Hi Shreyans,

You can go for self study in SFM. For that you may take SD Bala for concept clarity and ONLY PRACTICE MANUAL for problem practice (coaching notes are not generally suitable without taking actual classes).

If you decide to take classes, then you will need to balance other subjects as well.

U can go for coaching as 8 months time is good enough to prepare well. In SFM, coaching would help u in clearing some concepts very easily which is not so in self study.

Also, u can manage the other subjects by setting up a time table.

@ udit iam already going to take coachings for DT, Costing & FR

Don;t you think that it will be too hectic to manage 8 subjects if i add sfm coaching to it.

And also my firends say that SFM is less typical than the 3 mentioned above,

So dont you think self would be a better option in my case??

It is up to u. In my opinion coaching will give u conceptual clarity (if u take it from the right place). By self study u will consume more time in understanding than in practice. So, u can decide what is more suitable to you.If the timings are not matching u can take online coaching or Tablet coaching which is also available now a days and it is showing good results.
