So I was sleeping last night when the the notification was released by our Institute. I woke up at 2:30 and boom ! Got the shocking news.

Opened TG and YT and saw the chaos.

So now coming to the point, those who skipped May attempt and was preparing for September attempt definitely did not deserve this as this is unnecessary wastage of time.

Those who were preparing for January attempt is standing clueless as well.

Institute should have announced this before closing the exam forms atleast.

But those who are intending to appear for May 26 in less then a month, why are we all panicking? There is nothing to panic about . When we are appearing to clear the exam our mindset should never ever shift to the next attempt.

This mentality of “iss baar nahi hua toh agle attempt main pakka karlenge” is causing an unnecessary self invented loop in our mind and is giving a cushion to fall back.

So for May warriors out there, we will clear in this attempt no matter what 🌷

With the Finals shifting back to twice a year, people are now supporting to bring back 3yr articleship. The argument they give is Articles are not able to learn that much in 2yr period + there is shortage of articles for firms.

First of all, with Inter being 3 attempts, there are ample number of articles available in a year for a firm.

Second, there are many many students who start their CA late or even if they start early, they have failed in many attempts. Making their age of clearing CA inter somewhere around 20, 21, 22.

Now at this age, doing a 3 years articleship means they will probably become CA at around 24, 25, 26 assuming they clear Finals in first attempt. Now if they fail in one attempt, this age keeps getting pushed forward.

No one wants to be financially dependent on their family till that age. Even many students dont have that option. They need to become CA asap to support their Families.

Regarding that learning point, its not that tough. 2 years are enough to learn the work of your domain. And even you can learn after becoming a CA. That why CA is called a "Practice" and not a "Business".

I really DON'T want ICAI to bring back that. Else, many dreams would be shattered!

I feel like the mental health aspect of this course is completely ignored by the ICAI and our families.

You sit in your room for your 3rd or 4th attempt at CA Final. You open Instagram, and the friends who took "easier" degrees are getting promotions, buying cars, traveling abroad, and getting married. Meanwhile, you are 24 or 25 years old, still financially dependent on your parents, calculating depreciation on other people's assets for a tiny articleship stipend.

It feels like you traded the best years of your 20s just for a prefix. For the ones who finally cleared it after multiple attempts... does the feeling of being "behind in life" eventually go away, or do you always feel like you are playing catch-up?

.

Had plan's for a long trip with friends had booked all tickets for 15,and here comes ICAI postponing exams just two day's ahead without any reason,like wth atleast give a proper reason

These people are the worst they can't even conduct exam's properly,agar exams manage hi nhi ho rhe the toh saal main 2 baar rakho,3 baar ke nashe karke haar baar inter walo ke sath hi khelna hai

legit kabhi student's ke baare main sochte nhi jab Maan hua exam postpone kar diya,bhut se logo ke plans rehta hai sab cancel karne padte,IT aur OC bhi effect hote hai bhut logo ke

I have been in practice for the last 10 years. Started from scratch. No relatives / seniors to guide.

I am not sure that I have reached my full potential yet. As per me, the only way to measure it is the annual income.

Practicing in a tier 2 city from the last 10 years how much income should be considered handsome?
