Answer 1 :
Become a member of a reconginsed accountancy body. I recommend ACCA due to ease of study, flexbility of qualification and qualitity of syllabus. Also CIMA and ICAEW are available. Look them all up online. Join as a student and start tudying immediately. You can also get exemptions due to your degree, enquire to make sure you get the exemption asap. You do not have to go straight into Public Practice, you could go into Private industry (which pays generally higher). Public Pratice will usually only take the ebst quality students, though you might be able to find a good local firm to train you. Look them up on ACCA website or in your Yellow Pages.
