What should I do after completing B.Com?

The Most Common Choices Chartered Accountant (CA) One of the most common careers that cross every commerce student's mind is CA. CA exams are conducted by Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAI) and require one to clear 3 Examinations over the period of time that are CPT, IPCC and Final CA. Since you are done with your graduation, you are eligible to directly appear for IPCC which consists of two groups. After clearing one of the groups, a student is required to register for articles with experienced CA's for a period of two and a half years. After clearing both groups of IPCC and successfully completing your articles you can appear for Final CA. Final CA again has two groups and after clearing both the groups, you can proudly affix the words CA before your name. Masters of Commerce (M.Com) Done with the B.Com now next what? I am sure most of you said M.Com. It is very common to students going for the Master's degree in Commerce after completing B.Com. It is a two-year program and you can pursue it from any of the recognised institutes. M.Com is a program that focuses on the systematic study of Accounting, Business, Finance, Economics, Statistics, Taxation, Marketing and Management and therefore it gives insights about all the fields. Masters of Business Administration (MBA in Finance) There is always someone in the family who will advise you to pursue MBA. A good career in MBA totally depends on the credibility of the institute that you are pursuing from. If you are an IIM student then success will follow you to your doorsteps but do MBA from an ordinary and not much-renowned Institute will only add numbers to the list of unemployed MBAs. The results of your CAT exams determine the institute where you can pursue the MBA program. It is a two-year program on completion of which you can easily get the job in the financial service sector.

Hi, There are plenty of professional courses available for you to choose from. For commerce students, one of the easiest things to do is go for B.Com then M.Com and then maybe PhD or professor. There's also an option to go for CA, CS, CMA and at times LLB . The mainstay of commerce students for years now. You also have the option of lesser known courses like FRM, CFA, actuary among others. various job ready certification courses conducted by many institution across the country are also an option worth seeing. If you wanna go for MBA, you can start preparing for CAT. There's this option of going for government jobs and preparing for that. It all depends on what path you wanna take. All the best.
