HI Friends...I am a CA (2008 May passout) and busy with my regular office works.

Now I feel like studying something which is not too hectic( as I am too busy at office) and something related my studies.

Can anyone suggest me whether I need to join CWA or CS. I know both r tough. But just wanna know which one is better for me besides my busy office schedules.

Choose the course as per ur likes or dislikes...!!

Though i m a CS student but i think CA+CWA is a better option than CA+CS !!

Moreover,

CS is based on a entirely different concept than the CA,

but concepts of CWA and CA are quite similar !!
