Thank you comment icon Hi Ena. What is a course base? I'm not familiar with that phrase. Are you asking about whether or not you can take courses in accounting? Jared Chung, Admin
Thank you comment icon I think whether it has own course structure. Ena

Evelyn’s Answer

Hi Ena
My path has been the science route, until I did my MBA. As with other programs - Associate degree, Bachelor degree, or other certifications-- there is a base set of courses to take and then specialty courses to support your career field. The program for the MBA did include specific specialty courses in Accounting which were much different than finance or economics. Accounting courses were more aligned to the specific presentation and tracking of finances and budgets, as well as the presentation of a company's wealth over time. There was a lot of work with spreadsheets!

Vincent’s Answer

Hi Ena,


Do not worry. A lot of people are having a bad times on their first courses of accounting.


Accounting needs a lot of effort to understand its logic. Once you get the logic, you will be good into it. It is not complicated.


There are effectively a lot of free ressources on the net to help you understand the logic.


Good luck! Work hard and you'll get it :)

Simeon’s Answer

If you're worried about how well you'll do in accounting, I'll say that once you learn a lot of the basics and overall structure of accounting, it can be very easy to hold on to a lot of what is happening in the course. If you get confused, reach out to the professor. Most professors I knew were very accommodating to students who sought them out seeking better understanding. They'll usually work with you to help you pass.
