Old syllabus versus New syllabus

As per my knowledge,

In FR paper, guidance notes such as mutual funds, share based payments etc (in old syallbus) are inserted as chapters. Merchant bankers is an additional topic to prepare in new syllabus.

For SFM paper, u need not worry....99% is of same syllabus. No need to search and prepare for that 1%.

For Auditing paper, some guidance notes like conslidated fin. a/cs etc., are converted into regular chapters. New chapter included is sarbanes oxley act.

For Law, new topics are allied laws such as banking regulation act, money laundering act, insurance act, insurance regulatory act......are introduced.

MY TIP FOR LAW (for old students),

As allied laws covers 30 marks which streches for 5 questions....

Prepare in the following manner:

1. Competition Act

2. FEMA Act

3. Interpretation of statutes

4. Banking regulation Act

From these 4 chapters we can score 24 marks as in all previous attempts these were covering regularly,

=>>  for only 6 marks we have to study rest of the allied laws. So, keep much concentration on these 4 chapters and corporate laws. It is a time mangaement factor and i succeed with this technique.

@ Anit: Strategy as above is only to pass in exam, but not in subject point of view,

Chapters such as SEBI, SEBI guidelines, SCARA are interlinked chapters and is having scope to have one question or max.2 questions which takes more time than to prepare the 4 chapters which i said as above.

In one line, SEBI is also important but much time taking in preparation as well as revision.

ALL THE BEST.......
