh na aaye. I am saying this because some student fails to decode the things.

 

It happens cos hame easy english/saral hindi aati hai par inki pure/shudh form hamare bas ki baat nahi. Apne dekha hoga coaching centers mein hame topics simple tarike se samajh aa jati hai cos we feel comfortable when we understands things in a proper manner in our own language….some of us still do rattafication :-(

 

Friends whenever I read about rankers and achievers in our curriculum they spoke about two challenges after becoming CA:

• REMAINING UPDATED

• COMMUNCATION SKILLS

 

Many are not getting jobs just because degree toh hai par knowledge thodi kam hai. So following the strategy of being pro-active instead of reactive is necessary.

I know some of you may not be having  gr8 solution(s) for his problems but I will still request you to provide reasonable suggestions, if any.

I did this gesture cos I follow the principle : “jyot se jyot jalate chalo”

Sorry if I wasted time of any one…I had no such intentions…it was just a way of presenting my thoughts.

Hey Hitesh, I really appreciate this and i absolutely agree with each and every words of yours. See knowledge is something you cant expect to earn in a day or two. It is acquired over a period of time. Main samajh shakta huun ki its difficult to understand business newspaper in the begining but trust me the more and more you read the more you will start understanding. Read business newspapers like Economic Times and business standards. I am not telling you to read entire paper. Just read those topics which you find bit interesting. Even if you can just devote 15minutes daily to economic times you will feel the change just in a month. I am pretty sure that everyone here is quite addicted to Facebook. You all do one thing- just like the pages of Economic Times, business Today, CNBC, Forbes. Just after liking these pages you will start seeing various posts by them through out the day. They usually share common happening business news which you can read while surfing FB. One more thing, there are few business news channels in Hindi too. You may start watching them like zee business, ndtv profit. You may not understand everything initially but you will be an expert very soon. Do make more and more use of internet on your mobile phone to search about any news or topic you are not understanding. One more thing i would like to recommend to every finance and commerce students here is to do read the book- "INDIA UNBOUND" by Gurucharan Das. This non-fiction book contains details about how India started developing after globalisation and liberalistation of Indian economy. I hope all these suggestions will definately help you and others. Thanks for your query. Best regards.
