hello frnds I have cleared both the groups of ipcc exam. i have some doubts about articleship.

1. While registering for the ipcc course i had paid Rs.9000. To register as an article i am told Rs.2000 has to be paid. is it so? nobody frm the institute has however confirmed this.

2. Is it advisable to try for articleship at Big 4? or mid size firms are better? I want exposure to both tax and audit and also flexibility since i am in sy bcom and my college is very particular about attendance. and can anyone pls suggest some mid size firms in mumbai?

thanks
