what college you go to? and whats your accounting class?
 
Accounting isn't a subject you can expect to ace without studying. Just because you have open books and notes doesnt guaranteed you a good grade. Work andstudy hard and you'll pull it off.
 
^^^ not true i passed with a A and a A+ in my accounting classes without opening the book. i did do the homework that was required by the professor though butit was all done online and theres this check work thing that basically gives you all the answers,so that was a waste of time.

i go to kingsborough cc. theres nothign wrong with cc's at all.
 
pretty much every open book test i had in college was a trap, its just a reason for the prof to make it EXTRA hard (nh)

if they give the class the option, then u know its a trap

It really depends on the person. Obviously this man needs to study like most people to get an A.
 
I got my first exam on tuesday. I'm about to study up, basically the intro from what I grasp is Assets=Liabilities+Owners Equity. Debits right side,Credits left side. Journal Entries, T accounts, ledgers, and accruals and deferrals.

this is EXACTLY what the test was on...and i was killing every question, walked out thinking i got atleast a 90
 
Assets-Libalities=Equity Now that like no other. Balancing enteries. Debits and Credits always have to balance doesn't neccesarily have to be 1 and 1.Remember your accounts. Journal enteries you just got to know what increases or decreases. Assets get increased with a debit. Decreased with a credit.Libalities get increased with a credit and decreased with a debit. Holla at me if you need any help during the semester. Hopefully I'm alive cause thisadvanced accounting corporate taxation and taxation research courses are already kicking my +$%

WHAT?! my proff is saying that DEBIT on the LEFT side... and CREDIT on the RIGHT side.. doesn't make that much of a difference does it tho?

and OP, which community college are you at? cuz i'm at one too haha. same exact boat as you.
 
what about accounts payable and accounts receivables?

you actually did good on your first exam. the chapter on debits and credits usually confuses people and after the first exam alot of people were lost in myclass.
