1.5-Day Strategy for CA Final Exams (Revision Between Papers)


🗓️ Day 0: Right After the Exam (Remaining Half-Day)

🕒 After coming back (approx. 2–3 hours):

  • Rest + Recharge (1.5–2 hours): Freshen up and have light food.
  • Start light revision (2–3 hours):
    • Begin with scoring + comfort topics or MCQs.
    • Avoid jumping straight into the heaviest chapters.
    • Target: Finish 1–2 small or medium topics to build momentum.

Example:

  • For FR: Small IND AS or consolidation format overview.
  • For Audit: Ethics, Company Audit.
  • For DT: Basics of Residential Status, or TDS chart review.

🗓️ Day 1: Full Revision Day

Morning (9 AM – 1 PM)
Heaviest Chapter(s)

  • Pick the most important/lengthy chapters.
  • Finish 1 or 2 major topics (ex: IND AS 115 + 116 in FR; Transfer Pricing in DT).

Afternoon (2 PM – 6 PM)
Moderate + Application-Oriented Topics

  • Cover chapters that are scoring but still need attention.
  • Do selective past questions / ICAI RTP/MTP Qs.

Evening (7 PM – 11 PM)
Small/Leftover Chapters + MCQ/Scanner

  • Knock out smaller topics.
  • Do 15–20 MCQs or scanner Qs if applicable.

⏱️ Revision Summary Tip:
→ Keep a small diary with 1-liner summaries or key sections for each chapter – this helps on the final day.


🗓️ Day 2: Exam Day (Last Half-Day)

Morning (6:30 AM – 9:30 AM)
Final Touch – Scanning Round

  • Rapid revision of charts, keywords, formats.
  • Focus on presentation, section numbers, standard headings.

9:30 AM – 10:00 AM
Pack & Prep Mentally

  • Keep your ID, admit card, writing tools ready.
  • Calm your mind, avoid talking about doubts.

💡 General Tips

  • Don’t aim to study everything – Aim to revise smartly and write accurately.
  • Prioritize:
    • 📌 ICAI RTPs / MTPs
    • 📌 Past exam trends
    • 📌 Easy scoring topics (target 40–50 marks from these)
  • Sleep at least 5.5–6 hours – Don’t compromise too much here.
