23 October 2016 Suresh sir, only time can tell whether your decision to pursue CA course was right or wrong. Before, joining CA course, I presume you have done the basic homework of knowing the Eligibility criteria to register as a CA student, mandatory training period duration under a CA or CA Firm (other than - Orientation, ITT, GMCS), Opportunities of CA Industrial Training at appropriate time period, the Stipend offered by your Principal, Entitlement to Examination Leave, Transfer from Principal to Principal(in a likely scenario) etc.

As you have indicated your interest to pursue the CA course, I think that is very important for taking up any course. In short, you got to have mainly 4 P's to become Chartered Accountant according to me :

First P - Passion
Second P - Patience
Third P - Perseverance
Fourth P - Pragmatism

The course is going to showcase a plethora of opportunities and challenges. So, try to take a holistic view in order to strike a right balance, wish you all the very best.
