another fact i wud like to add is most of acca students are willing to work outside Pakistan and they know that having ACCA on their CVs will be more respected than ICAP.
most of the students who join ACCA belongs to second lane in terms of intelligence and past academic results and most of the bright students joins ICAP coz its cheap and more regarded in Pakistan, the reason why second lane students join ACCA is that there isnt any eligibility problem and anyone can join provided he is 21 yrs old so thats why all of the cream goes to ICAP this is another reason why employer prefers ICAP members(same is the case with intermediate colleges), but there are many ACCA students who are at par with qualitative qualified ICAP members.
finally, acca is a qualification which makes u enter any qualification with no. of exemptions thats why v join ACCA(flexible, easy, valuable, relevant, etc) and this is the reason why most of the acca students wish to have another certification after ACCA, and they does this coz they know ACCA will not only provide them no. of exemption but also a mature mind which can make a decision which industry or which area they have to specialise(Audit, tax, finance, others)
