try to understand where you r doing wrong? and try to improve your mistakes.nothing is impossible. my personal advice you should go for CA . you can join other cources also with CA

If you want to do job in corporate sector then you should go for MBA, if interested in practice then go for CA, If interested in doing business then go for either MBA (preferred) or CA as you like...

Hi Aditya Sir, Thanks for your reply...i know all my mistakes and i am sure that i will crack CPT in Dec2011 but to complete CA it will take 4 or 5 yrs and i will be of 26 or 27 so then it would be too late and when i wil get job...
Hi Ravi Sir, thanks for your reply..my main problem is my age becoz my many frnds told me that if u have started CA before 2 or 3 yrs then it would be good but now its too late to do CA becoz now i have completed my graduation.

Dear Rajeev, to study of any professional course, minimum duration is 3 years and above. completion is depend upon your ability, skill and hardworking. I advice you to join MBA with part time job or full time job. Else  if you are confident  to clear all CA exam's then first clear CPT and then join articleship with any good CA firm.

Why u tense about age. . ?? Forget age and then think again. But my personal thinking is u should go for MBA but only from top university. . . . Otherwise MBA is worthless. If u want to preaper for CAT. . i dont think it was so easy in comparision to CPT. . . . . Best of luck

dear only in CPT if the situation is like this.. what about next levels.. nothing to worry.. just keep some extra concentration. first on first level of CA. ( CPT ).  after that you must work hard more than what you expect. i suggest for CA rather than MBA. CA is a four year course. where as MBA 2 years.. and it is a heavy budget. CA is a low budget but high values comparing to MBA think well. best of luck

Well u should go for CA. and try to give ur best dear......and just think na that after becoming CA. what a awesome feeling u can get........which u will miss if u dont do CA.

Hey just dont underestimate urself and dont listen to any negative thinker, rather listen to ur own h8rt.......and believe ir urself.......that u will do and going to get......

Well why r u thinking 4 age .......dnt think so...and for Job once u clear ur CPT then u have to attend Articleship.......so be happy that u r getting such gr8t opportunuity to work with CA and many others.....This is only happen in CA field........

Regards....

Dear Rajeev, I have clered my CPT in 5th attempt and I have appeared in nov 2010 IPCC, I got exemption in Acc & Taxation. So the point is CPT is some thing in which u want deep knowledge when ur luck is not with u. Prepare for Dec 2011, just go through each and every line & word of ur module. Definately u will clear it.

After all CA  is THE CA and MBA is just a mba.

SO,BEST OF LUCK FOR DEC 2011 CPT

Rajeev ji, I am a BBA graduate(just clear this year) I am aged 20 and I am a IPCC student as well(wrote may 11 exam).
As your case, my decition to do MBA or CA was tough.
When I choose MBA in an average institute, pass out guarantee is almost sure but I dont get better status as a CA.
I know that pass out guarantee in CA is not sure. But my strong confidence help me to do CA.
I am not qualified to guide you. But I Recoment you As I take decition to do CA, I suggest you to do CA but first go as an article trainee in a CA Firm.

I am sure we will become Chartered Accountants with the help of god.

Thnx Amit Sir!!!!!
thanks everyone for guiding me.....

I m also as  ur same age and I  suggest only u should firstly focus on your CPT in Dec and preparation of CAT also. 

Dont Worry Rajeev.., go for CA..., as u have done ur B.com, u may get exemption from CPT, wait and watch.., but dont quit CA..,
