Hello to all the members over here..

As the phase which I am facing, I m too confuse regarding my career. Its seems like myself "good for anything" now.

Am very ambitious person with good academic record.. but now it seems like no worth.

I have completed my graduation BCom in EAFM Honours.

Recently persuing MCom in ABST Honours (Final).

Along with it , persuing CA.. completed up with articleship.

I have cleared PCC (First Group) in Nov, 2009 and after then given Second Group 3 times but yet not cleared. Still waiting for the results for May attempt.

I dont want to waste my time depending on CA results. Along with CA, want to do something else to enhance my motivation n creating earning source too.

Please suggest me what should I do asap.

Thanks in advance,

- Pooja Gupta

U have appeared for Ipcc 2nd grp 3 times, haven't cleared it, articleship already completed, pursuing M.Com and yet searching for other alternatives! I think its going to create more confusion... U should concentrate on ur CA only...try to clear IPCC as soon as possible...once u become a CA, ample earning opportunities will be available to u...dont run behind short term ambitions, it can spoil ur long term plans...

Ups and downs are bound to come, its not a big deal to fail...being ambitious is good but to fulfill ur ambitions u must have patience...

Anyway still if u disagree, now that ur articleship is over u can look for jobs preferably with ca firms or other pvt. cos. hiring graduates/post graduates, u can also go for public sector jobs via competitive exams requiring graduation like in banking sector or other govt. departments...another option i can suggest is of giving tutions...

Still plz think twice before taking final decision...

Hi,

My sincere suggestion is that CA DEMANDS TOTAL ATTENTION AND CONCENTRATION and if you are going to do any other course other than CA, believe me it is going to drain your energy .....fortunately you are only doing M.com which is not a diffucult course.....

Doing another professional course at this juncture is not advisable.......Just sit back, relax and since you have done hard work for your exams, why dont you reward yourself by taking time off from your daily hectic schedule ....visit some places and relax.......you can make plan to decide the course of action once your results are declared........
