This is 100% true and really sad (and stupidity to further ignore it and come out openly supporting ICAI and not to accept the hard facts).
There is no unity among many professional qualified CA's to take this issue for obvious reasons and those students who are suffering can't understand the fact that they should stop CA immediately after 2 attempts and keep some back up alternatives which can help them financially and offere relevant good jobs till they qualify CA.
Ssome tips for those who are either stuck with PE2 for long time or are finding difficult to pass out CA finals and importantly for those who have just enrolled for CPT.
1. Always keep a back up alternative side-by-side but clear Graduation first and then take up CFA or CS or any good professional course you find it suitable, interested and worth in job prospects.
2. Always apply for articleship with firms who pay you or count you deserving on performance rather sticking to stipend of ICAI. There are many such CA's who disagree the puny little stipends and always hand over more so look out such good CA's who are performing their best in servicing and reducing the hardships for students.
3. If you can't clear CA Finals in 3 attempts max just quit it. Seriously today there are lots of companies who appreciate a candidates experience and intelligence along with sincere hard work rather those who waste their time just appearing CA exams and still lack that over all development compared to many other students.
4. Among all these things always keep in mind that your degree alone won't give you a ticket to the best package. Create a habit to speak english, read journals, make professional friends, avoid social networking and wasting time on Iphones rather focus your interest in the course and get maximum experience.
It's important that you excel rather pass out in any course. Even a graduation degree can fetch you big packages and make CA a thing of the past provided you know what you are doing is the thing you are passionate about.
Lastly, I my self enjoy numbers and into Finance and hold a Graduation degree with CFA and still a CA Inter student appearing for CA finals for past 4 years and earning 540000 a year working with TATA AIG Insurance Company.
Had it been that I was continuing only CA without CFA my earnings would be slim so you all need to come up with some alternative and immediately work hard to cover up the years wasted and even those students who will enroll CA always remember. DON"T RELY ON CA ALONE ALWAYS PLAN AN ALTERNATIVE FOR A SATISFYING FUTURE.
Good luck!!
