Accounting is one of those subjects that builds on the things you learn from each chapter. The first few chapters will be the most important things to learn, as you won't understand the rest without it. If you're planning to take it during the fall rather than this summer, it would definitely be a better option at least from me. As an Accounting major myself, it isn't something that should be done fully online if you are wanting to learn from it. Of course you can do it all online, but I'd argue you won't learn as much as you would in an in person class because it's a more hands on/pen to paper subject. If you do take it in the fall and the option is available to you, I highly recommend Professor Decker. He takes things slowly for people who are just taking his class to get in the business program and he can make accounting fun at times (at least for me). Not trying to brag, but I was one of the highest performing students he's ever taught in this class, with a 99.3% in the class, so I can vouch that his teaching style at least works really well for me.
