KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
What are the differences between Engineering and CA/CMA courses?
- We are not referring to top 20% merit students in premier engineering colleges rather we are referring to students pursuing engineering in regular engineering colleges.
- If you believe you can compete with lakhs of students and secure a seat in a top engineering college, then pursuing an engineering course is a good option for you.
- However, instead of spending lakhs of rupees on fees or donations for an Engineering course, pursuing CA/CMA is a much better choice.
