Kew Academy - empowering the student fraternity with Knowledge | Excellence | Wisdom

KEW

KEW Academy is an initiative aimed at training and shaping students through advanced and result driven techniques and enabling them to achieve success in Chartered Accountancy and Company Secretaryship.

KEW stands for    Knowledge  |  Excellence  |  Wisdom
which the academy believes are the basic tenets to bring progress and development in a continuous manner.

Knowledge, Excellence & Wisdom constitute a triad of interactive factors characterized by dynamism and unique interdependence.


What is Knowledge?
Knowledge can be defined as a familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something or a subject, with facts, skills, or objects. Knowledge can be acquired in many different ways and from many difference sources, including but not limited to years of experience, reasoning, memory, testimony, scientific inquiry, education, and relentless practice.
Knowledge can be termed as a state of mind when you know that there is so much more to learn, to know. When you realize that Knowledge has no limits, Knowledge has no limits. Knowledge can only be attained by learning it yourself.
They say “Knowledge is Power”. Because Knowledge has enabled us to make all the advancements in the science and technology spheres that we have been able to achieve. Knowledge has made us the most capable, superior and sophisticated beings on this earth and is one of the primary factors that distinguishes the human race from the animals.

Why Excellence?
Excellence is defined as a talent or quality which is unusually good and surpasses ordinary standards. It is also used as a standard of performance as measured e.g. through economic indicators. Excellence is worth pursuing, because the alternate choice is depressing, sad,lethargic, and uninspiring. It is a basic human need to be good at what they do, and the pursuit of being better makes everyone around us better. It moves us forward as a species and betters our lives as a whole. A life filled with excellence is interesting, inspiring, and deeply rewarding.

How do you gain Wisdom?
Wisdom is the use of one’s intelligence and experience as mediated by values toward the achievement of a common good or excellence through a balance among (1) intra-personal, (2) interpersonal, and (3) extra-personal interests, over time to achieve a balance by adaptation to existing environments, re shaping existing environment, and optimal selection of new environments. Wisdom is a virtue that isn’t innate, but can only be acquired through learning & experience. By learning as much as you can, analyzing your experiences,  putting your knowledge to the test, and chasing excellence, you can become a wiser person.

KEW Academy focuses on achieving this in each student, regardless of how they believe or have been pre-conditioned to believe they are in their studies: excellent, good, average or poor. We guide them through tried & tested methods to achieve what we help them focus on. Wisdom is that which directs knowledge toward good--toward the creation of value.

Why does a good student from school fail in CA, CS or CMA professional examinations?

What is the reason for a student who has never seen failure, through their higher secondary, suddenly unable to perform in a competitive examination? Why are good students unable to perform when it comes to in CA, CS or CMA professional examinations? The student ends up feeling confused. To understand this we need to go back a few years in the life of the student. 14 years of school education have actually caused this. Knowingly or unknowingly, their school education has a protective support system, with clear guidance, supported by school teachers, parents & tuition teachers where they need the additional help. There is a regular process that is followed where the child is conditioned and supported by a regular format of education. The focus of the schools are to enable the child to get through the two boards, 10th & 12th. They are not wrong in their thought process. But the educational system makes the child dependent on the format & process. Students easily achieve

Is Mathematics required to pursue Chartered Accountancy?

A question that has always been top of mind for most Commerce students & their parents, with as many different answers that confuse. To provide clarity & before i say YES or NO, let me give you the background. Basically the students can be classified into CBSE & State Board. Until last year i.e.2019, CBSE did not classify their mathematics applicability for Science vs Commerce. They had only one Mathematics called General Mathematics, which was applicable for all. However under the State Board Syllabus, they had 2 options; Business Mathematics & General Mathematics. CBSE Students study General Mathematics & State Board study Business Mathematics. However there are students who do not opt for Mathematics during their 11th & 12th. They opt for Marketing, Computer Science or any other allied subjects offered. For these students, this question of whether Math is required for CA, seems to be pertinent. It is imperative that students understand whether they
