Chartered Accountant (India) + Bachelor of Commerce vs Company Secretary + ACCA Certification (UK) + BBA

Hello! I'm 17 and I would love to pursue a career in finance in the future. Since no one in my family has a background in commerce, I really need your help. As the title says, I have to choose between the two options but I don't know what holds more value, is practical, and in more demand. I feel like with CA and BCom I get a deeper understanding of finance but with the other option, I study finance along with management. It doesn't matter what's harder cause I'm willing to work my ass off, I want to know what's a better option. Thank you for taking the time to read this and any input is appreciated!

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
