Study Material and Strategy to prepare for November 2020 CA Exams
Due to the outbreak of the global pandemic COVID-19, regular life has come to a halt. The global pandemic not only had adverse economical and health effects on the people, but it has also brought in the clouds of uncertainties in our lives. Keeping in mind the exponential rise in the number of cases with every passing day it is difficult to say when life will get back to normal.
Dealing with uncertainties can be quite challenging and cumbersome. It leaves us helpless, incapable to plan and thus distracted and disoriented in life.
One such uncertainty that really took its toll over CA Students was regarding the May 2020 CA Exams. The CA Exams that were scheduled to start in May were first postponed to June and later to July. As the July attempt was approaching and cases of COVID-19 were still going up at an exponential rate there was a rising tension among the students whether/not the ICAI will conduct Exams. A lot of students were demanding that the ICAI Exams should be postponed but some students were also of the opinion that exams should be held. In this regard, ICAI released a notification, which said that the students now have the option to Opt-Out, that is can give their exams t in November.
Students who have Opted-Out now have buffer time to prepare for November 2020 ICAI Exams. There was a lot of confusion and distraction in the past couple of months which led to frustration amongst students and deviated them from studies. But those of you who have decided to Opt-Out, this is a golden opportunity for all of you. Go grab it!
In this article, we are covering the applicable study for November 2020 ICAI Exams and also strategies followed by All India Rank holders. Hope you all will utilize this time to its best and nail your exams:
