Does doing CA from India help in career progression into IB in USA
Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum (so please ignore my mistakes, thanks).
So currently I am pursuing Chartered Accountancy course in India, and I aim to get into IB on Wall Street.
This is a professional degree and I am not pursuing a proper undergrad in any background.
Hence, I am looking for your kind suggestions regarding what should I do post my CA?
Try to get into Ivy League / Try to get into top B schools (IIM A,B,C) in India / Or getting a job in IB post only CA is possible.
Please help in any way possible.
Thank you

You’re living in a bubble, bro. Life is going to hit you so hard. Brace yourself.
Sir, I am aware that getting into IB anywhere is not a piece of cake, if it was the case then I wouldn't be asking experts like you for advise.
I am ready to work hard, post my CA too, and will try to get into some Investment banking company or firm during my industrial training.
I just wanted to know if is useful or I should get ACCA or CFA?
And after doing this, is it possible for me to get into IVY league?
Just for context, getting a CA in India is monumentally harder than in North America. Think it's a ~15% pass rate. But no, that's not going to help you tbh. Your best bet is to get into a US undergrad or MBA from a top 15 program. Even then, the uphill battle to get permanent work authorization will impact your chances. The actual best approach is to get your OPT and marry an American for your green card within the OPT timeframe.
