The Race Against Yourself – Gareth Griffiths Pt2

Once more, we are joined by Gareth Griffiths, Associate at PwC, MCom in Taxation, and UP alumnus having graduated with distinction in all years of his studies. He also placed first in the country in the SAICA ITC of 2024.

We chat about learning to run the race against you and no one else on the road to CA(SA).

We also chat about:

  • His CTA experience and how he placed amongst the top in his class;
  • Why less is more in CTA;
  • The importance of practicing analytically and performing intuitively;
  • Competition’s role in his academic success, and more.

Enjoy!

About the Podcast

The Road to CA Podcast
Many of us hope and believe that "it will end in CA(SA)". However, we forget that the destination is only the tip of the iceberg; and that the journey is an integral part of the dream.

This journey is what differentiates us, it is what defines us, and it is what binds us.

It is what transforms us into CAs(SA).

But what lies on the trail to the summit of CA(SA)? Undoubtedly, inspiring stories, heartfelt passion, and trailblazing perspectives. There is still so much more to showcase and uncover...

Hence, this is an exploration of the mountainous and arduous path towards CA(SA).

This is The Road to CA.
