Journey To CA Final

It was not the decision of my conscious mind to join CA; neither was it decision of my unconscious mind. It was the decision of my sub-conscious mind.  I was in grade eight when I know a profession called CA. At that time I even didn’t know the full form of CA and today I am in CA final, Waiting to write my name as-CA Dipendra Prasad Poudel.

Deelip karki sir (our accounts as well as optional math’s teacher in grade eight) firstly told me that one can become CA in response to my question “what can I become if I choose accounts?” He said it is highly respected post. I just replied immediately “then I will be CA”. He smiled I don’t know why. Might he have smiled of my immediate unconscious decision or just because he thought a guy who is not so good in academics said he will be CA.

I started searching about this profession and I used to ask to my seniors and relatives then everyone suggested it is tough, you can’t do, some said results are too much low. Indirectly and directly many said Don’t Do.

But there were three great persons who said I should do CA. My father, mother and Thiru Thapa Sir (accounts teacher in grade 9&10), Thiru sir encouraged me a lot. Sometime he used to call me as CA in class too. I used to feel nice.  In grade 9 & 10 I studied hard because I need to be CA.



After sharing how I entered virtually in CA I am sharing something about the real CA course. There are many myths in surroundings regarding CA course and earnings that we can make. People unnecessarily elaborate lot of things and make our profession too much complex and hectic.

I am saying very seriously when I decided to join CA I didn’t know anything about this profession. I knew I have to be CA and nothing else. I wasn’t aware of course pattern, I don’t know where to study, I asked Thiru sir from which college I can do CA?  I was attracted to do CA but I was unaware how, where and when. For some time I was shocked when I came to know it was not like college degree.  It was professional not academics.

Here I am not trying to prove that the course which I am pursuing is the toughest one. I believe all the discipline is equal but there are certain characters which makes one discipline different from another.
Whichever subject you are pursuing is the great one, because you have seen the long and good career in that field. You need to give limitless effort, challenge every exam and surely you need to be smart. There is no substitute for hard and smart work.  But along with this if you are pursuing CA you need to have patience. It is not that you failed because you didn’t study. Sometime when you did nice to results seem to be negative because of percentage barriers.

Oops! It was a long journey to reach CA final. Reaching upto here I have found lots of changes within me. I learned to be patient whatever the condition was. Although I failed I never gave up. I believed that if not today definitely the next time I will crack the exam.

I would love to share the incidence when I failed IPCC for the first time. I was sure I will be fail. 100% sure- because my costing paper went worst, and I was preparing myself before the results too. When my results flourished then I started receiving calls. Some said to join BBA it was not too late, some raised me a question “if you didn’t  pass in this exam then what is the guarantee that you will pass next time?”, some said “I was just wasting my parents hard-earned money in Delhi” they said in such a way that I was relaxing in New Delhi. They raised many question but thanks to my parents they never raised question on my ability. They were just in my side and in side of my dream whatever the situation was.

I am sure to be CA. If I can fail then I can pass too. The great line that motivated me was, “failure is part of success. Many people just give up after failing once; they take temporary failure as a permanent one”. I was sure I will pass the exam if not in first hit then in second, if not in second then in third and if not in third then fourth and so on. There was no reason to give up and there is not any today too.
Today I am presenting my own self-analysis, analysis of a short journey upto here. What I have faced and how I challenged it.

I don’t have any words to thank my parents. Really how could I express my gratitude towards them? I don’t have any words to express my gratitude today. Although we are from rural Nepal my parents really dreamed something high. Nothing mattered them to make me a good child. For me they have sacrificed a lot. Their sacrifice, dedication and struggle has resulted me.

Preserve your high energy
This is the thing I was not able to do. Almost everyone fails to do so and who doesn’t fail they succeed. The earlier days while I joined my CPT in CCMA in putalisadak Kathmandu I was highly enthusiastic and energetic to learn but after some days, I don’t know where and when that energy fade away.
The same happened in case of IPCC and it was one of the main reasons to fail. There should be continuous effort to achieve something and I lacked that quality. I will do my best not to let myself repeat the mistakes I committed earlier.

 The initial Delhi
Five of us namely Dipendra (myself), Niraj Thapa, Sunil Pokhrel,Sunil Ghimire and Gyan Kumar sah travelled from Kathmandu to new Delhi with new hope. It was a moment when we all were committed to achieve our dream profession and every one of us were determined that we will do something special. We all were here to fulfill our own dreams and the dreams of our parents. We were not only travelling far from house we were far from our nation too and we left so that we can achieve and go back with high pride.
The initial Delhi was fun for as well as hectic. We were facing problems to communicate as well as commute. We were in congested hostel and then moved to own flat. There were lots of ups and downs. We used to enjoy, laugh, travel, study and also we used to fight. Anyway those were such a precious moment of life. I am always ok in hostel and I still love to be in large groups than limited friends in flat. Those ups and downs have changed a lot within us. Now physically some of us are far from each other but still memories unite us.
Laxminagar is not a good residential area. But all the classes are centered here. Being in the capital city it is far more unmanaged than it should have been. It was hard in initial phase. You can find many Nepalese. Finding a Nepal neighbor used to make us happy. But lately we realized there are many Nepalese than we have thought. It started being common.

Taking classes
We all used to be busy. Each and every one was in hurry. We had to attend long boring classes. Taking individual teachers had made us busier. We had tight schedule. No time to think about proper fooding because we were always in hurry. We had to commute a lot. From 7 in the morning to almost 10 in the night we used to rush for various coaching classes.

When you fail be strong
This is the message to everyone. Each and everyone of us we become fail. Failed in exam won’t give you a tag of failure but if you failed to win your dreams then definitely you are failure. Don’t take your temporary failure as a permanent one. I have found many just giving up. I have already shared my experience when I became a failure.

The moment I reached in final
Wow! It was completely fantastic moment of my life. I was waiting for the second group results and hadn’t joined articleship yet. I had taken a big risk. If I had failed I just have lost 6 months but I passed. I shared it to my mother then to sister and slowly with everyone. I had corrected my mistakes. I studied hard all day and night. In front of books for 10-14 hours made me someway crack feeling but the thing is I had no any substitution for hard work.


I am in a journey and haven’t reached to harbor yet. But I can see the light house now. I feel now I am safe. I am not sure what will happen but feelings of safety have boosted my confidence.
