Hi Professionals!!

I would like to solicit your views on advice to make a choice in my last leg of career.B4 this I would like to provide sm background on my profile

CA (Inter) as well CS (inter) both Completed in 2003 ( Did Articles from 2000-03) .

Attempted both CA (Final) as well CS(Final) in 2004 but without success.

Joined MNC co in West Africa (Ivory Coast) and working for last 3 years (2005 to till date)

Hi Sankar..

For ur information there are many people who have completed CA after crossing 30s.....u r still 28...so i think if u r determined & dedicated u can clear final.....But dont quit job...see if u can get leave to study & write exam...

All the Best.

Sankar, there will not be long leaves for exams anytrime...but you'll have to take up study seriously...a disciplined and dedicated study wil help you, coupled with proper and selective guidance...

Keep in mind the furure benefits for many years if you clear your Finals..then you'll automatically get the motivation yourself..

hi shankar..i dont find any reason why u should not complete ur CA. Age is immaterial if ur really willing to complete it with full enthusiasm. also there is no need for u to take a very long leave. only, u will require leave for the exam time. A commited & deciplined study of just " 3 Hours" per day can get u through. provided u work with utmost PASSION.

All d best......bye.
