The ICAI being one among the high professional body ,is not able to fix an exact time and date for its own examination and result, then what is meant by professional approach to doing things. Did anyone will accept the following ... 1, changing exam pattern after declaration of exam date (no choice in questions....) 2, changing the question pattern---Practical Oriented (announced when all student reached exam hall after preparations) All these are creating doubts in the mind of students. I would like somebody to clarify the sanctity of the above actions by ICAI.

Important Announcement - November 2009 Examination - (30-09-2009)

The Examination Committee has taken the following important decisions for the November, 2009 examinations. Students are advised to note them carefully.

A. CA course being a professional course, practical training is an essential part of it and accordingly all papers of Professional Competence Examination as well as Final should be practical oriented questions as also of the level of knowledge should be expert and not working knowledge. All questions should be compulsory at both Professional Competence Examination / Integrated Professional Competence Examination and Final examinations.

B. Students appearing for the Professional Competence Examination (PCE) for November, 2009 are advised to carefully note the following important decisions taken in relation to the syllabus and pattern of questions to be set in the examinations.

1. Paper 2 – Auditing and Assurance

Students may note that a detailed announcement regarding applicable Standards on Auditing and the publications of the ICAI relevant for the examination has already been published in the September, 2009 issue of the Newsletter. They may further note that since the fringe benefit tax has been abolished w.e.f. April 1, 2010 no question would be asked on tax audit relating to FBT. Further the provisions of CARO, 2003 would be applicable.

2. Paper 5 – Taxation

The question paper would be of practical nature.

dear friend ur mind itself is the root of all doubts, instittute does not make any changes in pattern or timing or whatever without informing well in advance and I would say that whatever insti does it does for students benefit

Hi ,

I agree with Joseph.

Y institute making this course so tough day by day..It should give some time to cope up with no choice situation and practical qus..It should have implemented from may 2010..so that students can have sufficient time...

Some students who go to their home towns and study with out internet usage..for them it was late news and finally effected their exams..
