Being adept to the current environment and as an initiative to train our students to become Chartered Accountants ,the Department of Commerce & Management conducted a power talk for students of First year BCOM & BBA on the topic “How to Crack CA?”. 

In his address, CA Lokesh Shetty urged students to rise above mediocre 9-5 job and take up CA as a profession. With real life incidents and anecdotes, sir explained to students why CA was not difficult but different. The key take-aways from the session were:

Ø  Learning Not Reading. One must study for the purpose of learning and not just passing.

Ø  Change in Approach is important as one cannot prepare himself for CA the way he prepares for UG exams. It is important to realize that CA is not Difficult but Different.

Ø  Conceptual Clarity is what is required to clear the CA exams in one attempt.

Ø  Focus & Self- Motivation are the keys to successful completion of the course.Trust, Hard-work, Determination & Commitment will lead to successful results in CA exam. The students interacted with sir at the end of the session and clarified their doubts.
