AOA Friends,
Well i guess there is no need for you to pound over this topic the primary thing is that you want to become a Chartered Accountant and ACCA is the sold certificate to be one.
Please remember one thing there is no such thing as a short cut when it comes to acquire a professional qualification, every course need time and concentration.
In my point of View, if we talk about ACCA.
1)Its a Globally recognize certification.
2)You will get BSC in Applied Accounting (HONS) DEGREE.
3)You will get 11 papers Exemption in CIMA (IF you are full ACCA qualified)
What more you want getting so many things in one shot.So my advice to you is go for ACCA fist and then the world is open you can further advance you studies by doing CIMA,CIA,CFSA & MBA(exemptions are available in all of them in some manner) there is no need to get the double CA certification.
But then again the final decision is yours.
