Istarted CIMA few years back, because my friends inspired me.Gradually I realised the value of the qualification. I found CIMA achallenging set of exams and this enhanced my interest.As an engineering student at University of Moratuwa, I did not have plenty of time to spend onCIMA to achieve my best at the exams. I strongly believe that my story would give you a set ofvaluable thoughts.I started my managerial level with the anticipation of a prize, because I knew how prestigious itwas to be a CIMA prize winner. I worked hard, but the result was not enough for a prize. But Inever gave up and I kept on trying, always following what my lecturers asked us to do. I waslucky enough to grab the CIMA Sri Lanka prize for Management Accounting DecisionManagement at November 2007 exams.I still remember the pleasure and the pride I had when I was awarded the prize and I consider itas a turning point in my life. I was recognised by many elite people. There is one thing to learnfrom this, in our life we should try our best. Then one day we will not have to regret that we couldhave done better. And remember, that we should not get discouraged if we cannot achieve ourexpectation. We should keep on trying because enthusiasm is a key success factor which lies atthe bottom of the fountain of courage.I had to postpone my CIMA studies by one and half years due to university exams. I started mystrategic level simultaneously with university industrial training so time was a constraint for me.But I continued to work hard because I always loved studying. Personal satisfaction drove me towork extremely hard. I did not have any holidays, my entire week was busy either with CIMA oroffice work. I found a nice study plan which you also can apply.Every day I got up between 3.30-4.00 am and studied up to 7.30 am. Then I went to office, camehome and studied again in the night. I used to study even when I was travelling to the office,during office cleaning time, during the lunch time etc. I know it is difficult but I had no option otherthan trying my best.Economic recession hit my father's business, so I had to conduct tuition classes and earn money.I managed my expenses without being a burden to my family. I saved my earning and I am proudto say that I used this money to pay CIMA subscription as well. During training, I received anallowance, I never spent it. But my savings were not enough for my strategic level examinationfee. I was thinking alternative options. I asked different people and a true friend helped by lendingme money to pay for my exams.I realised the value of passing the exam for the first time, otherwise it would be a waste. I wentthrough CIMA official learning systems, BPP revision kits, standard examiner answers, postexaminer guides and other necessary resources.As a CIMA prize winner I did not have to bear the tuition fees and I was given all study systemsand revision kits for free, I am grateful to my tuition provider for this.I obtained academic leave for two weeks and I worked extremely hard. I had only 5 hours ofsleep, I worked from 3.00 am to 10.00 pm continuously. My effort made me to score more than70 for all three papers at strategic level. I personally consider it as a great achievement eventhough I did not win any prize.Due to the cumulative knowledge gathered at strategic level, I found T4 part B case study easyand enjoyable. Simultaneously I was offered a part time job to work with the lecturer. He hadnoted that I was a hard working guy by observing me at the strategic level class. This made meto earn few bucks, so I could continue to spend on my exams. I studied UK TV productionindustry, T4 case study assessment criteria, report format etc. I scrutinized examiner answersand post examiner guides, completed 8 mock exams under real exam conditions, read answersfor another 10 -12 mock exams.The outcome was being ranked as 4th highest in the world for T4 part B case study. This is thegreatest achievement in my life and I consider practice as the key to my success as well asnever getting discouraged.We should always try our best, utilize the valuable time and never get disheartened. How manyof you have done a SWOT analysis of yourself? I have done it and it worked. Life is not a bed ofroses, it consists of thorns. It is our duty to work hard and achieve success. I wish you all thebest for all your future endeavors!</blockquote>
