Why the importance to 1st attempt cas?

Bcoz it shows that a candidate is,

1) Fast Learner

2) Hard Worker

3) Intelligence

4) Proper Time Manager and Reliable

Not that a person giving 2 attempts will not have these qualities, also its not as if there is any difference between a person who passes in one attempt and a person who passes in two attempts but the problem arises when a person takes 4 or more attempts to pass CA exam since it tells a lot about the candidate.

However, I have repeated it many times that this attempt thing is over-rated even in job sector if you are able to develop, a fast learning and executing capacity Plus the single most important and common skill of Comunication...A person who has actually passed CA knows that this attempt stuff is all hype to a certain extent. You have to remember that job sector is not rewarding compared to business sector..You are always going to be under-paid and employers need a reason to pay you less...

Question is,

1) What can you do?

2) How far are you ready to go?

The times have changed a lot in the last 4 years , If u wanna a good package at entry level itself u need to be a first attempt chartered accountant , if not take a 20k job and in 3 - 4 yrs u ll join the line of the first timers , ICAI wants package of chartereds to be raised how will the industry afford it if it removes 30000 ca per attempt besides economy is recovering out of reccesion , u find hundreds of people saying my dream was to be a ca but after realising my dream im still here , what is going on ? , the sister institute removes 630 students per attempt and even they have to face heat of fresh ca's , there was a time when a person used to address himself as a ca , people used to look up at him , respect him ,get inspired by him, a single handed qualification containing the utmost power to divulge in every field of industry  , what will be the future of this profession depends upon the how the institute regulates the demand  

time to time the selection criteria is going to be tuff , there was a time when age criteria, attempt criteria ware not a matter for disscussion because ca was in short supply but now a days if there is a vacancy for one post more than fiffty ca come to interview thats why corporate have such a selection criteria furthermore i agee that the candidate who have cleared their examination is very frist attempt have better qualities than other .
