Varsha, who lives in Dilshad Colony, started preparing for CA in 2019. She says, my rank in Foundation was 20. But, during Intermediate, I felt that the syllabus was too much. It was the time of Covid. I could not prepare much. So I gave the exams of both the groups separately. Then I prepared for the final along with articleship. For this, I also took a study leave of 5-6 months.
When tough times come…
From foundation to final level, Varsha's preparation took 8 to 14 hours. Meanwhile, she also had to face a difficult phase. She says, “I started feeling that I will not be able to do this. I should leave CA. But then my family became my support. I think any student who is going through this phase in his life should talk to his teacher, family, friends. Because at that time you need a gentle push.”
ICAI study material and mock tests are useful for CA exams
She says, preparation through ICAI study material, mock tests, old papers is very helpful. I also took coaching. It depends on the need of each student. Social media never became a hindrance for Varsha. She says, it helped me. Be it preparation or refreshing the mind. I watched many standup comedy videos. Before the last 6 months, I also kept reading novels.
Varsha's father is an account manager, mother is a housewife and elder sister is doing PhD from IIT Delhi.
