Hello Kirti, come on you're just 20. Cheer up. Yes I know the frustration you must be in because of repeated failures inspite of the honest hardwork but remember that some failures in life are inevitable. Failures teaches us what no books in this world can ever teach. It's ok if you want to join a different course but don't ever let these failures lower your self esteem n confidence. You can enroll for CIMA(UK) or CMA or you may also join CS. And since you are just at verge of completing your graduation, you may prepare for CAT, MAT, XAT ( If you are good at maths, reasoning and English). You may also join CFA. But think a lot before making such decisions. Talk to yourself n analyse where your interest lies n choose accordingly. And I really don't suggest you to quit IPCC now because you have already invested so many crucial years for this. It's really not worth quitting now. You never know what tomorrow has kept in stored for you. You can never tell the heat of the day by looking at the morning Sun. So just hold on. If you want you may pursue the above mentioned courses along with CA. I pray that you clear your exams this time itself. Good Luck. Wishing you all the success n happiness in life. Be brave n keep fighting.
