85. ALUMNI SPEAK Vivek Patel (IPCC May’11) “I was very happy to hear that MTC has tied up with AU. At a point of time, I was unable to decide that I should give both the groups because of the tight schedule of the whole routine. And then the college exam will leave me with no time to study for IPCC in March. But, after I joined AU, then I had a lot of time and I was able to appear for both the groups. It gave me the most important thing : ‘TIME’. I was confident and was prepared for the exams. I am thankful to MT for such a program.” Bhhavya Gogri (IPCC May’11) “If C.A. is your ultimate goal, joining AU B.Com. is the perfect path to clear it. It will let you concentrate 100% towards C.A.”

Because of the simple nature of the syllabus and student friendly pattern of question papers, we had to put practically no efforts.” “If a student has the determination and passion to succeed C.A. in the first attempt itself, then it is most advisable to join AU B.Com.
