If you are appearing for the exam for the first time, solving past year question papers could help you in managing time and achieve accuracy. Time management is the first lesson you should learn when appearing for a professional exam.
Some tricks to solve ICAI sample papers
Solving practice papers of ICAI exam will help you to develop speed and accuracy. The advantage of solving papers in a proper schedule manner is that it can help you in developing your own short tricks to quickly solve the question and to points easily. This will helps to manage your time in the exam.
Although there will be high chances that you may not able to solve the whole paper in the first attempt, but if you practice regularly then you will be able to complete it at the scheduled time.
In your first attempt, silly mistakes will happen. And such mistakes could cost you another six months. To avoid such a situation, start solving mock test practice papers.
Another advantage of solving papers can help you in improving your presentation skills. The presentation may not be achieved up to the level given in the practice manuals or the module test papers, but the keywords and the concept should be the same.
Solving the ICAI exam past year question papers can also help you in getting an idea of what is essential in the paper. However, for the CA exams, every single question is important, and you are advised not to skip anything. But, if you have a look at the past papers, it can help you in getting a brief idea what is more important than others. Which topics require only understanding of the concept, which topics are repeated, what are the keywords, how and what should be written, etc.
Most importantly, while practising, first read your answer and then the suggested answer. Examine what have you written and what should actually be written. If the concept written by you is similar to the right answer then next thing you should assess is the presentation, the manner in which suggested the answer is given and the manner in which you wrote the answer in the paper. After analysing the presentation, the next thing you should note that have you included all the keywords, if not do not forget that keywords next time.
