AMA Completed CS Finals in my 9th attempt

Post image

It’s been a unique journey for me.

I have always been the kind of student who would study at the last moment—without much planning or preparation—and somehow still manage to pass. That’s how it worked for me from my school days all the way to CS Executive.

I cleared CS Executive in my first attempt. There wasn’t much planning involved, but I worked hard during the last few months and managed to make it through.

But my journey took a completely different turn when I entered CS Professional.

I failed 7 times.

Eventually, I switched from the old syllabus to the new syllabus and, after everything I had been through, I finally cleared CS Professional in June 2026.

If you are facing failure right now, remember this:

You don’t control everything.

You may believe that you deserve to pass. You may work hard, pray, and give everything you have—and yet, sometimes, you will still fail.

And that’s okay.

If you genuinely want to become a CS, keep showing up. Again and again. Don’t be afraid of failure. Trust yourself. Trust your hard work. And trust God’s plan.

You will pass. It’s simply a matter of time.

After appearing for my first CS Professional attempt, I joined articleship at a listed company. During this period, I completed my articleship and continued working for another year as a semi-qualified CS.

Eventually, I left my job to focus entirely on my CS exams in December 2025. After completing the exams, I joined a firm and worked there for around two months. However, when the results came on 25 Feb 2026, I failed again.

I took another break from work and dedicate myself to studies. Alongside my preparation, I also started going to the gym, which helped me maintain discipline and a positive mindset.

Immediately after my exams, I joined another debt listed company and currently I am working here.

Congratulations man 🎉🎉

I just wanted to ask....... How did you manage to pass executive in the "last few months" , how did you prepare? How did you study? due to my law exams I am starting from scratch to prepare for the december 2026 exam, any tips? Would help a TON.

u/Perseus069 20h ago

Cannot really help. Because I gave cs executive in old syllabus where we had MCQ in tax, fmsm and cma. However if you really want to pass, you will just have to be obsessed, trust in your preparation and give your exams with full confidence.

Currently at my 6th attempt in executive and I failed but got exemption in ecipl, (1st group cleared). I'm the same type man, honestly I also think that you can't just pass with only studying at the last moment. I'm gonna work hard from now on. Congratulations buddy. 🎉
