I am a student (Commerce) from Jabalpur just finished up with 12th board exams. I simply planned to do B.Com + MBA but my seniors suggested to do some professional courses with it like CA, ICWA and CS So bro here the confusion comes as everyone knew that CA is an opportunity having a very good scope and pay now a days but due to its long term studies and patience required I am not able to do so was searching an alternative of its and found ICWA but dont know that is ICWA having a good scope and pay in India. I googled about it and found its not good no scope and no good pay but some of mine friends said that not opportunities are opening for ICWA and scope is also now a days good and pay too BUT I AM CONFUSED IS IT REALLY A GOOD OPTION.......Hope I will get an effective reply from the members here...

Kindly appreciate Google is not the right method to judge the worth of a particular course. Any good course in sync with your interest and with right attitude and approach is enough to put you on top of your career.

Also avoid judging a course from its paying capacity bcoz there is no fix formula to quantify the paying capacity of a course. In fact paying capacity of any course is dependent on your capability.

I would suggest you to explore your interest. There are certain areas of interest like Audit, law compliance, Finance, Litigation, Income Tax etc. If you are interested in subjects like Income Tax, service tax, audit etc then you should go for a combo of CA + MBA (Finance).

Further if you are interested in Law compliance or Litigation etc then you can go for CS+LL.B.

As per my suggestion develop your interest in finance and Tax and join CA with your B. Com. Pursue CA with hard work and finish your B. Com with good marks and knowledge. After completing your B. Com join a top institute for MBA (Finance).

Your final qualification of CA + MBA (Finance) with top positive and professional attitude and knowledge would certainly help you to get a good job and good management position.

All the best

Dear

All depends on the capabilityies you have acquired till date and based on that your future will be decided

If your communication skill, authority on english and mathematics is excellent you should aim for CAT from now, Do B.COM and focus on CAT Preparation.

But

you are afraiding from doing hard work require in C.A then how can you beat best of indian students in CAT

Nothing comes free in this world you have to sweat it out and earn it.

Next scenario

You are hard worker, dedicated to your goal then there is nothing like C.A , Clear IPCC join a C.A and there is a bright career with umpteen oppertunities for a middle class student from a small city.

other scenario

You want to settle down early in life due to financial compulsion of family Go for ICWAI and do job along side . One day you will also get success in this route but road is little longer.

Stay focussed and dedicated , what ever career you choose will give you success. Do not ask here and there every one has different opinion , it is like blind man holding a elephant.

Introspect yourself , your resources, capabilities and family support then decide. once decide then stick to that. Every road goes toward glory the only thing needed is walker should have trust on himself.

Best of luck
