MAFA paper was really tufffff..............
also Costing paper was tuff

if we solve all the notes of the famous teachers which are available in the market i e very famous makkar sir assignment, wadhwa sir assignment,etc , then also We will not be able to solve the Qs which were being asked in the mafa exam.

considering the above mentioned assignments we can easily solve the past year paper --scanner Qs

I dont know about MAFA paper but costing was not really tough except as to first problem on balanced score card.
In costing paper 3 problems aggregating 30 marks are from past suggested answers.
anyone who had done suggested well, could have solved those problems. if he is able to do simplex problem and theory he would easily get a score of 50-55.
Anyone who has tried balanced scorecard problem in addition would definetly get exemption.

considering abouve facts i dont feel costing paper tough.

i agree with kumar's view.......... Being CA finalist you need to exhibit expert knowledge but costing paper is not that much tough as people are saying except as balanced scorecard problem....... the remaining problems are expected at this level......... dont expect basic problems at this level............
think like professional

Hey SC,

Sorry if u felt offended by my mail. I was,infact trying to help u out .The truth is that we cant do anything about the paper now.
As far as career is concerned , it is as important to me as it is to u.But these are not university exams , these are proffessional exams & thses things do happen.

Sorry once again.

Best of luck for ur future
