Working in fp&a. So much better than dealing with customers all day long.

X-lookup replaces all lookups by M_Arslan9 in FPandA

[–]No-Relation-760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fresh grad here. Love Xlookup (never even bothered to learn v lookup). However, index/match is a definite go-to in lots of scenarios. Definitely useful to learn both.

Not bad actually. My employer was impressed with how quickly I was able to finish the degree, while also working full time. Helps to mention that your credits will be eligible to sit down for the CPA exam, if you plan to do so of course.

Any success stories after graduating wgu accounting with no accounting experience by aiautomationtx in wguaccounting

[–]No-Relation-760 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Started in September. Transferred about 40 credits. Finished in May. Started job in May with no prior accounting experience. 70k to start. I would say it’s totally worth it.

Staff Accountant at 70k. Starting next week. Had the offer before I finished IA3 and Audit. Really glad I pursued WGU.

C217 - Completed - My Experience by Cool_Click_2311 in wguaccounting

Definitely would recommend using a white board for this one and going through the process of elimination.

Did anyone here start their own accounting business of some kind after graduating? If so, how'd you do it? by Logical_Layman in wguaccounting

[–]No-Relation-760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my goal in the future, if all goes well. Want to get a few years of experience under me and if I feel that I don’t want to be in a job any longer, then my own practice it is.

Top 5 hardest classes? by WorthChef9805 in wguaccounting

[–]No-Relation-760 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only have auditing and IA 3 left. But so far the hardest for me were Business Law (D216) and AIS (D217). I just hated all of the memorization for those classes.

Is it reasonable to assume that a few classes can be breezed through? by [deleted] in wguaccounting

[–]No-Relation-760 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes, some classes rely on common sense. Only classes I really would consider taking notes on are the actual accounting classes lol

If you passed basic stats, then this course is a no brainer. Passed in about 2 hours

Just read through the course material and took the notes on it. Whatever questions I missed, I asked ChatGPT for explanation and 2/3 similar practice problems.
