How hard is the maths in Accounting and Finance BSc?

So, I was looking over the specification at my uni and it included maths including algebra etc. I didnt do a level maths so i dont know if some of the modules relating to maths will be even more difficult.

Also,
it says that ill have micro and macro economics modules, is this hard ?

Thanks!

Hey!

As an Accounting and Finance major, I can tell you that the maths involved isn’t too overwhelming. Even if you didn’t do A-Level Maths, the course usually covers the basics you need. Plus, there are resources and support available if you need a refresher.
For the micro and macroeconomics modules, the maths is pretty straightforward. It’s more about understanding economic concepts and how they interact rather than doing complex calculations. The graphs and theories might seem tricky at first, but once you get the hang of them, it all starts to make sense.

Hope that helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

Hi,
The math in an Accounting and Finance BSc is generally not as advanced as A-Level maths. If you're comfortable with basic algebra and problem-solving, you should be able to manage. As for micro and macroeconomics, they can be a bit theory-heavy, but they mainly involve understanding economic principles and applying them to real-world situations.
