Dear Hitesh - Never ever ever ever give up , says winston Churchill .
For how long you been trying?
I am going to be 32 but not married and have no responsibilities on me.
I don't know what should I do and will age matter on expected salary....
My age will be at least 33 till I complete my CA and that too with negligible experience.

plz help
I am in a dilemma and clueless what next needs to be done.
skip the May attempt and appear for November and secure rank

Try for jobs along with CA preparation.

First start reading then you score rank lol

When did he say that he wants to secure a rank? Please be polite.

Its ok guys
Hi anonymous bro...dont you see anything sarcasm of his queries...see all his queries once...i dont like it
Your favourite word is sarcasm!!!
Yaa but your attitude only sarcasm
Even, I'm at 41yrs, still preparing for CMA exams among so many responsibilities, because of my passion in that course...
Start searching job in CA firms, even if they pay you very less, you should take that job.
At least by the time you'll clear your CA, you will have good experience and skill set and you can demand a good package from company.
I won't suggest for getting into practice as I have seen my friends struggling for money and they have dropped it and accepted jobs.
I would suggest take a break of some months from studies and do a job in some good CA firm where there is lot of things to learn.
Good Luck!!
