Can ca articleship be completed after passing ca final

Hi Friends, I have a few questions regarding the CA articleship.

First I am already a graduate but not from commerce and my % is below 60. So can I start with the ITT etc now and after improving my % get into the articleship?

Also I am also doing a PG course which I would want to finish before article training, and I would also want to finish all exams of CA (IPCC, Final etc) along with my current studies. So can I do this?

And does ICAI recognize anyother work experience besides the articleship for conferring CA qualification?

I would really appreciate your answers...

Dear Sir
If u arent from a commerce stream & ur % are below 60 than u will not get direct entry to CA IPCC untill u improve ur %.
U can not even join ITT bcz until and unless u r registered u can not go for IT & OT & for registration u have to fulfil the requirement of %

Another thing is that if u are done with ur PG course than u can join IPCC at any time
U can not attempt the CA Final examination before completing 2.5 years of articleship & if u are from direct entry than for writing the IPCC u need to complete 9 months of articleship.

No other work experience is considered by ICAI, even if U are an IAS than too u will necessarily have to complete the Articleship.
Hard rules by ICAI

Second- If u improve ur % in graduation and take entry into IPCC thru direct entry system than u can do ur PG course along with CA IPCC, but u will have to give the necessary details to ICAI that along wid articleship u are pursuing PG. the college timings and articleship office timing should not clash otherwise it will be deemed that u are not going to office
At one time u can join only 1 course with CA.
