-- Posted by xfactor89x at 1:15 pm on April 15, 2008 Ok well I just registered for courses for the fall 2008 semester. I will be taking the following 3 classes: Principles of Accounting II Accounting Information Systems Microeconomics I AM an accounting major as u can see lol. Well, I was just wondering, how hard are these classes (If you've taken them)??? If you haven't taken all of them then you can just describe the ones that you took. I really just want to know what to expect so I won't feel overwhelmed when the semester starts. and this is COLLEGE obviously, so no high school. Thanx! -- Posted by MiNNiCK at 1:16 pm on April 15, 2008 I failed my Microeconomics class -- Posted by Joep0113 at 1:16 pm on April 15, 2008 i could handle the Microeconomics.....however the other2 would kick my ass -- Posted by xfactor89x at 1:17 pm on April 15, 2008 lol thanx but I was looking for a bit more of a description if possible -- Posted by Kankalicious at 1:18 pm on April 15, 2008 Quote: from xfactor89x at 1:17 pm on April 15, 2008 lol thanx but I was looking for a bit more of a description if possible Every class is different wherever it is taught... -- Posted by dude101 at 1:19 pm on April 15, 2008 my principles teacher sucked so thats why it was hard for me -- Posted by xfactor89x at 1:19 pm on April 15, 2008 Well I'm sure every class has its similarites, like every class most likely teaches the same material. -- Posted by barnabas at 1:29 pm on April 15, 2008 I am not a business major, but taking 3 classes in your major seems rough. Are those the only classes you are taking? are you planning on working or anything else? do you know anyone at your school you can talk to? -- Posted by bmxboy at 1:35 pm on April 15, 2008 Principles of Accounting II http://www.wartburg.edu/business/syllabi/AC122.03syl-W07.htm Accounting Information Systems http://www.enotes.com/business-finance-encyclopedia/accounting-information-systems Microeconomics http://www.enotes.com/biz-encyclopedia/macroeconomics enotes is quite good - i havnt done any so thats all i can give you to help -- Posted by xfactor89x at 1:44 pm on April 15, 2008 Quote: from barnabas at 4:29 pm on April 15, 2008 I am not a business major, but taking 3 classes in your major seems rough. Are those the only classes you are taking? are you planning on working or anything else? do you know anyone at your school you can talk to? Talk to about what??? I'm going for an associates degree. Microeconomics isn't a requirement for the degree, but I have to take a history/economics class so I chose microeconomics. I figured an accounting major should take at least 1 economics class. -- Posted by PimpMyHoes at 4:36 pm on April 15, 2008 depends on the school and the professor. and you of course... some people are better at some subjects than others. -- Posted by jiminic2 at 4:48 pm on April 15, 2008 Accounting II is about cost accounting, sometimes called management accounting.  It's a bit different than financial accounting in that you learn the flow of manufacturing like job costing, standard costs, raw materials, finished goods and so on.  The accounting is mainly for each step of the way from raw materials inventory to finished goods to the sale. Accounting information systems I believe is about using computers for accounting flow from input to output. Microeconomics has its own vocabulary but centers on the insides of the market as opposed to the market in general (Macroeconomics) Hope this helps. -- Posted by Rovin at 8:43 am on April 26, 2008 BS Nursing - Toxicating and stressful. -- Posted by jamescoleman at 5:50 am on May 5, 2008 every class and teacher is different. unless someone here has had the teachers that your about to get then....
