Hi Ankita, First of all congratulation for clearing the PE-2 exam. I also cleared my PE - 2 exam in November 06. In my opinion you shpuld join CPA. The basic qualification for joinig the CPA course is CA. First you become a CA than you go for CPA. After ca it is only for 2 years course. So don't take a tenssion in advance.

Thanks to both of you - Sahil & Vinayak Nayak.
Actually I have heard from somewhere that preparation for CPA can be done alongwith CA to save the time.Is it not right?

yes ankita you are absolutely righ. you can study cpa alongwith ca. this is also bull sh*t. fully wrong information which this sahil has provided. the basic qualification to get into cpa is clear your pe-2/mcom part 1 and do cpa from colorado state, or if you are a graduate then do a federal taxation course and then you are eligible. there is nothing like you need to do ca or cs or anything. ok bye

Dear Nikita,

I can assure that you haven't taken a bad decision. infact it's a very good combination. infact my principal in a FCA and ACS. He practices both and hence he is able to provide a complete service to his clients. Moreover one of my teacher is a FCA, AICWA, ACS. he was practising till the last three months. Now he is the CFO of SATHYAM. People say that he earns around Rs. 4 crores a year.

SO have you taken a wrong decision Nikita... Come on Cheer up. All the very Best!!!!!!
