Hi,
Well there really is no way you can go directly for CA. But still it is pretty much the same time period as that in Pakistan of about 6 1/2 years (4 years college, 30 months job experience). The only difference is that instead of studying at an institute specifically for CA you study at a univ. Plus you get a bachelors degree (eg BBA, B.Comm) from a university of your choice. I consider it a good thing since at least in Pak. (I'm not sure about England), people usually study seperately for B.Comm along with CA. Also, you can explore other areas of study while at a univ. for instance, I'm going to be taking an Actuarial Science course in my first semester.
Well that's my opinion, the rest is obviously up to you.
