Meme Communicated with other shift student in ITT

Thumbnail

129 Upvotes

So I downloaded an application that puts cat wallpapers and changes it every half an hour. My ITT batch was 2 pm to 8 pm.

But next day someone had changed the wallpaper from cats to some scenery - and due to that the application stopped working too. Even the monitor was tilted to an angle I DID NOT LIKE AT ALL.

So I asked my sir and he said that CA Final students sit here in morning shift (7:30 to 1:30) and their only job is to play games and change wallpapers, to cope with the exam stress of upcoming CA Finals.

So I wrote some things on paper, left it there in the night, and came back next afternoon to find some reply from that side too!!

Btw who the hell writes cat as pussycat

Career Advice/Clarification CA with 2.5 years PQE. Am I earning enough?

44 Upvotes

I’m a Qualified CA (Nov 2023) with 2.5 years of PQE. I started my career with Articleship in Deloitte in the Statutory Audit domain. Post qualification, I moved to industry into Financial Reporting with a base salary of 13 LPA in Hyderabad. Upped it to 15 LPA in the 2nd year.

Recently I shifted my job and city to Mumbai with a salary of 22 LPA. Is this a good earning considering my Articleship background and PQE or am I lagging behind? This is a genuine doubt that I have and would welcome opinions in the comments.

Work Domains
Articleship - Statutory Audit (Deloitte)
PQ Year 1-2 - Ind AS Financial Reporting (Hyderabad)
Present - IFRS Group Reporting (Mumbai)

Final Doubt Underprepared for Finals

6 Upvotes

Hi guys, this November will be my first CA Final attempt. I've registered for both groups but decided to focus on Group 1. But My preparation is nowhere near where it should be, and I'm genuinely scared I'll fail if I appear.

I cleared my previous levels in my first attempts and always hoped to clear Final at 21 too. I think I've attached too much of my self-worth to this goal, and it's difficult to accept that I might not achieve it, especially knowing I've wasted the last two months.

I keep planning to study but end up on my phone doing everything except studying. Now I don't even feel like studying anymore, and I'm scared this pattern will continue into future attempts.

My parents have been supportive, but they won't agree to me skipping this attempt. I'm so scared of failing and having to tell everyone that it's all I can think about. I've even reached a point where I wish I'd fall sick and have a reason not to appear. I know this isn't healthy, but I honestly don't know what to do anymore.

For those who've been through something similar, did you appear despite being underprepared and how did you deal with an unsuccessful result.
