COULD ANYONE PLEASE SUGGEST

ur friend might have told u 2 do so as there r subjects in acca about financial management which might help u in cfa also .

no other reasons although u could do cfa after mba also.

thx

THANKS BUT WHICH I SHOULD PREFER AFTER MBA FINANCE AS MY ONE COLLEGUE TOLD ME THAT IF I DO ACCA AFTER MBA FINANCE THEN IT MEANS I AM GOING BACK AGAIN TO LEVEL 1 SO I SHOULD AVIOD ACCA AND SHOULD DIRECTLY DO CFA. ME VERY CONFUSED WHAT TO DO. PLEASE DO SUGGEST


- wicky - 10-20-2010

u r right.

one more point is that if u do acca then u will have 2 take 3 years training also.

it all depends on u . no one can force u 2 do some thing.

if u work hard u could do cfa even after acca.

thx
