Let’s Discuss Step Number Two:

When you attempt mock tests, you can estimate your performance based on the rank. Your score in both the papers and also in all six topics – Accountancy, Costing, Commerce, Finance Management, Economics and Companies Act, is very important to understand your position and direction.

Therefore, the action points are –

1. Attempt mock tests and analyze your score. This week, aim to attempt mock tests and analyze your score. Analyze every wrong answer and why you marked it. Read the description of the correct answer and make your notes on your understanding. Make sure your every effort is keeping you a step forward from your competitors.

2. Study the topics of paper 2 as per the syllabus provided in the SEBI Grade A 2020 notification. Cover all the topics so that you ensure reaching the phase 2 exam. In the Phase 2 exam, you will need more depth. More clarity on the concepts and much more practice for the same. Always remember that your aim is SEBI Grade A selection and not only phase 1 or phase 2 clearance. It will only be achieved when you focus, understand, and learn the concepts in depth with hours of practice.

3. Make a study plan based on the marks you have obtained in the mock test. Mock test analysis will let you know your weak and strong points. This study plan has to be unique to your requirements. Figure out the subjects which demand more attention. Divide your study hours accordingly.

Focus on these mentioned points for this week and let us know how your preparation is going on. The next step will be told to you the next Thursday. Till then, keep learning and keep studying.
