Ya that is obvious.....If u clear in first attempt than u can get good salary but first attemper can also get good salary if he has done his articelship from good firm or has good communication skills and finally the location of job........

@ Gayatri...yes you are true....if working in good firm ,you have to devote 10 to 12 hours per day...and hence you dont get time to study...i was lucky..done articleship in med.size firm..and post qualification had good stuff of experiences..
