    I found it quite boring to be honest so for me it was difficult. For some people they are natural to it. I would say medium overall.

    If you don't mind me asking, what university did you study at? How's the job prospect after?

    I study at Aston uni. Im studying economics but i did all the core modules in the first year. For accounting there are jobs out there dotted all over the UK. I'd say employment prospects are pretty good. But does depend on experience too.
