    Hello I have registered for the CSCA exam in the upcoming September exam window. Could you please suggest the most effective exam preparation package? I am considering options such as HOCK, IMA, or any other recommended study support materials. im a working professional

    Hi, I used only the HOCK material and passed the March '26 attempt. Since I was also working full-time, I found HOCK manageable and sufficient, provided you follow the study plan consistently and practice the questions thoroughly.

    I studied from Hock and I passed in1st attempt. But still the exam was indeed difficult.

    Hi,

    I prepared using IMAs learning series. Although I passed on my 1st attempt, I could not fully correlate some of the questions on the exam, with learning series. I believe there were gaps and would encourage you to explore HOCK. I took a trial for HOCK and found the method of delivery far more convenient, efficient. Good luck!
