priyam...you are a great writer...infact i can fully relate myself with you. i didn't clear my 2nd group of PCC this time, and i ended up crying and humilating myself in my room. i did that same mistake of concentrating on concepts of cost/fm and income tax, and not actually pracitising problems.
when you do self study its easy to avoid subjects which increase your fears...and i understand with the coaching phobia...i also have my own too...
but after reading your article i understood what i have done and what i should be doing ...thanks for that...
i hope you will keep writing stuff...dil ko sukoon milta hai ki apani tarah sochne wala koi toh hai...
Reasons Why I failed – an analysis
Surprisingly I got a big scolding from my dad today and not on the result day for failing in PCC Group 2….after having long discussions, arguments and crying .Im back to writing my third article …and ya I patched up with my dad in just 5 minutes with a hug and a kiss (that’s called Dad and daughter bonding)….
Now coming back to the topic –Why I failed ???? an analysis…I must say it really hurts writing about my failure …but I really wanted to share with u all ,the mistakes I made that u can truly avoid….
Firstly wud like to mention the marks I got
Cost/fm- 41 Taxation- 46 it/sm-50= fail
So here are my mistakes:-
1) lack of seriousness- I cleared PCC Group 1 in may ,I started studying for group group 2 only after group 1 results …(ya its quite weird ,usse pehle I was daydreaming).If u r not serious about wat u r doing things will only bcom difficult for u…..I really wasted a lot of time bringing back my seriousness….I really had to make up my mind to take CA seriously .(actually there is a story behind this…if u want to know read my first article).Once ur life is derailed it takes time to bring it back on track…u just need to make efforts in the right direction …but ya its possible to bounce back again…if u workhard.
2) Lack of focus- My best friend told me “ priyam u lack focus” but I didn’t listen …but ya now I realize that my friend was right.its very easy for ur mind to wander and lose focus …control ur mind and focus on ur studies and ur goals….Always remember the books u have kept on ur studytable has to be completely read by u …its very important to do regular studies…I did self study and my negligence drowned me …”kal padh loongi”…the habit of shifting todays work to tomorrow can prove deadly .how many hours u get to study ,how many hours u study is a personal thing but the main thing is that u study everyday.
3)Lack of planning- CA is all about planning ,u have to plan from the beginning .plan ur studies ,ur attempts …make strategies and constantly review ur plans ….Earlier I didn’t use to accept the fact …whenever someone used to tell me about planning …I used to run away from that person .but now I have realized that its very important to plan ur studies …its not wise to be a rolling stone…or a ship without a radar …specially when u r a ca student.actually its truly in ur own hands tum kitne jaldi CA complete karte ho …it depends on ur plans and how well u implement ur plans .there has to be a deep desire an urge to succeed and learn…..
4)If u don’t study u cant pass – studies and passing have direct correlation in CA…u have to workhard and there is no shortcut ofcourse u can do smart studies and all,make ur own strategies and plans,cover up ur weakness..by ur strength but padhna toh padega hi…..whether u do self study or take coaching the thing is that u have to cover the syllabus ,scorewell and pass CA .i did selfstudy bcos I have coaching phobia(I have no reason to explain why ) and I want to continue with the same in future too(selfstudy) but I think my parents will throw me out if I don’t join coaching in Final…lets see what happens.
5) Don’t get distracted midway- Its very easy to lose enthusiasm midway and bcom lazy…which can prove deadly for ur studies and ur carrer.the best way to deal with it is to set a target (small,achievable) for each day…this way u will know in advance what all tasks u need to complete on a particular day.one more thing I want to add here is that don’t start comparing urself with others and get distracted …u have ur own life ,u r an individual with ur own dreams /aspirations ,ability and no one knows u better than u urself do …ur dreams are ur own and wats important for u , u know best …so keep learning and improving.
6) don’t leave any portion uncovered- cover each and every part atleast once…don’t leave any topic untouched so that u can atleast attempt all questions in exam…even if u hate a particular topic u still have to cover it now and don’t leave it to be covered on the examday bcos the chances are there that u will leave that portion uncovered.
7)overcome ur weakness- Identify ur weakness,areas where u need to improve .find ways to overcome ur weakness…see the examination pattern (but don’t expect ki is baar bhi same pattern ayega) …read the examiners comments(wat the examiner expects)…and do an alysis where u fall short …every subject needs to be tackled in a different way ..use ur strengths to overcome ur weakness…learn from ur mistakes and improve.
8)Accuracy and speed – it feels very bad to say that I was damn slow in costing /fm .if I wud have attempted the paper completely things wud have been different for me…(ya result ke baad if /but starts emerging ,ya u can call it my excuseJ. Scoring well/marks are very important .i think cost/fm are very scoring subjects and I really have to improve a lot…..
9) understanding concepts and practicing are both different things – cost/fm are application based subjects …only knowing the concepts wudnt be enough…if u know the concepts u will be able to solve the problem that’s very true.but if u havnt practiced u will waste a lot of time applying those concepts and time is very limited in exams….my exam preparation was not upto the mark whatever time I studied I just managed to cover the concepts ,I got clarity but practice was lacking ….it was like job hi padha tha exam se pehle ,exam mein jake I was practicing that….it ate up a lot of time.In exam if u don’t know the application part…u will be in this kind of situation-“ isko aise solve karma tha ki doosre tarah se karma tha ????maine kya padha tha?????” then u waste 5 minutes thinking about how to solve the problem.
10) Keep ur studies above everything else- I was very much disturbed during Sep/Oct….thats very crucial time for CA students…and specially for me it was very important bcos I had started studying from august only(after result)…due to my own personal problems I was not able to concentrate on my studies.
With time I have realized that a persons life is his/her own,dreams are his/her own and the person who has to make efforts is he/she only.obviously problems don’t give a warning and come ,but do take proper care of urself during exam time.its very important to have a clear /positive mind and a healthy body …(exam se pehle bimar mat pado).have a positive attitude and be optimistic.
Share ur thoughts with ur family ,ur loved ones ,spend time with them ,enjoy but don’t forget ur studies .Pass/ fail is a matter of 6 months jitney jaldi samajh jao utna achcha for u.
Ya im sad …but I have to look forward to may attempt….onething I have learnt so far is that CA is an interesting course …if u r not serious….it will make u serious.
I will never give up…….i will never quit and to be very true .im dying to be in CA Final…..thats the burning desire I always longed for and im glad I finally have it.
“ Theres no other way to deal with ur failure than to accept the fact that theres still room for improvement.”
Life is all about learning so keep learning and
Stay happy always.

Thanks Priyam... for me its been too tough as i have not cleared any group in PCC, overall me hi sab problem ho rahi hai. I m quite fed up but i never wanted to quit. Sometimes its seems very difficult to be clear but sometimes i think if he or she can passed why not me? after reading your thoughts and analysis got some internal posilivity and confident to move on without thinking what may people think as so many wants me to quit and go for better paid job. But i will not... never.. i will put my 110% in study. Whatever reasons you have write down above are 100% right in my case its all my mistakes. I wish this time will be my last PCC attempt i have already crying so much & i was dipressed since so many days.. but i have already started my studies with new energy.. thanks for writing so good article for us.. sometimes people around us asked about our result and make joke on our failure i dont know why they feel so happy to make us cry and feel so down i wish mujhe ab aise kisise na milna pade..
you are good writer but i think rather than say good writer you are a BEST THINKER for me.... go ahead
Good Luck
