  • BACHELORS OF COMMERCE (B.COM)

This is a general degree course that spans over a period of 3 years that you can pursue after completing your 12th with commerce. A normal B.com degree proves quite handy even if you are pursuing any of the professional courses. It is always advised that you complete your graduation and then go for higher education like MBA. You can take BBA as a full-time course or a correspondence course depending on your choice. It is beneficial for students to take it as a correspondence course if they are pursuing any professional courses like CA or CS.

Top courses that students choose after B.COM are:

Chartered accountant (CA) One of the most common careers that cross every commerce student’s mind is CA. CA exams are conducted by Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAI) and students are required to clear 3 Examinations over the period of time that are CPT, IPCC and Final CA. Since you are done with your graduation, you are eligible to directly appear for IPCC which consists of two groups. After clearing one of the groups, a student is required to register for articles with experienced CA’s for a period of two and a half years.
