Hi All,
Dont' join a course, just because its a fad as others a doing. Look all the international CFAs' cud not use their analytical skills to forecast the financial turmoil among others.
Like CA, CFA,USA & CFA India are good it their own ways. Both the CFAs require rigorous study & commitment. The knowledge pre-requisites are demanding & my personal opinion is other Indian courses like ICWAI,ICS,ICA dont really give enough grounding..
Actually the younger students are more intelligent than the course content of these degrees.
So pursue a course after analysing it in unbaised way.
Good Luck..
