Hi,

I have M.P. Vijay Kumar's year 2007 edition of book on AS. Whether I have to purchase latest edition for Nov.09 Final Old course exam? If Yes then please suggest,Whether I should purchase D.S. Rawat sir's book for AS or any other writter?

Thanks.

i have both Rawath and MPV sir's books, But i found that ICAI material is the bible both in terms of quality and exam orientation.

In June PCC the questions in accounts have been taken verbatim from the material itself.

Institute's material means what? The bare AS? But for practicle problems,what should be done? Is it necessary to purchase latest addition of any book? Or 2007 addition ismO.K.

dear vignesh, i have a soft copy of a summary of important guidance notes, its a bit big, so can't be uploaded on this site, it can be sent at ur email id,.........pls give ur email id..............

And dear jagruti, their is no problem doing it with 2007 edition with the disclaimer that, with the subsequent attempts the patterns of th equestion paper changes, and the new books bring some more questions about a particular AS........since 2007 edition must be lacking in the 3 - 4 attempts paper, u can understand that...........as for the matter or for the purpsoes of understanding, i see no harm in this.........but u do refer last yr question papers that is after 2007 attempts...............thanx
