Overcoming Adversity: My CA Intermediate Result in May 2019
After initially facing a setback in my Nov 2018 attempt, I redoubled my efforts and pushed my limits. My perseverance, determination, and unwavering passion ultimately led to the success I achieved in May 2019. This article shares my journey, the challenges I faced, and the lessons I learned.
Initial Setback and Resilience
Earlier that year, I faced a terrible blow when I failed my CA Intermediate exam for the first time. But instead of giving up, I committed myself fully to my studies. I spent countless hours revising and pushing beyond my comfort zone, determined to succeed where I had previously faltered.
Result and Marks
I successfully scored 190 marks, just short of the 200 aggregate required to pass. With the looming deadline for my final attempt, I was faced with the prospect of preparing one more time. Despite the challenges, I remained steadfast in my resolve, knowing that every effort count.
Lessons learned from my previous experience, I focused on my weakest areas and fortified my knowledge. My preparation was methodical and relentless, ensuring that I was fully prepared for the challenges ahead.
Academic Success and Achievements
Although I had to work harder than ever, my efforts paid off with a remarkable result. I secured an impressive score of 294 in Group 1 and 295 in Group 2, clearing both groups in my first attempt. Moreover, I achieved 6 exemptions, which is a significant accomplishment on its own.
The hardest part, however, was the wait for the official result. As per the official announcement, the results would be declared by 6 PM, and based on past records, everyone was anticipating an announcement by 12 noon. However, the result was delayed, only being declared at around 8:50 PM, when it was officially announced at 9 PM.
Rank and Recognition
When I finally saw my result, my entire world changed. I had cleared all my exams and achieved 6 exemptions, a result that I could barely believe. The joy and elation I felt at that moment was immeasurable. I immediately called my parents, who were overjoyed upon hearing the news.
My parents, who had supported me through every challenge, were particularly thrilled. They were at the top of Chandigarh, attending a training program, and I called them first. Followed by phone calls to my friends and teachers, I felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and happiness.
When I told my parents about my top 33 All India Rank, they were ecstatic. It was a profound moment, and I felt that I had finally repaid them for their unwavering support and cooperation during my preparation.
A Special Thanks: I want to extend a special thank you to my parents, my brother, friends, and teachers for their unwavering support and guidance. Their belief in my abilities and constant encouragement played a pivotal role in my success. I am forever grateful for their help and support.
From this experience, I have learned that no challenge is insurmountable if you have the right mindset and support system. Always keep pushing your limits and hold on to your dreams, no matter how difficult the journey may seem.
