Distance/Correspondence

Hi,
The correspondence mode of study is ideal for candidates who for some reason are not able to attend regular classes. The distance education mode of study is generally in the annual system of education and grants student a maximum period of 5 years to complete all the requirements of the curriculum. IGNOU, New Delhi is very well known for providing distance education courses in a lot of subjects. Apart from Indira Gandhi National Open University, some other institutes which offer M.A. Sociology in distance mode are:
Center for Distance and Open Learning, Jamia Millia Islamia University
School of Open Learning, University of Delhi
Annamalai University
Karnataka State Open University
Nalanda Open University
Hope this helps.

The question is very interesting. One can pursue M.Com degree via regular mode and also through correspondence mode. Benefits of doing M.Com through regular course:-
The student who does M.Com as a regular course will get an opportunity to attend class room sessions. They will get more exposure to practical sessions as well. They will get proper guidance under experienced teachers or faculty members that will help them to be thorough with the subjects covered in course curriculum. Moreover, they will interact with the class mates that will help them refresh their mind which helps them to get along with the studies. Benefits of doing M.Com through correspondence course:-
For students who have difficulty in attending regular classes, they can pursue their degree through correspondence only. The students with family constraints or those who are working and wish to pursue academic degree M.Com can fulfill their wish by doing the degree through correspondence mode. Students can save the time and money on transportation and they can undergo this course sitting in their homes. There will be options to access the class notes via post or else through online mode as well. The persons who are presently working need not loose their job for doing this degree. Finally it is advisable for a student to do M.Com through correspondence mode only if he has work experience. Doing M.Com through regular mode is better for a candidate who has no work experience. For a fresher to seek job in reputed firms, the degree earned through regular mode is more advantageous. Best of luck.

It's always best to go for a regular degree (as compared to a correspondence course) whenever the option is available. Let's look at your dilemma in two parts for a holistic reasoning: (I) Whether to opt for getting a Bachelor's degree at all? (ii) Regular vs. Correspondence
Even though one can do without opting for a Bachelors at all if one is pursuing CA I suggest one should still obtain the degree for three reasons -
1. There is no guarantee one will clear all the CA exams in the first attempt (though I hope you do). You won't have any degree against your name to speak of till then. To me, that's a scary thought.
2. Till one doesn't clear all the exams, one's chances of employment decrease in a lot of places. Most places, actually, even if you've cleared IPCC.
3. You won't be able to go for higher studies because you are not the equivalent of a graduate till you clear your Finals. Now, let's look at the dilemma of a Regular vs. Correspondence course -
Academically, in a correspondence course, you will: (a) Not have direct contact with any college faculty. Even if you take private tuition, it's not the same as going to a college and studying under a professor.
