Youall be Jealous of Me

Im here at the Library getting ready for finals next week. Boy what fun!!!! Oh well, after next Thursday, I will have a month off from school and get a chance to make some money$$$ The only thing I will miss is the awsome T3 connection!!!!!!!

Well better go so the Geology and History can be taking care of. (all of witch does no good in my accounting/finance career) I guess their trying to make well rounded students.

Good Luck with the finals, PhillipSVT.

If you go into public accounting you never know what kind of business you will come across. Having a general idea about a company's business helps when you are trying to sort out there books. So, at least pay a little attention during the general education classes. You never know when you might need the info.

Just my 2 cents (audited) worth of experience.

Thumbs up Congratulations!

I'll never forget Graduation day. It was the end of the best nine years of my life. And even though it was only an associates, I knew that going full time was the best thing I did for myself.

Rauol,

What did you get your Associates in?....time management?

I agree with what was stated earlier. You never know what you will doing or where you will be working. I am glad that I paid attention in my business and accounting classes even though I am and engineer. I have used a lot of what I learned in college lately.

If you become an accountant for an engineering firm it would help to have a little knowledge as to what they do so pay attention in science classes.

I pay attention and do good in the classes, It's just not the funnest thing, like history for example, I have had around 9 years of it allready, kinda old. The other classes are neat to learn about things you have seen on vacation and such. I will probley run my own business, so I kinda know what is more important than other things.

The university where I got my engineering degree had a policy that if you had a good enough average (like 94%) or so going into the final, you didn't have to take it. For 4 years, that was my goal, no finals. In the end I only had to take 2 finals throughout the full 4 years (damn english and Pascal courses). Granted I probably spent more time studying total but overall I ended up better off and no one test dominated the grade (finals can be as much as 30% of a grade).

Oh well, glad I don't have to worry about that, and haven't for quite a few years.

Smile ponysix8,

allow me to put my nine years towards an Associates degree to use.

"plenty of time to cram" is an oxymoron.
