hey!
Imran! one thing i would like to mention here is that while i shifted to modular system, i had appeared for fe2 exam so i had a base for audit,tax and costing,still iwas scared to join articles thinking i wont get sufficient time to study,but now i regret that coz i never flunked audit,tax etc even when i was in foundation so i went thru them easily in modular system.
i dont know about ur history , if u have studied these subject already then u dont have to worry much about module D exam. But if u r a regular modular student,then i would say that MOdule D is going to be tougher than rest of modules.
i havent yet started articles ,but i think if u dont have a base for auditing,i mean if u have never studied auditing ,then u will face difficulties in articles.Why i m saying this ,is that recently i appeared for the test of KPMG lhr,and believe me that except for a 20 marks essay, the whole 80 marks paper was from auditing. Now i m not sure ,if some initial audit knowldge is really important before u start ur training ocz these tests r all fake thing.i hope somone more knowledgeable can guide us regarding this.
So make ur decision after weighing all the pros and cons.
Having done B.com,u can start registered articles though u r not done wid foundation. But if u r going to join registered articles u wont be allowed to sit for any attempt that is due within 6 months of ur date of registration so i m afraid u wont be able to appear for the autumn attempt and that was another reason why i kept delaying my articles coz that means ur foundation will be pending for a whole year.(or may be more than that, if u dont clear it in first attempt)
Anyways!!!!!! in the end its u , who have to make the decision, we can only suggest.
P.S i dont know the exact differnce between article ship and internship. what i hear that that in other fields like MBA etc, training with some firm or org is called internship and In CA i hear the word articleship for our training.so i guess internship,apprenticeship and articleship are one and the same thing depending upon the field u r in.
Any one can tell the Exact difference??????<font face='Arial Black'></font id='Arial Black'><font color=purple></font id=purple>
