If you have not read recently an aged woman above 50 has turned to become a CA and she and her daughter cleared the final exams simultaneously, what does this show you? Well it shows there no age limit in learning and dedication can cross every boundary.

Firstly, please mention when your college will be completed, if it’s going to be completed or is already completed then you will be in an advantage, I assume it’s not yet completed, you are 26 and going for a college and you suspect jobs might not be there when you clear your IPCC/Finals, I suggest you to do following things immediately and don’t think on the results as of now, these things will definitely help you get a good first job.

Many institutes provide Advanced excel certification course, just go for it any time after exams or now i.e. 9 months before exams.
As you have not started your IPCC preparation and still CPT is just cleared go for CFA Level 1 preparation also as It’s also an Objective based exams and is recognizable with CA, any professional degree is an added advantage for just CAs who are over 30’s. The reason I chose CFA is that is what I interest in and it’s a lot more different but simple than CA. After completing your IPCC you can go for Level 2 exams.
Apply and go for SAP certification in Finance and accounts module anywhere in your life before you clear CA finals.

Please note these are just my personal point of view and in no ways I am saying that CA degree/course is inadequate or insufficient to anyone. I am saying that to increase your chances of getting an early good job any or all of abovementioned can be done.
