CA Inter student, who is fresh out of school and has
completed his Foundation, has only about 9 months of study time for his CA
Inter exams. During this period, he has to manage and distribute his study time
judiciously towards – (a) CA Inter Exams, (b) Information Technology Training
and (c) B.Com Graduation College Classes if he has joined a college.
Assuming a moderate estimate of 35 Study Hours per week
over a 38 Weeks period (9 months) for 8 Subjects, the Student has only around 170
hours per Subject to prepare for a professional examination. This short time
should also be viewed against the backdrop of the comparatively vast syllabus
in each subject and new concepts in a new subject, that the student comes
across for the first time.
Delaying
the appearance in the examination or writing two groups separately in 6 months
interval, will only lead to delaying one’s career and is not a solution for
the above challenges.
Eligibility for CA Inter:
A student who has passed – (a) CA Foundation or (b)
Direct Entry Student who have completed Commerce Graduate/Post Graduate with a
minimum percentage of marks of 55%or
Other Graduate/Post Graduate with a minimum percentage of60% and also who have Completed Orientation
Course and Information Technology Training may join CA Inter.
