what is involved in an accounting class?

Why not look at the curriculum in the courses offered near you? They should all be online and readily available.

You are not going to find the math work to be challenging. Simple arithmetic and very basic algebra. If you know what to do with a transaction, how to do it is a snap.

I am terrible at Math. But I am very organized. I made As in Accounting.

I have no idea whats involved in accounting,but Ive had lunch with lots of accountants and most of them I found to be not as dull as youd expect.

One female accountant collects Hummels, and shes married to another accountant (their lives must be a social whirl)

My accountant tells me what my salary is each year. Hes a powerful influence on everything I do , money wise.

Well, right. An aggressive accountant is one that looks at your shoes.

There is not much Math in accounting, you just need to know how to balance things. However, there are many accounting rules you would have to learn. I think what you will learn is bookkeeping more than the broader "accounting" to keep the books for your business.

Accountants are not at all dull the way they used to be portrayed, and they have to keep ahead with all the new technological and commercial advances in order to advise their clients, and that is quite a challenge.

This may give you a good idea as to what is involved. If you are starting your own business. it is VERY wise for you to understand accounting principles, even if you hire an independent accountant to do your books.

I mean i have never recieved a letter grade lower than an "C"- but bare in mind i just went back to school as an older student,but i new the time was righth for me to flurish in life again,because i have given up in the past and dont plan on stopping now.I have have custody of my son and my main goal is to be the best parent i can and provide for him. bussiness adminastation is my career selection of choice,becaus i have goals and believe in myself that soon I can have my owned bussiness and run it effectively and profit so i can have the finances behind me and support me and my son,but its hard,but I know i can make with my education. I have talk with my advisor at school and he tells me that I'm doing find but can do better so i can get a least my associate degree and tranfer,but i get kind of chocke up when it comes to any type of math.
