06 October 2009 Sir/Madam,

I am Ca Final Student. I am facing the problem that i could not attempt all the questions due to my very low writing speed however i know the answers n can attempt those questions.
More over i am getting the around 65% to 70% marks out of the attempted questions.
At present position i am able to solve the questions of 65 to 70 marks only.
If i can even just attempt all the question i can clear it easily..

So please suggest me how to increase the number of attempted questions?
as per my opinion, there is only problem of lack of practice but there is not much enough time remaining for practice for november2009 attempt..

What should i do ???

Thanks...

Adarsh

07 October 2009 Dear Sir,

Thanks for your support.

Yes, I used to write daily.. but its not too much time left for the exams right now that is the main problem due to which i cannot give that much time to practice in writing the questions. Time factor is there for practice..

At the other side, i have another problem that i am from hindi medium and my english reading speed is also very slow as compared to the hindi.. If i get medium lenght question, then i didn't get my time waste in reading, but if i see the costing papers question then it becomes problem & at the same time costing paper needs more speed with accuracy in calculations...

Please suggest some more tricks as i have not much time left to do practice in writing..

Thanks again for your valuable suggestions and support..
