Ans: Hello Aniruddha,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to hear that your nephew has cleared his CA in 2021 and now wishes to pursue MS in Accounting and CPA in the USA. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that there are numerous benefits associated with pursuing an MS in Accounting in the USA on completion of CA. Doing so, deepens one’s comprehension of accounting concepts, broadens expertise in specialized fields of study, as well as supplements the CA qualification. Not just that, knowledge and reputation is enhanced, particularly in the US accounting business, through pursuing CPA (Certified Public Accountant) certification alongside.

I would recommend that your nephew takes into account prominent universities offering MS in Accounting,viz., University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, University of Southern California, or University of Texas at Austin. The CPA prerequisites for each state is unique, nevertheless, states viz., California, New York, and Texas frequently have numerous options and thriving accounting businesses.

Remember that based on the location, university opted for, and the duration of the course, the costs can differ greatly, but could span from $30,000 to $70,000 or higher annually. Also bear in mind that based on variables such as the geography, work experience, and work role, salaries for CPAs in the USA can range from $50,000 to $100,000+ per year after graduation.

Individual choices, professional goals, as well as financial constraints play a key role in selecting a state and university for their CPA education. To make an educated choice, I would suggest that your nephew conducts an all-round study as well gets in touch with academic counselors or industry experts for advice.

Ans: Hello,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to know that you have completed your Master of Commerce (M.Com) and possess 15 years of work experience. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that given your vast experience, at 45, pursuing the US CPA is a wise decision, as it can improve your employment opportunities in accounting and finance to a great extent. I would like to tell you that the CPA credential is highly valued and can lead to senior positions and specialized possibilities. Bear in mind that age can be an asset that indicates maturity and in-depth sector knowledge, both of which employers value.

Pursuing a Master's in Accounting and Analytics in the US is a feasible choice if you wish to expand your knowledge and acquire abilities in high-demand areas. A number of professionals seamlessly shift to academic programs later in their careers, and STEM-designated programs provide excellent employment opportunities in the United States. For this reason, moving to the USA can be beneficial as long as you are prepared for the personal and financial investment that would be required.

I have completed my msc in biochemistry n now doing internship but I am confusing about my future because I see this field don't pay me inuff for life even for future... N don't have more jobs in Maharashtra. I don't like production jobs but in Pharma only production pay much so what can I do .. Can u suggest me which job is high payable after Msc biochemistry
Ans: Hi Nandu,

Greetings!

Could you please let me know which year you completed your course and whether you are currently doing an internship or apprenticeship? An internship is part of the curriculum, where students gain practical training, sometimes with a stipend and sometimes without. After completing your course, you can opt for an apprenticeship, which typically lasts one to one and a half years and includes a stipend, usually split 50%-50% between the industry and government.

If you are in the internship phase, please inform me about the specific field you are working in. Initially, you may not expect a high salary, but after gaining expertise in your field, your compensation will improve. Typically, this takes about three years, so it’s important to focus on skill acquisition for a better future.

If your internship aligns with your field of study, I encourage you to continue and consider starting a medical lab or exploring opportunities in medical devices related to biochemistry. However, pursuing a career in pharmaceutical production may not be suitable for you, as it is a different field, and you may find it challenging to grasp the processes involved since you are currently inexperienced in that area.

Please share the specific field of your internship, and I would be happy to provide more tailored advice.
with regards
