no ur idea is not praiseworthy at all.........if institute has decided something it is for the benefit of the students..... regarding articleship i wud say that u shud concentrate on the work is given to u by ur present boss,whatever it is and however small it is........... many small town students have set examples by becoming ca and getting job in india and overseas too. and that too without getting a higher exposure or any tuitions.........................so i juss wanna tel u, concentrate on ur office work,concentrate on ur study...I feel that if u do this two jobs sincerely, u'll c ur doubts and difficulties melting away....
and institute has restricken the transfer rules juss to avoid dummy system...... try to sort out ur probs with the boss coz he has experienced and still experiencing the lack or situation of less work and less exposure,but then he has become ca too by surviving and getting triumph upon those difficulties :)
good luck
