Quick Summary
This discussion offers guidance for a 35-year-old looking to restart their CA Final exams after a 10-year gap, while working full-time and managing family responsibilities. Key advice includes conducting a time audit, attending fast-track classes for updated subjects like DT and IDT, and utilising commute time effectively. The suggestions also emphasise consistent study discipline, aiming for exemptions in subjects, and practising with mock tests to ensure readiness for the exams.

I cleared my second group in Nov 19 when I had full time job and household responsibilities, though it wasn't my first attempt. Here are some practical tips:

1.Start with time audit of your schedule. Find out time slots for studies.

2. Considering break in studies, try to attend some fasttrack class for DT and IDT to have quick updates on the subject.

3. Have at least 2 slots of 2 hours continuously in morning and evening.

4.Use your commute time wisely using voice recordings or reading short notes.

5. Use morning time when you are fresh for reading theory. Evening for solving questions and sums.

6. Invest on amendment notes for DT and IDT.

7. Plan for 60+ in at least one subject.

You can refer to this article it might help you to Study with office; https://www.caclubindia.com/articles/how-to-study-while-working-without-getting-distracted-45785.asp

Make discipline to study regularly 

Take Fast track batches of all the subjects (1 month=1 Subject i.e 4 months). With classes try to give chapter-wise tests as it will improve your presentation skills.

Once it gets complete you need to do self-study for the next 2 to 3 months and also give the Full syllabus mock test to check your time management.

You are good to crack the exam.

Complete 100% syllabus of all the subjects and prepare for exemption all subjects and not just passing.

In the case of hard papers, it will be easy to attempt the paper as u have prepared with the mindset of exemption.
