I’m not certain which specific topics you’re referring to and don’t see the benefit in guessing. I would, however, note that certain barriers to a career in accounting have been recently lowered: the CPA exams have been restructured in a way that many believe is easier, particularly the time limit you have in which to pass them.
Of course that doesn’t help you when you’re in your undergrad accounting program. If you find that your professor and your class materials aren’t presenting topics in a way that you’re grasping, I highly suggest looking up “Farhat Accounting Lectures” on YouTube. His presentations are clear, and he breaks topics into digestible bits that many accounting students and professionals find helpful.
Beyond that, I also recommend forming study groups in your classes. You might find that topics that are clear to you might be difficult for others, and vice versa.
