Maiden attempt of CAIIB and I am through. I dnt mean to boast about myself by writing this post here. Here am I sharing my strategy of studies...
1) Dint apply some magical tricks or shortcut,so you must be thinking I must have studied way too hard or probably must have prepared for a long time. The answer is no and neither m I a genius.
Simple it is: Went through Macmillan text books
1 week of proper study per subject is sufficient provided you practise the practical questions. If you are working in credit it will help you answers questions in ABM with ease.
I found ABM relatively tougher this time compared to BFM as it involved lot of practical questions from statistics which I had ignored.So advise is do not ignore statistic portion's sums.
BFM requires little more hours are required as the course is lengthy and people with non finance background will have to give little extra time compared to people who are MBA or basically from financial background.The sums here needs little practice and understanding, mugging up won't help. So read the text first, create a base and then you will be able to answer questions based on concept. As I came across many questions this time asked on concepts. These questions are not available in the book readily. I started preparation a week before, so that doesn't mean you also have to do that.
I repeat it depends on your liking and understanding on the subject. And finally Retail is just a cake walk, in mine case it was a day before exam and if you have studied marketing in your PG/MBA, it would be easier to answer questions based on your understanding and yes, logic works!!
And finally the questions posted by other members who had appeared during the morning sessions helped me answer many questions.Many were repeated. Thanks to all the members here and congratulations to everyone who made it. Those who couldn't better luck next time. As they say "Its ok to fall but the moment you fall, you have to have the motivation to rise again, but this time higher!!!! Thanks to Sir for all your support and guidance. You deserve a bow!!! And here it is . All smiles
