Hi Avinash, interesting question and I am sure you have asked the question because there is some goal plan of your career and you wish to achieve it accordingly.Sounds great and interesting.

But no idea why are the Astro details mentioned. If its only for me to know your age, then ok, but if you are planning a career based on astro and thinking time is running out, then you are on the wrong path and wrong career choice.
Either change the thinking of age and passing out or change your career.
The reason I am saying you to change your career is because there is no definite time saying CA would be over in juts 3 years or 5 years.

CA is a course which is purely based on your ability and confidence and your analytical ability and your ability to compete under stress. Though knowing all your concepts, you don't know what would be asked during the examination. So even the best to best student, has faced failures on the way to becoming a CA.
Some of them have never given up, so despite many attempts have ultimately achieved their goal, whereas few of them have attempted but unfortunately they have been not able to clear, but have at least tried. These students are working in the financial sector and are working as a CA junior level, because that is what their dreams are.

There are some students who have cleared their CA, but unfortunately their knowledge is just theoretical, and hence have failed miserably in job scenarios.You need to decide which category you fit into from the above mentioned students.
Chartered Accountant

There are levels you need to clear in CA examinations.

  • 1st is CPT, which you would have to clear with or along with your 12th. Many students clear this round at first attempt, since this checks just your basic concepts.
  • Next is IPCC. Here also majority of students clear. Though depends on the understanding level of the student. Here comes the level of internships, which earlier was for 6 months to a year. But now has increased to almost a 3 years span.
Please note that these internships now play a vital role. You have to submit written analysis of what you have learnt and projects undertaken during the course. So search a good company or a CA institute that gives you the required exposure
  • The last stage is the final CA, this is a place where majority students falls back. Major failures are seen at this level. A proper exposure is a must to clear this stage.
But in the meanwhile please do not forget your Graduation degree, which is the most essential degree along with the CA certificate.

Generally to prepare for CA one needs to put in a maximum of 7--10 hours of preparation or study time. Hence students prefer to opt for commerce stream than science.So make your choice accordingly.

Majorly do not focus on your age and other astro details. Just focus on your ability and any course will require a " Do or die " attitude to be successful.

Wish you good luck..

Dear Aspirant,

Thanks for approaching us at CareerGuide.

When will you be able to complete CA entirely depends on your sincerity, dedication and efforts you put in studying the course subjects.

Generally, if you clear all the groups in first attempt, it would take 4 years to complete the CA course. You are struggling in the examination, does not mean that you wont become a CA or don't have the potential to become a CA. Failures do come for many, I would suggest that be at it determined and focused and you will clear the exams.

As far as your concern whether this course will be right fro you or not, then I would suggest you to undergo a Online Psychometric Test from CareerGuide which will help you understand yourself in respect of your strengths, weaknesses, emotional quotient, etc. and will exactly tell you which course / stream is suited for you.

Best wishes,
