CA Final Study Plan for CA Final Exams
- A student is required to prepare thoroughly for examinations well in advance and to devote at least two hours daily for studies while undergoing Articled Training.
- During leave period at least 14 to 16 hours’ hard work is required.
- Avoid mobiles, internet and television as far as possible.
- Students must study from study material and do practice from practice manual. Wherever a particular topic or point is not clear, a student may refer to a standard text/reference book.
- Students should refer suggested answers of questions set in last five/six examinations and Revision Test Papers. It is strongly recommended to solve the questions first without referring to solutions and then comparing the answers with the solutions given. Such an approach would help in knowing point of mistake and presentation pattern of an answer.
- In law papers, Section and its provision is to be given correctly. If a student is not sure about the Section number then he should not quote the same.
