Career

My daughter failed twice in her ca inter and her age now is 23 and not even single group of ca inter is completed by her. Keeping her age in mind should she go for next attempt or should she drop and go for mba instead. (She wants to go for next attempt ca inter but now she is not confident about passing). Kindly suggest what should she do.

Ans: Assess her level of interest and commitment: Does your daughter have a strong desire to become a CA, or is she only pursuing it because it is expected of her? Is she willing to invest the necessary time and effort to pass the exams, or would she prefer to explore other options? Do consider her long-term goals as well. What does she hope to achieve in her career? Does becoming a CA align with her interests? Answer these questions and things will eventually become clearer for you and for her

Hi I started my CA at the age of 23.5 along with job , and I eventually managed to cleared group 1 of ca inter May 2024 and for second group I gave jan 25 attempt but failed due do poor marks in cost , this wan an first attempt , but now I skipped may 25 attempt because I was not clear shoup I gave one more attempt or not but I didn't, I quit my job due to study but result doesn't came well and i am considering to prepare for govt job while doing job , I lf I prepare for ca it will take 28 If from there I managed to clear infirst attempt , I may be feeling that while working and preparing govt is better decision. Shoul I continued my CA journey or should I quit it , any suggestions please
Ans: At a career crossroads, it's crucial to consider your priorities and interests, such as passion for CA and interest in government jobs. The time and effort required for CA exams or SSC, UPSC, and Banking Exams, should be considered. Financial considerations should also be taken into account, as if FINANCIAL STABILITY is a priority, returning to a job while preparing for a government exam might be a safer option. Alternative approaches include a hybrid approach, switching fully to government jobs for stability, structured work, and benefits, or trying one more CA attempt if you still have the motivation and confidence. If you're passionate about CA and believe you can clear it with focused effort, give it another chance. If you're unsure and more inclined towards job security, it's practical to shift towards government job preparation while working. Commit to your decision fully and avoid constantly second-guessing. All the best for your prosperous future!

Sir my daughter got jee mains 80percentile and vit 42548 rank srm 31000 Telangana emcet 6304 rank b. Arc rank 2600 b planning 1100 rank we are not able to choose which is the best and we are in Andhrapradesh and intermediate she got 98 percent which group is suitable her and vit vellore cse group is any chance or any suggestion sir
Ans: Your daughter has an excellent academic record with 98% in intermediate and strong ranks: 80 percentile in JEE Mains, 42,548 in VITEEE, 31,000 in SRM, 6,304 in Telangana EAMCET, and top ranks in B.Arch (2,600) and B.Planning (1,100). Admission to CSE at VIT Vellore is unlikely due to highly competitive cutoffs (usually under 1,600 for Category 2), but she can consider VIT AP or Bhopal campuses for CSE or related specializations like AI or Cybersecurity. SRM rank may allow admission in other branches but CSE at top SRM campuses requires better ranks. Telangana EAMCET rank is good for state colleges but may not secure premier branches. Given her strong PCM scores and interest, CSE and its specializations are suitable. Alternatively, with excellent B.Arch and B.Planning ranks, pursuing architecture or planning could be a great option. She should evaluate her interests and consider institutes like Thapar University or reputed private universities for better opportunities. Balancing her rank, interests, and career goals will help make the best choice. All the best for your daughter's admission and a bright future!

Sir My Son doing IEP program Computer Engineering with Thapar University Patiala and its 2+2 Credit Exchange program with Trinity College Dublin Ireland. Is this program worth for his future opportunities or he will continue his parent branch Robotics and AI here with Thapar University Patiala Campus.Which One is more worthful and having more career options. Please guide in detail. I shall be highly obliged and thankful.
Ans: Vikramm Sir, Your son’s IEP Computer Engineering program with a 2+2 credit exchange at Trinity College Dublin offers valuable international exposure, advanced curriculum, and global career opportunities, enhancing his academic and professional profile. Trinity’s reputation and research facilities provide a strong foundation for future studies or work abroad. However, adapting to a new country and higher costs are considerations. Alternatively, continuing with Robotics and AI at Thapar Patiala focuses on a specialized, high-demand field with excellent placements from top tech companies and a vibrant campus life. Thapar’s strong industry connections and infrastructure prepare students well for India’s growing AI and robotics sectors. Both options are worthwhile: the IEP program suits those seeking global exposure and broader computer engineering knowledge, while Robotics and AI at Thapar is ideal for early specialization with strong local opportunities. The best choice depends on your son’s career goals, willingness to study abroad, and preference for specialization versus broad learning. All the best for your Son's bright future!
