Dear Student,

CA Foundation is an entrance test which is replacing the current entry-level i.e. CPT(Common Proficiency Test). CA Foundation will be harder than CPT.

Students who desire to pursue CA can register for the CA Foundation after appearing in the 10+2 examinations conducted by an examining body constituted by law in India or an examination recognized by the Central Government as equivalent thereto.

You get a minimum time period of four months for study after registration for the CA Foundation. To appear in the CA Foundation examinations one has to pass 10+2 examinations.

To succeed in the entrance test, you must be fully dedicated to your studies.

The entire course at the Foundation level is divided into four subjects –

1. Principles and Practices of Accounting.
2. Business Laws and Business Correspondence and Reporting.
3. Business Mathematics and Logical Reasoning and Statistics.
4. Business Economics and Business and Commercial Knowledge.
   
   The first two papers in the course are subjective and the latter two are objective. The students are advised to start preparation with the 12th standard.

Tips to Prepare for CA Foundation During 4 Months :-

• Prepare a Time-Table - Grab the Study Material and dedicate time slots to every subject and every chapter according to the days left in your exam. This will not just organize your studies in a proper manner but also help you to analyze your performance and produce better results.
• Join the proper coaching - Proper CA Foundation/ CA CPT coaching helps you a lot in gaining clarity over concepts.
• Focus on Statistics and Logical Reasoning - Logical reasoning covers 20 marks and the remaining part is divided equally among Maths and Statistics.
• Prepare Your Own Revision Notes - always prepare your own short notes during your classes which will prove immensely helpful at your exam time.
• Take Short Breaks - Take short breaks of 10-15 minutes every 2-3 hours to refresh your mind. Start your day with the theory subjects because morning time is regarded as the best time to complete your theory subjects and thereafter practical subjects. End your day with the revision of what you have done for the whole day.
• Minimum Three Times Revision -  Plan your revision efficiently i.e. revise each and every topic in your first revision and mark the same type of questions so that your precious time won’t get wasted in solving similar questions again. At the second revision try to complete a single question for each type and mark questions for your third revision which seems to be tough, important, and needed one more revision. At your last and third revision, read the concepts and solve only those questions which you think need one more revision
• Model Test Papers - They taught you time management and how to analyze the questions accurately. Of course, it is most advisable to solve the CA Foundation mock test papers once you have completed the course.
• Focus on Presentation - In the professional exams and especially the CA Exams presentation matters a lot. Two of the papers in the syllabus are objective while the other two are subjective. Start practicing the questions in writing and tally them either with your mentors or suggested answers.
