<p>So back t the OP’s question, does acct get interesting once you’ve trudge thru the course work and are applying it in practice? Does one only do it for security/paycheck or because they actually enjoy it? If his long term goal is to be a lawyer and accounting is dragging him down would it not perhaps be better to find something he finds more interesting and therefore be more motivating to work harder at and perhaps get better grades? 40+++ hrs a week x a lifetime is a longtime to bored.</p>
