[V Reddy]

Bachelors in Commerce at ICFAI . Intend to study MBA along with Charted Financial Analyst [CFA] in the same college after completing Bachelor's. My present college building image is there on that url

The ragging today was the funniest part. Everyone was made to tell about themselves infront of all the students of the institute . Thankfully no one asked me silly questions . There were a couple of Aussies in there and when their turn came, some shouted Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi . It was fun

Hey i've also planned to do the same think . I remember you saying you wanted to do another course than B.com . Changed your plans?

I was a dilemma myself too before joining this college on whether to study UG in Aus , ICFAI or Badruka (Best college for Commerce in Hyderabad ) . Joined this as i thought i should improve my communication skills a bit and also the curriculum in this was more stressed on what you face in a job

Yea i really wanted to do engineering.. but now that im in my last year of school , getting into engineering requires lots more work than im currently doing. i do a fair amount of work but i doubt i can raise it up like lots more notches..

Im just too involved with rep cricket , school cricket , soccer , organizing parties, social life , gf and such taking time ... and i need to do summer school to catch up on my last year of physics as i made an error in judgement when i was taking subjects..

Dunno really if i do quite well i may do engineering though i feel like doing Bcom now..and i heard theres big money behind CA

Well i always wanted to go into the finance side.

Doesn't CA require more hardwork than Engineering? Well when i enquired about it , most people said that you need to study 6-10 hrs a day atleast. The pass percentage of it is only around 8% in India .

[lord_of_darkness]

yea well i think when i come into uni i will have a lot more inspiration *hopefully* and work a lot harder towards getting a CA as i wont be as tied up i think

Grr, engineering...all of my friends from high school are doing that, I'm all alone in doing Arts.

Ah well, at least I get more time off than they do.

[V Reddy]

Well i am going to try CA along with B.com and so by the time i complete my B.com , it will be decided whether i can do it or not. If i don't then MBA and CFA at the same time and then Phd if i have the desire. BTW, i don't think the procedure for becoming CA is as tough as it is in India.

[lord_of_darkness]

^ yeh probably not mate.. hopefully not !!

Ah well, at least I get more time off than they do

that is true mate, what uni do you go to? in the end it just goes down to doing what you enjoy the best..

[_Ed_]

I'm at Auckland uni.

Nice timetable for the 2nd semester, start at 12 every day and nothing at all on Friday.

[lord_of_darkness]
