Accounting Has Been A Hard Major

I took an accounting class "for fun" in my senior year of high school. It was very interesting to me. We would have to do group projects where we would create a company and figure out how much everything would cost. We would use PowerPoint slides and present our company to the class. In this accounting class was the first time I had ever used the terms debit and credit. Most assignments that we did for this class were by hand in our workbook. I remember one time my teacher said "If any of you decide to pursue an accounting degree, you will always have a job, and you will most likely make a lot of money." This is why I chose my major. In my senior year of highschool, if I would have known how much work this accounting college major would entail, I probably would have been turned off by it.

I can't imagine pursuing an accounting degree- I hate math! I think that any major you choose is going to be difficult though, if it was easy then everyone would do it! You are almost done though, hang in there! :)
