i too am preparing. do practice manual qt full first. then do theory and problems in developments in cost accounting. mainly abc costing for sums. pricing decissions is also guarantee small chapter. see standard costing formulas and solve some sums. with this u can answer upto 50+. this is my personal opinion. all the best. 

 

m also appearing for AMA on monday. go for chapter 10-16 as they are short & still carry fair amount of marks + ABC + service sector costing
