Choose one degree, acca or cima.

Studying along with job is possible, if you work persistently & hard enough

Well Mr. Zeeshan, It depends on your interests. either you like Financial Accounting or Management Accounting. Studying along with job, takes a considerable devotion and efforts espacially if one is going forward for a professional degree like ACCA or CIMA.

Kindly only starts theses, once you are confident that you may be able to give appropriate time. Otherwise you will end up wasting a lot of time and money.
