Coaching:
Dear Friends , the course of financial reporting not that tough. The main topics in this are:
Amalgamation and Corporate Restructuring

Accounting Standards & Guidance Notes
The above chapter cover upto 80% marks in the exams. This may be done by Self Study although i have done a coaching of Accounting Standards.
Imp. Topic From Exams Point of View:
Guys , the pattern of examination questions may be changed by institute any time ... this purely depends on your luck ...:
Holding Company (20 Marks) [Chain Holding and Problems on Disposal of Shares, Normal Questions may be asked]
Accounting Standards (50-60 Marks) [AS 16, 17,20,26,28 are very very important, others are also given weightage]
Amalgamtion and Other Topics (20-30 Marks) [In this theory questions are also asked]
May this help you for your preparation .... Dont forget to cover up Suggested Answers Compiled by ICAI, Because mostly the same questions may be repeated in upcoming exams.... Best of Luck ..
[This is Purely my Opinion, pls dont expect 100% truth from above, because guys it is ICAI who is taking exams]
