CA, ACCA or ICAEW - What to do after A Levels? - yousuf_gatta - 01-22-2007
Hello!
Currently i m in the second year of A levels, and have got 3As (mashallah) in my AS level.
Now i want to ask whether i should go for ACCA, CA or ICAEW after my A levels.
One more thing i want to ask is whether GP(general paper) compulsary or preferable for getting in any of the degrees stated above.

Nothing is compulsory for ACCA & for CA an equivalence certificate from Interboard Committee (equal to Inter)
Don't have any info on ICAEW.
If you are taking my advice, then i would urge you to go for ACCA. But if ICAEW is possible for you then thats better in PK market than ACCA.

Well i have thought about ACCA but if i do ACCA then i have plans to do CA, as i have heard that ACCA get exemption of 4 modules. IS THIS TRUE?

AOA,
Yes it is true that you could get exempted upto module D of ICAP. another advantage of ACCA is that will get BSc(Hons) in applied accounting after completion of part 2 and submission of a research and analysis project. Moreover it is globally recognized. If you have any queries don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks salman!
secondly as CA is considered to be difficult wat do u think is the passing percentage of module E and F. I have even heard that recently ICAP is increasing the passing percentage which might reduce the value of CA. Wat do you think?
And one more thing( i hope i m not bugging u alot D). What do u think about ICAEW, and any exemptions for it if we do it after ACCA?
