Ok so I have been studying and doing my Straighterline accounting courses and I finally got around to taking a couple of the SL tests. First of all - my disclaimer: I LOVE SL so far. The format is enjoyable and seems to match my learning style pretty well, and you can't beat the price. The problem is that I have discovered that I hate accounting. HATE HATE HATE accounting. Even with SL's very enjoyable format, I got a 102/150 on my first test and a 108/150 on the second. *yikes* Exactly a 70% average!!
I just changed my major to business, so there's no getting out of this. What will I do if I fail SL's accounting? Accounting is a pre-req to the master's program that I really think sounds exciting, so if I can't do this, my very awesome bilingual MBA is totally out of the question.
Maybe I'll learn enough at SL to be able to CLEP out of financial accounting... but then I'll still need managerial accounting for the MBA program.
Should I change my major to something that suits my interests more? Is there another test option for managerial accounting? Any other thoughts?
Thanks as always
