CA Final ISCA Tips and Tricks to Score High Marks.
ISCA is the most critical paper which needs a conceptual and clear understanding of the syllabus. Students can easily score some more marks by following these easy and quick tricks and tips.
Tricks and Tips
- Don’t confuse yourself in understanding the question: In the paper of ISCA, the first question is usually based on the case study. The case study can focus on topics such as GRC, SDLC, protection of information system, BCP, DRP, or IAS audit guidelines standards. The question from case study will evaluate your understanding and knowledge acquired from 34 chapters of the CA Final study material hence student should read the case study carefully and identify the relevant concepts based on which the questions are to be answered.
- Don’t give a short answer for heavy weighted questions: It is observed that sometimes students write the answers in brief. If you are attempting a question which has huge marks weighatge you have to give long answers to it. If you write a brief answer to such question it will be hard to score good marks hence before writing the answer student should clearly understand the weightage assigned to the particular question.
- Don’t ignore the presentation of answers: Wherever possible students should try to include relevant diagrams tables rough sketch etc.
- Don’t get panic if you don’t understand the question: In final level to check your aptitude sometimes questions are also framed on the generalized topic which may not be adequately discussed in the study material. Read the question again with a calm mind and to answer such questions students should not wear any psychological pressure rather they should write the answer based on the general understanding of the topic and other references to it.
