Thanks very much ,but am aware of the fact that CA has more scope in contrast,and 5 years from now ,don't you think Cs over CA is not a wise decision to make? please elaborate

okay I wanna make one thing clear, if you are into doing C.A.. remember few things that you would be required to do in order to clear and understand:- 1. full determination 2. failure is a part of life 3. hard work 4. patience and maybe lots of it 5. you might have to sacrifice ur social life for some time 6. don't ever think of giving up 7. don't cram anything cause c.a is a bit unexpected just my two cents! :)

your welcome Nilesh. you could also look into CFA its more finance oriented..that is if you are a finance lover; it has a pretty good scope too. But, im not sure how long it takes though.. you might wana search out for it.
