Yes, you can pursue CFA. However, keeping in mind your age, it is advisable that you first decide on your interest areas and long-term career objectives & then take a call. Generally, one pursues CFA along with employment as the course has a self-study model. So, in case you are still not employed and are keen on a career in capital markets, then pick up a work assignment in the said industry and simultaneously enrol for CFA.
