19 January 2013 Hello friends,

Basically I am addressing this query to all the experts. I am an MBA(Finance) and have over 10 years of experience in heading research and analytics.

I left my CA-Final some 5-6 years back after multiple attempts. My main reason for not clearing was:

1. My writing speed - all the papers I was able to complete only up to 75 marks on average. So I used to score 192, 197 188 etc. of total 320-325 marks of paper actually attempted.

2. MICS - Back 5 years, i used to mug up each and every word of the module and write up the same in paper. But somehow I never score more then 45 in MICS. And now since the material has changed and certain topics have become more technical, i am finding it very difficult to study this subject especially.

I am sure if I solve this 2 issues, I CAN be through the exams.

I specially need guidance from the seniors about how to manage MICS. If I just read past question papers, will be it be okay?

Any special advice as I am giving exam after nearly 5 years.

Help appreciated.

19 January 2013 In my opinion you should practice writing exams at home. Solve RTP's and try and complete them in 2 hrs 45 mins instead of the allotted 3 hrs. This should help you complete your exams on time in the exam hall.
For MICS, i think understanding the concepts is far more important than just mugging up the course. Its huge.
I think these should help you.

19 January 2013 It will be nice if u can practice writing the exam in three hours and than check it. You can take help of suggested solutions for previous years.
Regarding MICS, first my experience, I got 78 marks from self study, as i was expecting around 90 but marking was tough.
If u find it to understand the concept than u can master the art of writing the answers as provided in the study material and RTP, using the same language is important. Trust me sometimes just mugging up the answer,(Ratta Marna) works better than understanding the concepts.

25 January 2013 Your solution is that you neednot mug up anything. It is to be presented in your own words and to the point reply to all the question will not be a hurdle in getting through in the examination. Try this.
