I don't believe that.
The reason is that how you can measure toughness? See, its personal matter, one thing may be difficult to other but easy to you and vice versa.
Btw, I don't think C.A. is toughest from any point of view. Although, it may be the longest course in the world, thanks to an extraordinary training period.

I too got an sms...
Seems someone spreading it for fun..
I dont think Guiness may choose any course as tough or easy..
Should we not think like if chosen so,on what parameters ? On what parameter a course is easy or tough ?

whether or not the sms is rumor or not... but i believe that CA is not a tough course.. maybe it needs hardwork but there are other competitive courses in INDIA like IIT JEE, CAT, which really kills.. thats y they are paid much more than us..

I tend to differ with the views posted regarding the news which till now is unconfirmed.We should not forget that there is a provision in the CA regulations which allows the Institute to manipulate the pass percentage of successful candidates.Today many bright students also thinks of CA as a career option much like like medical & engineering.If you deliberately fail someone only to maintain the demand or to keep the notion alive that our course is tough to clear,I think we should rethink.If some bright students lefts the course on not being sure about the examination system it"ll be a loss to the Institute & the accounting profession as a whole who would otherwise turn out to be brilliant CAs.
