The CA Intermediate September 2024 MTP Series 1 marks the official beginning of your exam preparation journey.
Released by ICAI’s Board of Studies (BoS), this paper is designed to help students test their conceptual clarity, speed, and presentation before the main exams.
“Your first mock test is not a test of perfection — it’s a test of preparation.”
Why MTP 1 Matters So Much
- ICAI introduces every Mock Test Paper with a purpose.
- MTP 1 is your diagnostic tool — it tells you how much you truly know and where you stand before the final exam phase begins.
- Here’s what it helps you achieve:
- Checks conceptual understanding across all six subjects.
- Improves time management under real exam pressure.
- Strengthens answer presentation and structure.
- Builds self-confidence before you step into later MTPs or RTPs.
“MTP 1 sets your direction; the later MTPs refine your performance.”
