I am an Accountany major and definitely I would say that it is better than all the other commerce major. When you graduate as an Accountany and passed the Certified Public Accountant Board Exam, there will be a job waiting for you.. It will be your option, either you work as a private practitioner rendering accounting services, work as a government employee, work in a corporation and get the chance to become a boss oned day, and you have the option to go abroad to work.. Accountancy graduates are actully in demand abroad and it does promise high compensation.. Gud luck to all of us Accountancy students..AJA!!

I think you should go for the course will suit you. If you feel that you can make it in accountancy then why not go on?? Go and pursue your dreams. It may be hard because accountancy is very strict in terms of training than commerce...Just follow what you really want and strive hard for it....
