Is accounting a good major?

accounting is good, but its tough. Its not mathy, its “process-y”. thats the best way i can describe it. its a bunch of processes and steps that you need to know to do certain things. obviously when dealing with numbers like dollars, machine hours, whatever the case may be, theres math, but dont think of it as like calculus stuff. its mostly adding/subtracting and multiplying/dividing.

but if any math or science majors tell you business classes are a joke (which is probably true for the softer ones like management), have them do some job costing and see what they think.
