which is more effective FIA or CAT ?

[arhama_saeed]

can sumone give me details on FIA????.. im planing to do that

[m.hassan]

Cat papers-10 Timeperiod-1.5 years
Fia papers-3 Timeperiod-6 months
I have recently given matric paperz nd visited cfe(lahore) about a month ago.
Fia is a branch of cat the middle three papers of cat are called collectivly fia nd a person passing fia is eligible for acca exams.
they told me that if a student has no accounting background .Then we recommend him to start from cat .but instead of giving whole 10 papers
he will give only 7 papers.first 4 papers of cat nd then fia papers(3).Only 2 students of fia(particularly) passed this semester from cfe.so thas why they reccomnd to give first four papers too instead of jumping to the middle ones.
