Approach-
1. See Praveen Khatod Sir’s revision video. They are extremely comprehensive. If not available for a particular topic or you need more clarity, see Mayank Kothari sir’s or Bhavik sir’s revision video. My friend mentioned Sanjay Saraf Sir’s audio are also good.
2. Read your coaching notes for concept learning and examples. Be mindful of marking/highlighting those points which are to be revised on last day and last day revision questions. Solve your teacher’s important questions now. Every such question will have 1-2 new points. Be extremely mindful to elaborate these points beside the question for future revision.
3. Go for Study Material - illustrations and questions. In practical questions, try to redraw the outline or form/columns of the answer on the side such that it facilitates quick revision. For long questions, you can write the steps for approaching it for quick revision. Also explaining a particular concept to a friend helps in understanding. If you face any difficulty in any question beyond 10 minutes, search for a faculty’s video on Youtube solving it. Some of CA Final questions are very tough and it’s a waste of time and confidence if you take it on your ego that you will solve it all yourself. If you have a doubt regarding how ICAI has solved a particular question or you think there is an error in solution or you have a doubt on rounding off, you can call ICAI’s faculty in BOS Noida. They are very helpful. I contacted SFM Faculty on multiple occasions and response was very good.
For theory (which is a must in new course)- go for Bhavik sir’s revision video on Youtube and notes provided in description box. For important chapters learn from study material itself (Bhavik sir has mentioned the important chapters in his video).
4. Go for past 2 attempts RTPs and MTPs. Prefer watching a Youtube video where a faculty is solving these contents. RTPs generally have tricky questions which if solved first by oneself, may lead to loss of confidence and drain a lot of time. Its better to learn it to approach in Institute’s way. ICAI updates these contents without issuing corrigendum so stick to ICAI’s website pdf every time. Don’t rely on old pdf and printouts.
5. You might now revise and appear for a mock test. Some people advocate multiple revisions. I had 2 at best. I prefer a detailed study rather than multiple light doses.
