did anyone read this sunday's "education times"? All of CA's andhey supporters and living in dark ages and not accepting the truth would see the truth.
it writes,"of course CAs have deep knowlege of finance;which MBAs don't have that much depth. But there is no doubt that recruiters have much higher likings for MBAs that they can contribute in many more ways to a Co; and are more proficient in getting things done by their staff. |

I have read this newspaper item. It is true.
You are right, people who say CA course is best and respected are living in a different world. They have a disease called blind faith.
Not only that, if you read my previous post of ICAI campus placements, and compare it with recent ones, these blind ppl would produly tell you that last time ICAI achieved 10% placement whereas this time it is 24%...is it something really so great?
And while saying this proudly they would forget all their theoritcal, insane matter they read in FM and Costing books and not bother to have a look at the packages, quality of jobs etc.
Just a glance of some figures from ICAI placements website -

Also see the that out the students placed, the proportion of students between 2.5 lakh to 4.99 lakhs p.a salary. Even some of the call centres pay more than that!!!
All those who claimed CA is the best course, kindly come out of your books and coaching classes and see the above facts (it is not my opinion). The great knowledge and skillsets and signing powers are well reflected in the packages they get.
