A CFA course needs less time to complete than a CA course. CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) and CA (Chartered Accountant) are both trending in the corporate and finance sector, especially in India. CA course has more relevance and wider scope than CFA although CFA are in great demand these days.

Few years back, I was in same scenario. After researching a lot what I understood was both CFA US and CA have his pros and cons. CFA US is little easier as compared to CA in India. It is also less time-taking. If you're thinking to settle abroad then go for CFA US otherwise CA but both the degree will give you immense amount of opportunity.

MBA is a broader field than CFA and then again it's your choice if you want to diversify your knowledge or deepen your knowledge in investment management. If you are looking for deepening your knowledge in investment thing only then you can go with CFA and in case you want some diversification in other management aspects as well then you can go with MBA in finance course. And talking about the difficulty level of CA and CFA CA is the toughest course to do. The passing percentage is 1% in CA and 10% in CFA.

Hi, Both are good courses. You not need to be good at Maths but you should be good at accounts because both courses deals with accounts. And according to me FRM is best. But you should choose only when you are comfortable with it.

Honestly, there is no need to prepare for CFA after class 12th. CFA LEVEL 1 is not allowed before the final years of graduation (one of the criteria). Visit the CFA official website for more information. Preparation for CFA Level 1 won't take more than 45 months even if you are weak on basics. You may better your knowledge in finance and its basics by tuning in to financial news, blogs, books, movies, etc. It would pay you back in the long run. Wish you luck, Regards.
