Dear CS Students,
As CS December Exams are just round the corner so would request you to note some of useful suggestions from my side. I have also shared these suggestions through PMs and forums. Hope you find them useful:
1. First kindly appreciate that panic is not the solution or substitute for exam preparation. So never waste your time and think positively. Plan and start your study accordingly as early as possible. Stay away from unnecessary Exam stress.
2. You must understand few basic things necessary for CS preparation. So workout a study plan and study according to the same. You may also take help of your friends and seniors around. Also analyse the exam pattern properly.
3. Revision is very -2 important so prepare a good revision schedule and follow the same strictly. Good revision is a key to success.

IF YOU ARE PREPARING WELL FROM THE BEGINNING: |
4. If you are preparing for the exams from the very beginning then this is the time for revision and addition of some new and imp topics to your treasure. In CS do not change the books and notes quickly without sufficient reason. Stick to the notes and books selected earlier.
5. Give first preference to the study material provided by the ICSI. Especially for theory subjects like Company Law and Economic Law
6. In CS Exams Law basics must be strong so never hesitate to discuss the topics with your friend for better grip. A healthy discussion helps you recall provisions/contents in a much better way. This is one of my old suggestions but this is something very very important.
SCANNAER…BACKBONE OF CS
7. In CS scanner is one of the most vital tool to succeed. So after your initial preparation don’t forget to check your preparation from scanner. In my opinion every question of Scanner should be on your figure tips. This is very imp for your own confidence.
To complete the question given in scanner take the help of ICSI guideline answer, as the case may be.
8. For CS preparation it is also worthy to note that in CS the percentage of repetition of previously asked questions are a bit high as compared to CA so it is advisable that during study time note the imp topics or make short notes for them. It would be very helpful for you during last time revision. Prepare short notes for frequently asked questions and revise them properly.
USE BARE ACTS
9. In CS sections and case laws are very important so this is the high and right time to lift your study standards. As per my personal opinion you should 100% go for Bare Act reading. There is no harm in developing a habit to refer bare act. Kindly understand Bare Act is not for preparation and just for reference purpose. You can always refer particular section from Bare Act very quickly.
|
IF YOU HAVE JUST STARTED THE PREPARATION: |
As time is less for preparation so I would advise you to base your preparation on Scanner. Use ICSI guideline answers for preparation. After Scanner give sound reading to some more topics important from the exam point of view.
Time management is important so take care of that. Give First preference to those subjects which are not amongst your favourite after that prepare those subjects you are comfortable with.
Also adopt the suggestions given in above points keeping in view the availability of time. Don’t forget to take reasonable rest during study to recharge you.
10. Have faith in your abilities and never underestimate your worth. Keep your confidence high bcoz self confidence is very important to succeed in life.

After Scanner add some more topics to Succeed !!!
Dear CS, CA and CWA Students,
Last week one of caclub member has asked me this question---Is Scanner enough for CS or CA preparation or do we need to put some extra efforts to ensure success?
My reply to this question was simple and straight. According to me Scanner plays an important role in CA or CS Exams. But 100% dependency on Scanner is not advisable. Simply because there is no need to do so. Our Institute Study Material is full of various exam oriented topics and a sound understanding or reading of these topics is very much advisable for enhanced exam confidence.
So as per my advice never stop or restrict your preparation to Scanner. Always add something extra to your study or knowledge apart from Scanner or previously asked exam questions.
Here we must understand that preparation based on Scanner is just another name of selective study which is not advisable in every situation especially when you have ample time for exam preparation. Selective study is not advisable for long term professional success.
However if you are doing job or for some other unavoidable reasons you have less time to prepare for exams then you may go for selective study through Scanner and suggested answers issued by the respective institutes.
Through this brief write up an attempt has been made to through some light on the above mentioned aspect of exam preparation. I’m sincerely hoping that through this write up some constructive conclusion would come for aspiring professional course students.
Please note and observe this advice carefully….
As we all know that in CS, CA or other similar professional exams Scanner is one of the most vital tool to succeed. So it is advisable to complete your Scanner as early as possible. For this purpose it is advisable to take the help of Institute suggested answers of previous exams. Further there days solved Scanners are also available.
After gaining desired confidence about frequently asked questions in exam do not need to sit idle or feel relaxed. It is very much advisable to add some more topics from Institute Study Material which is easy and manageable. These additional topics will give you more idea about other topic or chapters and enhance your confidence automatically.
This confidence shall include ---- The feeling that you have prepared something extra and relevant apart from Scanner. As we all know that in the exam hall a small hint about the unknown question is enough to attempt that question. So avoid complete ignorance about any topic. Give a cool reading to some extra topics, which as per your own observation are easy and useful for exams.
SECETION CRITERIA
As time is less so additional topics should be selected carefully. One of the essential conditions to prepare extra topics is that you have completed your Scanner. According to me few basic points of selection are:
1. As per your own estimation topic should be relevant for exam.
2. Topic should be easy to retain in short span of time and not a complex one.
3. Topic should be connected to your earlier preparation or topic and must be capable to maintain some sort of connectivity with other prepared topics.
4. Topic should be less time consuming as far as length and preparation is concerned.
Would request you to give this advice a try and prepare as much extra topics as possible for enhanced exam confidence. Sincerely hope that you find this suggestion useful.
If you find the above write up useful kindly share your thoughts/guidance.

Sir, now started checking scanners, and trying to answer them, I am thinking of preparing scanners with solutions and sharing them on CCI, because of this.. I will be careful in preparing notes..
Sir actually, I thought, the way I studied in Bcom, is enough for cwa too.. but need to put some more planning, hardwork.. I was shocked when I saw 43 in accounts.. whereas my score was 97 in Bcom.. now I want to make my mind firm.. that I want to bring myself back with good score.. with the help of your suggestions and planning tips..
Thankyou so much sir,
I
