See bro First of all Its really good that you wanna get rank.But predicting rank just by schedule is not possible.More than your schedule you I.Q matters.Just give your best shot in preparations.Brush up wid your basics.Give your 100%.All the best to you

Number of hours spent on studies is not important... Quality work, hard & smart work is essential... Any subject you choose.., 1st finish off those chapters which you find easy thoroughly so that during revision you can spend very less time on those chapters.. All the best

See its good that u had planned and u want to get rank ..........i want to suggest that :

1. When u complete 1 subject and after that u dont read it for 3 Months u have to start from beginning.If u start in May FM and then read it directly september ur hardwork will be waste.

2.When u read 1 or 2 subject of all month u will be bored and u wont be able to give 100% quality.

3. For rembering revision is must and it must be at very short time. For example YOU HAVE TO GIVE DAILY 1 HOUR FOR REVISION. You should plan your schedule accordingly so that you revise it atleat in a week.

If in a theory subject when u read any chapter you have to give e.g., 7 hours. Than after 2 days just shuffle up your pages in your boring time. It will take 2 hours. After a week revise it and it will take30 minutes.Than after you will have to just see overview and remeber after that atleast in a week atleat one time you have to read it in a fast track way and will take hardly 10-12 minutes(This you have to do when you are feeling bored not in a regular time)

CRUX : Continious revision is must

4. I advise you to divide a subject in 16 parts : That is 4 Months* 4 Week.

So divide your 8 Subjects into 8*16=128 different parts.

Now make sequence starting from most difficult parts.Remeber you will do continious revision.When u read today 2 parts than as i had mentioned above you will daily do revision as i mentioned above.

5.At september you will be through and no part would be old or untouched for long time.

After september start write 1 past paper and 1 past RTP daily as at that time you will give atleast 8 -10 hours for ur studies and do revision in rest time. Learn from your mistakes u had done in writing practice paper daily.

If you follow this you will be 100% confidence at exam day and even you will not feel bored as you are changing the subject while reading.

Rest is your choice plan and read in a manner in which you are comfortable.

But whatever you plan be strict to it and follow it.

ALL THE BEST TO YOU............

@ Nitin, Aanya, Riswa & Vikas:Thank you all for your valuable advices (especially Riswa Ma'am for providing suggestions in an elaborative manner). And finally I request to please suggest me as to which reference material is preferrable for FR, SFM and AMA. I already purchased DS Rawat's book for AS and it is very good. It only contains that much stuff that is required for my exams, and it is written in a very simple and lucid manner.

So for the subjects I mentioned (i.e., FR, SFM and AMA) also, I want books which contains only that many problems which will be sufficient for my exams. For instance, Paduka book contains way too many problems (eg. over 90 problems in Marginal Costing, AMA) which is practically not possible to do all those. I want to do all the problems in one particular book (+ practice manual). So please tell me which books will meet my requirements for the subjects I mentioned.

Thanks!

very simple

just u think calmly ..

question your self" can i get a rank"

if u get atleast .01% of doubt to get a rank you will not get a rank 100%..

if not surely you will get a rank..

its all depends on preparation..it should be qualitative not quantitative

its all depends on time managemnet at exam..

and balancing various pressures..and tensions..

But

All is well...when you are confident on you..

you will get confident on you only when your preparation is well enough to succeed your goal

my tip:

just visualise your dream(as of now you like to get a rank) just visualise on morning and sleeping time like

"you preparaing exams very well,you have given exams very well and you are confident on ur results results declared,wow..you feel great that you got a rank..and celebrations started at ur home..and all are wishing you"

if you can do visualisation like this it is nothing but you are giving commands to your subconcious mind that you want to get a rank ..so that you definetely work good and get your rank ..

Example:

generally on our child hood we use to go to temple and ask god to pass the exams if we pray god daily what we are doing indirectly is we are giving some commands to subconcious mind about your intention to get a rank..so you definetely pass exam because we read books for sure..we cannot pass the exam by mere pray we should read..other wise we cannot pass..so we can conclude surely that here god has done nothing

it is you who did it..

it is you..

yes..it is really u..

definetely you

.

But unfortunately we give credit to god also...

@ Go Green:

For Cost and FM I would suggest only paduka.

Now your question is there are too many problems and its difficult to solve all problems :

I want to share the way i used to do : Like the chapters in Cost - Standard ,Marginal etcc... and in FM Capital structure, FOREX etc..... Very big chapters but not an issue follow only one way :

DIVIDE AND RULE

You have May to September now you will daily do only 5 Sums ....for e.g., you start from Marginal than do only 5 sums perfectly next day look at previous 5 sums overview and than do other 5 sums...likewise complete the chapter.

This way you can complete big chapters in a very lusid way.......and you will enjoy learning

So for Cost and FM (specially u want rank) i suggest only paduka.

For Accounts do your classes material......

I think your plan is fine and now it is time to execute the same properly.

I would request you to just stick to the basics and avoid making unnecessary experiment with your study.

All the best

Your plan is very much ok but revise atleast 15 minutes a day what you have studied on previous day this will help you boost your confidece.

You can get rank once you have determined

Best of Luck in advance for study plan and rank determination.

Can I get a rank?

This question cant be answered by anybody else other than you, If you believe you can, you can and if not you cannot.

No of hours wont determine your rank. Give your best and leave no stone unturned. Study Material (For subjects other than DT/IDT) should be referred. There are no shortcuts to success. Prepare to the extent you are satisfied.

For costing, you need conceptual clarity rather than number of problems. This particular paper has been unique each time. I had done it entirely from material. And for IDT had referred 3 reference books. Each one is different so should be your preparation. You are the best person to choose your preparation schedule and technique.

Good Luck.
