i am a ca final student. i got rank in both pe-1 n pe-11 and wanna to continue in final as well. till now i was doing my training in a small firm but now i have the opportunity to compute my 1.5 year training from ss kothari. but if i join them i can't take coaching classes due to outstation audits.
what i wanted to know should i join them now or it would be better to continue in small firm , getting rank in final as well and then work for same time in a big firm what would be the difference in both the options.
please suggest.

First of all i congratulate u on getting a rank in PE I as well as PCC, but what i think is that u should not miss the opportunity of joining Kothari b'oz it is a very very reputed firm and u'll get an awesome work exposure over there. N if u'll think in advance dat it won't be possible to study simultaneously then u would never be able to do so. There r students who carry on their articleship in big fours n pass their finals with flying colours. After u qualify, for a short while u'll enjoy ur rank n gud marks, but ultimately what will matter is the quality of work u've done in ur articleship n not the rank. May be b'oz of ur rank u'll get job in a short time but since u r an intelligent student i think u can get rank and carry on ur articleship with a gud firm like kothari too. Rest is ur decision. ALL THE BEST!!!
