Is Accounting hard?

Hey, I'm starting A-Levels next year, I want to know views from people who do Accounting (AQA) and how they find it, I am trying to know what it's like because I want to be an accountant when I'm older, and maybe even chartered if I can manage? :smile::smile::smile::smile:

I absolutely loved it and didn't find it too hard really. I found it a really good grounding for my degree and work!

I completed a level accounting recently and would say it was enjoyable. Its just like any other subject, learn and understand the content rather then memorising it.
Easily my most enjoyable A level.

So does Wenger - the bugger never buys a soul yet always "expresses his interest"...

Taling about Arsenal and Accounting, if you look at its annual report P&L, Arsenal is one of the few football clubs with a operational surplus. Prudence is the name of the game, no big spender. Buy them cheap and sell them high could be Wenger's motto.

No, can't compete with Madrid, PSG, MCity and Chelsea. It is a financial arms race unless UEFA's Financial Fair Play rule is properly implemented.

Does this mean that you're an accountant?
If so, how are you finding it?
