Doing a job and CA simultaneously

Hi Everybody,

i work in a bpo and my age is 26 yrs. i have passed 12th science and also hold a diploma in computers. Following are my concerns:

1)  It is my dream to do CA (because i want to do something worthwhile in life and make a career); however, i don't have any idea whether a job and CA course can be done simultaneously. Are there examples wherein people did both the things. So please advise. 

i apologize, if i have asked some irrelevant and meaningless question.

2) Is it mandatory to have a Bachelors degree (like B.Com) along with CA for better prospects?

3) Also, please advise if one completes CA at the age of around 31 then what are the prospects of getting a job? Would age factor come into picture and make it difficult or impossible to get a job?

Thanks,

Kamal

Hello Kamalkant,

     As per my information it is not that easy to do job simultaneously while pursuing CA. And it is not at all mandatory to have a b.com degree because once u are CA no one asks for the degree. There are no such problems of age factor but yes it would be good if u become CA  as soon as possible. I have seen people becoming CA at age of 31.

Thanks a lot for the guidance, Pournima.

So with the response given above, what you wanna do ?

i'll do CPT and job simultaneously. Depending on CPT result, i'll evaluate further course of action. Thanks a lot, sir, for following this up.
