SL Accounting I
#1
I'm taking this class as we speak, and i'm finding it extremely hard, i'm up the the 3rd (Midterm Exam) now.

Does it get better? Maybe I shouldve went with Clep instead. :nopity:

No it does not get better. Their tests even though they are multiple choice are hard and at times confusing. Maybe you should give it a rest for a day or two and then come back to it.

Is there allot of math involved in the next tests or is it more testing you on terms and meanings etc, the math questions are more upfront and easier, the terms not so much. :ack:

My husband said that it is about the same throughout. An even mix of problems and terms/meanings. He took that course more recently.

I just completed SL Accounting 1 a few days ago with an 'A' by God's grace (95 percent.). Don't worry, the exams certainly don't get harder. I feel like the rest of the exams are palpably easier than the midterm. Not significantly, but I feel that they are measurably easier: just in my opinion. Others may feel differently.

Take courage! You're already in the home run. Things won't get any harder at all. If anything, things should get a little bit easier, if your exams are like the ones I just went through!

you were absolutely right, Exam 3 and 4 were easier than the first two.

I found these tests very easy since you have the book at your disposal. I had studied financial accounting for two weeks prior to doing sl.com and was unsure if I could pass the clep test and that's why i did sl.com instead. At least one third of the questions can be answered by reading the glossary or using the index. The calculations in accounting are simple by math standards but you do have to know what changes when a company issues stock for example. This is all in the book so when taking the tests be sure to find the same type of question in the book and use it as an example.

How long did it take you to finish the course, i might of rushed through it, i started may 3rd finished may 18th and got a 80%, took me a week and a half to get through exam 1 and 2 and midterm then about 3 days to go through exam 3 and 4 and final.

I finished Accounting I and II over the course of 5 days during Christmas break. The entire accounting II was finished while at my in-laws house in my spare time.
