What matters most is the knwoledge that you posses rather than the no of attempts. So rest assured of a good career when you become CMA provided you have good knowledge.
I will tell you a story told by one of very senior CA.
One of his students passed CA Final after more than 20 attempts. He was very happy but all other students were laughing. He asked why are you guys laughing?
They said he took so many attempts how will he find a job?
Teacher said--Guys are you MAD. He is a celebrity. His name is in papers. Any good company will hire him thinking this person must have something in him that he never gave up. They will salute his never say die spirit. Nobody knows you. You passed in 3 attempts. Above all he is better than you guys in all subjects. He has studied the same subject 20+ times more than you have.
So just cheer up. And have the same Never Say Die attitude.

Thank u so much sir, i was suggested by many people that instead of attempting number of times its better to go to some other course like MBA or Bank POs, so one of my concerns is about the 3 continuous failure and another one is whether i can get a job, ur reply is really encouraging, if anybody suggests me again am very confident to give an answer with the help ur encouraging words. Thanks a lot.
