12 days left for exam, still totally unprepared

Kalyani (Student) (115 Points)

I skipped the May 2012 attempt of IPCC because I wasn't prepared. Now, I am in the same position again. I am familiar with the subjects. But I am not at all prepared. Should I try to get exemptions or study all subjects of group 1? I am confused and tense. I can't focus because of this. I'll appreciate if you guys can guide me through this. I am in a state of panic. My parents gave me one chance but I screwed it. And again I did the same thing.

Can you give me some important tips for studying? What are the topics I should focus on? Please suggest some study pattern. I'll appreciate it.

I am not at all prepared. I don't know squat about the minorities of the subject. I have completely negleted studies. I have no interest in the subjects except for FM. I am thinking about quitting CA, going for graduation and then doing CFA in my final year. Please guide me. Am I heading the wrong way?

Dear Kalyani, I feel you need mental stability to focus on what you can and what you cannot do. Do meditation for 15 minutes daily without thinking of anything. It will clear your mind from multiple thoughts. Then attempt first theory subjects. You cannot remember theory easily but you dont forget also the same easily. Focus on practical subjects like accounts, costing and tax as the exam comes near. It will give you confidence. All the Best.

Thanks a lot, Sasikanth. That was exactly what I needed. Exam fear does strange things to your mind. Thanks everyone.
