Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Official TSR Accounting and Finance Society

Welcome to the TSR Accounting and Finance Society! :grin:

Since there isn't currently a society on TSR for Accounting students, I thought it would be a good idea to create one.

Whether you're currently studying, interested in studying or have studied Accounting and Finance or a Finance related degree, this is the society for you. Here you can discuss how your course is going, revision tips, any problems, advice for other students/those applying/graduates, anything accounting/finance related etc.

Join here. :h:

Yay for Accountancy students and accounty people in general. We know the world will stop without us whatever anyone else thinks :p:

ESPECIALLY those pesky 'economists'.

Yeah, it's mental, can't believe I'm here! Lots of work, but I've got some exemptions from the accounting modules (I don't know how that works either :p:

) so I can concentrate on the mathsy stuff that I'm crap at :biggrin:

It's great though, I think I made the right decision.

Ah, that's great! :h:

Did you take Auditing by any chance? I hear that module is supposed to be quite difficult.

Oooh Accounting and Finance, I'm doing that!! :biggrin:

I have found that probably less than 3% of the people on my course have actually done A level Accounting, how weird is that? XD

Wow only 3%! I've done Accounting A-level & im doing AAT Level 3 (you can never be too prepared :smile:

). Is Accounting mostly coursework at uni? Also what universities did everyone go to?
Sorry for all the questions!

Yeah indeed I am. Finding a lot of it quite easy. I also did A level Business Studies which is coming in very handy right now too :smile:

:yep:

No problem! I thought a society was very much needed for us accountants :p:

I'd say a combination of coursework and exams but I think the level of coursework would probably depend on the University. (Particularly after you graduate, if you want to become a qualified accountant, Accounting is mainly exam based).

I didn't do A-level Accounting :puppyeyes:

And Accounting by nature is more examinations unfortunately, which sucks for me :frown:

Hello, thanks for the invite!
I did A Level Accounting, it's really coming in handy. Actually, all subjects I did at A Level have helped me a lot so far.
I'm still just a first year btw :tongue:
