For your preparation, you can easily access these apps & find it very useful. I would like to name some of the few Apps are:
Prepguru
CPT Quick ref
Konceptca
Online tayari etc
By logging in to such apps, you can study & learn so many questions in just one click. You just easily crack the exam after getting through these mock tests & practice paper.
However, you should not completely rely on online preparation. The approach used in teaching could be different from what is actually required. Online is also a better option for mock test and papers rather than the actual prep. So, focus on preparing through books or coaching and practice online.

Although, a some parts of the syllabus of the accounting courses is similar, the fact that the ACCA qualification offers more prospects both in India and abroad is still an advantage.
ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), UK, is a global body of professional accountants and is recognized as the world's largest and influential accountants association expanding over 170 countries and training more than 370,000 students all over the world. Unlike CA or other accounting courses, ACCA qualification is in line with the current demands of employers all over the world.
Although ACCA is considered similar to CA qualification in India, ACCA provides additional knowledge of UK GAAP, Laws & IFRS, which directly puts you at advantage if you work for a MNC or an Indian firm that works for clients abroad. If you are doing an MBA with your ACCA, you stand a chance to attract more job opportunities to select from.
One more thing that sets ACCA qualification apart from CA is that you can acquire a degree at the same time as studying towards achieving the qualification. Obtaining this degree will surely put you in demand with employers throughout the world while increasing your career prospects.
ACCA qualification is recognized in countries like Australia, Canada, UK and many more. Their government considers this qualification as an eligible qualification for students to apply for jobs.

During preparation:
Firstly, don't take the CA CPT examination lightly. You should always keep your mind in an examination mode.
2. If you are not properly planning for your preparation, you are deliberately planning to fail and God too can't help you.
3. Self-study is the basic requirement for passing the CA CPT examination. But because of their over-confidence, they avoid, going in for an external source. Do not do so, go for reference books and external coaching. It is expected of a CA CPT student to go through the study materials provided by ICAI so as to get a clear concept of different subjects and also to know about the type of questions that you have to attempt in your exam.
4. Do Not Neglect Past Examinations/ Mock Test Papers
During exam:
5. Do not panic, as you should remember that you have studied for this and this is just the time to put that on paper.
6. Understand the questions, what it requires and accordingly what concept needs to be applied.
7. Manage your time to attempt questions and ensure to recheck the answers and applications used.
