Hey Guys,
I have given my SSC examinations in March,2012 from Borivali and waiting for the results and I have already decided to be a CA but had a certain queries in my mind like:

1.Can CA and CS be done simultaneously?If yes,can you please suggest me some of the best classes for the same in mumbai.

2.From when the preparation for the CPT examinations is to be started?

3.What kind of colleges should I search for?ie.colleges good for teaching or else that colleges where attendance is not compulsory.

and would be better if you also suggest some commerce colleges helpful for ca.

Dear Ameya,

First you have not told that have u completed graducation or not?

I think you must have completed your graducation.

You can give CPT exam in the month of June or December.

For CPT exam you have to prepare only for 3 months and not more than that.

You can do CA, CS or CMA anyone or all simultaneously.

But when your articleship will start i.e. after passing IPCC (After one year of CPT minimum), you can carry on only one course alongwith CA. If you wanna do CS, you can go for it. But alongwith both CA & CS, you can't do any graducation(If not done) or post graducation course.

For CPT exam don't take much stress about it. It's a very easy exam at all. Any coaching you take for it, it doesn't matter.

And sorry I can't suggest any coaching for CPT in Mumbai, bacause I am from Rajasthan.

No college can help to became CA, you have to go for self study or any coachings.

Hope it would be helpful for you.

For any other query you can again write.

Thank you Nitesh,
The information given by you was very helpful.

But As mentioned before,I have just given my SSC exam ie. have not completed my graduation.
So,would Graduation be done along with CA & CS through any Institute of Distance & Open Learning?

Dear Ameya,

I have told you earlier that along with CA only one course can be done, whether regular or distance learning. Hence if u wanna do graducation along with CA, you can do. But at the same time you can't do CS. You have to choose one from CS and Graducation.

One more suggestion I have regarding this,

You should do graducation along with CA. After completion of graducation, your CS foundation will be exempted i.e. no need to give CS foundation, you can give directly CS executive after graducation. So I think you should first complete graducation, then join CS executive along with CA.

Dear Nitesh,
Are you 100% sure that only one course can be done along with CA?
Bçoz I have heard from a friend of mine (who is himself a CA) that his friend is doing CA and CS along with BMS.

Dear Ameya,

I am 200% sure that along with CA only one course can be done, whether regular or distance learning.

As far as your concerned that your ca friend said, I want to tell you that along with CA, unlimited courses you can done, but without informing ICAI. If you want to do two courses, ICAI will not permit you. So you can do more than one courses along with CA without taking consent of ICAI. But anytime ICAI found your guilt, you can be punished by cancellation of membership.

But as looking at past track record of this, no case has been arised like this, while mostly ca students are doing more than one courses along with ca.

So,

BINDAAAS RAHO MASTI KARO, GRADUATION KARO CHAHE CS KARO PAR ICAI SE MAT DARO...............
