Continue CA or not.

420 views 9 replies
Hi friends I am in CA final.
My age is 31.
I am not married.
I left CA due to personal reasons in 2013.

I need advice from my seniors on CCI that whether should I continue with CA or forget about it.

I have no idea what next needs to be done.
I don't have any practical exposure. I was a dummy.

I will be really grateful if the reader replies back.

Are you into job since 2013!
I was in depression
Go for a suitable job

Finish it off, and that value will be there. Everyone is recognised as a CA. 

I am having an option to do job and I am confused whether I should work in a CA firm or a company.

plz guide me.

Mujhe help karne wala koi nahi hai.

Hi, everyone is working to satisfy their basic amenities. Which ever job, either in an accountancy company or corporate, it is all to achieve a little better standard of life and plan post retirement. If you contact friendly job placement consultancies, they have a lot of exposure about wages in the long run. Try them as there is nothing wrong with it.

Don't give up. I think it is a good idea to work in a CA firm. A bit of hard work and determination is all that is needed. I have seen people in their forties and fifties clearing professional courses. So age is not a concern here I think.

If possible, go for private coaching or opt for online classes. If you can spare a bit of extra time, even self study is a good option.

After quitting CA You can go with CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) which is one of the career options for CA dropouts (who left for some reasons). By completing CFA you can find opportunities in Equity Research, Research Analysis, Investment Banking, Portfolio Management, Auditing, etc.

It is a certified course that will give you a career opportunity globally and earn a handsome amount of money. But CA would have limited you only to India.

To become a CFA you have to clear three levels of the exam. You also need to have four years of practical work experience. You can register for the CFA after graduation or if you are in the final year of graduation.

CFA is overall more expensive as compared to CA and other domestic courses. Even the examination fee is far more than the registration fee of CA.
