Hello to all my dear friends, First of all Best of luck for your coming Nov-2016 Exam, Before July-2016 I am also CA student but now I clear in july-2016 with distinction in 3 subjects namely:- ISCA, AUDIT, ACCOUNTS. I try to give some suggestions on How to score 60+ in ISCA or also share my exam strategy.

Here is some important things you need to follow while preparing ISCA:-

1. First of all, don't underestimate ISCA because it has power to stop your dream or break your dream, so take it as challenge to score 60+ in ISCA.

2. When I prepare ISCA, I make mnemonics for point wise answer (for this I refer Mr. Manish Valecha book) or I also make notes for some difficult question's.

3. Second most important thing is REVISION, make proper plan for revision. Don't take too much stress for this. I know everyone makes plan but when we talk about execution, some problems are occurred however, you must try to execute your plan, the two words CA are waiting for you.

4. My plan for ISCA, I used to learn ISCA in morning for 3-4 hours daily.

One day before exam strategy:- Here I tell you my strategy after exam of AMA, I reach home 6.00 or 6.30. Take rest for 1 hour atleast. Then I take my plan diary (YOUR PLAN ARE WELL WRITTEN, IT'S HELP) I saw 3-4 chapters I write in my plan diary after AMA exam to built confidence. on next morning balance chapters I complete before evening. After that I revise all mnemonics and other difficult questions. on exam day before 12.00 PM, I revise only mnemonics and difficult questions.

First impression is last impression:- I write 2-3 questions well and I also try charts and diagram for point wise answer, I think it should help provided your answer is right.

ICAI study Material language in ISCA exam:- VERY VERY important:- I follow this strategy, You must be learn points wise answer points headings, internal matter are may be differ, for other question just know the meaning and write in own language. however if you able to learn, it would be added advantage. but don't take too much stress, just solid your mnemonics.

Hope this article on my real exam strategy would be helpful, for other plan contact on my Email id. (However my plan is according to my conditions, it may be differ. You may be adopt but I suggest to make your plan himself according to your need)

Strategy for Audit and Accounts.

This strategy is based on my timings and my strengths, so plan your strategy according to your need.

For Audit

1. you must strong or have detailed knowledge on SA, CARO, AS, Companies act section.

2. For balance part of audit:- Do it last.

my personal strategy on audit:- Confidence matter, for built confidence I prepare my first part(SA, AS, CARO etc) then 60% of syllabus automatically cover, I prepare audit in morning until evening, after that I take up practical subject.

I also use charts or diagram in may attempt, I think it's help me to score well, but your answer must be right.

How to write answer of SA Or AS or Section based question:- First if you confident about SA no. etc then quote otherwise not. Your own language may be used but relates exam problem.

For Accounts:-

1. First I finish AS section completely, all AS is important-Remind always. 40-50% Syllabus cover by AS.

2. Then balance chapters.

I make my plan for day for all subject, I used to make dairy or plan on paper paste on Wall. I.e Daily targets, When target is complete, This increase my confidence.

For getting proper plan just think & take paper and make your plan according to your need.

Best of luck for your exam.

Jatin, marks can only be guaranteed when you prepare in the best possible way and evaluate yourself thoroughly before every exam. The best possible way to do that is to go through all the relevat topics and study materials and related stuffs in a thorough manner. You must go through the practice manual, revision test papers, mock test papers, chapter wise analysis and suggested answers of all the subjects and topics in a detailed manner. For ISCA specific preparations you can go through many free notes that are available.
