FIRST OF ALL AVERY GOOD MORNING TO ALL MY CCI MEMBERS.RECENTLY I HAVE COME TO KNOW ABOUT THE CHANGES IN CPT PATERN AND ON THE DEMAND OF MY FRIENDS,I DECIDED TO WRITE ON THIS TOPIC " CPT - CHALLENGE FOR NEW COMERS ".....FRIENDS WHEN EVER A CHANGE IN PATTERN COMES OR INSTITUTE INTRODUCES A NEW COURSE,THE RESULT ALWAYS GOES DOWN.....SO BE READY FOR IT ..............!!!!!

                CPT - CHALLENGE FOR NEW COMERS

1... INTRODUCTION

FIRST OF ALL I WILL LIKE TO TELL U THAT ICAI HAS BROUGHT A NEW SCHEME FOR CPT.AS PER LATEST SCHEME NOW EVERY STUDENT HAS TO GET A MAINIMUM OF 30 % IN EVERY SECTION...SO I THINK IT HAS BECOME A DIFFICULT THING FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT WELL IN MATHS AND STATS SECTION.SO ITS A ADVICE TO ALL TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY SECTION..HERE I AM DICLOSING SOME OF THE TIPS TO TACKLE NEW SCHEME OF C.P.T.

2... SOME TIPS TO TACKLE NEW PATTERN

A... EQUAL IMPORATNCE

NOW THE POINT LIES HERE THAT EVERYONE WILL HAVE TO WORK A LITTLE MORE HARDER THAN BEFORE.IF U ARE WEAK IN MATHS AND STATS SECTION,PLEASE DONT IGNORE IT AND TRY TO SOLVE AS MANY QUESTIONS AS U CAN.PAY MORE ATTENTION ON ECONOMICS AND MATHS AND STAT SECTION.AS IF U GET 14 MARKS IN ONE SECTION AND EVEN IF U ARE PASS OVERALL,STILL U WILL BE DECLARED FAIL....SO GIVE EQUAL IMPORATNCE TO ALL SECTIONS.

B... DEPTH

FRIENDS I WILL ADVICE YOU TO NOT TO CRAM ANYTHING AND JUST TRY TO GO IN THE DEPTH OF THE SUBJECTS.AS WE ARE GIVEN CHOICES SO THERE IS NO POINT OF CRAMING ANYTHING.IF U KNOW THE CONCEPT AND UR BASICS ARE CLEAR,I GIVE ASSURANCE THAT U WILL DEFINATELY SCORE WELL....!!!

C...SMARTNESS RATHER THAN HARD WORK

FRIENDS I AM NOT DENYING THE FACT THAT HARD WORK IN NOT REQUIRED IN C.A...IT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CRITERIA TO CLEAR CA EXAMS....BUT IN CPT IF U ARE SMART ENOUGH AND STUDY INTELLIGENTLY AND SMARTLY,U WILL DEFINATELY GET THROUGH.

D... SCANNERS AND REVESIONARY PAPERS

FRIENDS DONT IGNORE SCANNERS AND REVISIONARY PAPERS,AS THEY WILL HELP YOU TO GET AN IDEA OF YOURSELF,IN OTHER WORDS U WILL COME TO KNOW ABOUT UR PERFORMANCE LEVEL.TRY TO SOLVE MORE AND MORE PAPERS AND U WILL DEFINATELY GET THROUGH.

E... BEFORE STARTING ACCOUNTS SECTION,TRY TO HAVE AN IDEA OF THE BASIC CONCEPTS READ IN 11 AND 12 CLASS..AS IN CPT THERE IS NO EXTRA THING OTHER THAN 11 AND 12 CONCEPTS...SO THEY WILL HELP U A LOT TO SCORE BETTER.

F... MANY OF US CONSIDER MATHS AND STATS SECTION VERY VERY DIFFICULT, BUT ITS NOT SO...U CAN EASILY SCORE 20 TO 25 MARKS IN THIS SECTION...JUST TRY TO SOLVE AS MANY QUESTIONS AS U CAN AND ALSO CONSULT SUGGESTED...THEY WILL HELP U A LOT.

G... LAW IS A NEW BUT VERY INTERESTING SUBJECT...U CAN EASILY SCORE 30 TO 35 MARKS IN ITPROVIDED U TAKE IT SEROIUSLY.JUST TRY TO CONCENTRATE ON THE MATTER AND PLEASE DONT CRAM ANYTHING OTHER THAN SECTIONS...IF U WILL TAKE IT SERIOSLY IT WILL HELP U IN IPCC LEVEL ALSO.

H... NOW LETS COME TO ECONOMICS SECTION....NOW U WILL HAVE TO CHANGE UR THINKING IN IT....WITHOUT CRAMING IT, U CAN NEVER CLEAR THIS SECTION.AS U WILL HAVE HAVE TO CRAM FIGURES,MATTER,i.e RATES,MONETARY POLICIES,ETC....SO REVISE THIS SECTION ATLEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES.

3... CONCLUSION

JUST TRY TO CONCENTRATE ON THE ABOVE POINTS AND PERFORM YOUR BEST...PLEASE DONT LISTEN TO ANYONE IN EXAMS,JUST PERFORM BY YOUR OWN MIND...OHERS WILL JUST CONFUSE YOU...!!! SO BELIEVE IN URSELF.

THANKS
