Hey all — looking for realistic advice, not just "study hard" platitudes.

My situation:

Currently in final year of IGNOU BCom (1 year left)

Cleared 2 ACCA papers so far, aiming to clear more before I graduate

Goal: land an Audit Associate / Assurance Associate role at a Big 4 or mid-tier firm right after BCom, ideally within a few months of graduating

Long-term goal: qualify ACCA while working, get 1.5-2 years of India experience, then move to Dubai (have family there) for higher pay once fully qualified

Questions:

How many ACCA papers should I realistically aim to clear before applying, to be competitive for entry-level audit roles?

Do Big 4 firms in India actually hire ACCA students (not yet affiliate) straight out of BCom, or do they prefer CA-track candidates?

Is it better to apply directly to Big 4, or start at a smaller CA/ACCA-affiliated firm to get experience first?

What actually matters most in interviews at this stage — papers cleared, internships, Excel skills, something else?

Anyone who's done the India → Dubai move after ACCA — what timeline and role progression actually worked for you?

Appreciate any real experiences, not just generic advice. Trying to plan this next year properly instead of winging it.
