I am an accounting graduate and I'm yet to be a chartered accountant. Many of my classmates we graduated together are not chartered too. This is the case of thousands of accounting graduates in Nigeria.

It amazed me when I found out that 70 to 80 percent of ICAN members are not accounting graduates. Many of them had studied course that are not even related to accounting. For instance, I was an undergraduate when a Microbiology student who is also an undergraduate in same institution obtain her ICAN Certificate.

What could be the reason why many accounting graduates are not chartered and non-accounting graduates are obtaining ICAN Certificate?

Your comments will be appreciated.

I think is because some lecturer scared student, especially the chartered

Do you mean lecturers in accounting department scare their students?
I don't think that is unusual in other departments.

I think it seems boring when you keep studying the same course all the time. But this is not applicable to most of Accounting graduate from Olabisi Onabanjo University as most of them has qualified before they graduate

You made a good point there. Studying what you've learnt over again could be boring.

I will carry out research
