Well......i think u should continue, there is a lot of scope in CA.

Age is not an important factor, knowledge and understanding is more important.

My Best Wishes !!

Dear Sir,

It’s my humble request to continue your study and complete your CA. Since you are a teacher yourself you can very well use your experience in your study. Forget about your age.

Try and look at the success which is waiting for you for a long time. This is the best time to give your best shot. At least for your family go for it once.

Age 32 ho ya 42 scope is always there for knowledgeable person.

All the Best

Ofcoarse whatever HARSHIT said, was not incorrect... I mean, i know, age factor do matters for you.. But then, at the same time, look at the fruits, benefits u get after being a respectec C.A. .....

Trust me, the whole life changes, whether u continue with ur coaching or not thereafter.. But surely, the level of understanding and percieving every thing changes....

So, my suggestion will be to continue if u really want to, coz at this age even, u r enthusiast to do it,,, so u shd go ahead....

Mr Dheeraj Kumar,

You should have that Burning desire to complete.I completed my Intermediate in Nov 1998 and I am going to write my Final for the first time in Nov 2009 because I too had some Problems like You.You are Just 29 Years Old.I am 40 Years Old.

Dear Sivaram sir

I have to do articleship. Therefore all the ways to earn will be atopped. So I know I can do that. But should I take such risk

We are telling you the reality Sir.

I am having more then 3 years of corporate experience and as per my personal observation there is always scope for knowledgeable person. But commitment is really essential.

You may also share your knowledge through CAClubindia. It will surely give you good confidence.

Best Regards

There is not so great risk.... I mean, if u urself become dedicated, than no risk is high....

Its jst on u.., wo kehte hain na "IF U THINK U CAN, U WILL"..... So,,, more than our suggestions or advices,,.. u shd decide whether u want to do it or not... And once u decide, then jst march towards it...

Dear Dheeraj,

I also Agreed with Mr. Sivaram and Ankurji.

My self aged 32 years, have joined course on 1997, and given my first appearence only on November 2008 due to the same situation like that of you, & fortunately cleared 1st group, and again preparing for group of Nov 09.

CA qualification will definitely ad value, I have no doubt about that even .01%. like ankurji told, I have corporate experience of nearly 7 years, and I definitely felt the value of CA's.

For your information, for completing this CA, I have resigned from that top MNC and presently working in a small organisation to look after family as well as study.

for getting something you have to compromise something. it is worth compromising another 3 years in your life, for the remaining 40 years.

Dear Dheeraj,

There is a professor of MAFA in Chennai, Mr. S.D. Bala who took admission at the age of 55 and became Chartered Accountant at the age of 60 (on his 60th birthday)!!

Though he was at the best position in SBI he took CA saying it was his Childhood Ambition (CA)!!

Go for it............it will really change your future. 5 years of hard work will change your future but if you will think and get puzzeled in these things whether to do or not then you will not get those things throughtout your life.

Best of Luck!!
