LA Recording School?

If so, my friend goes there: Alan Hokom. He said he is one of the few people that is there to record/produce rock music, so maybe you know of him.


To the OP, get into film production, it owns.

Yeah I never took it, all I have heard is its the worst class ever. Avoid at all costs, even if it means you need to kill.

[swimstarguy]

Yeah...
Give engineering classes a try. If you think accounting classes are hard or tedious you've obviously never tried to calculate the compression or tension in every freaking truss on some random roof with crap strewn across it in no specific order.

What do you do in the class and in the real world for accounting?

[Mike325]

You keep record of all the spending and income of a buisness. You need to make ballance sheets, statements of retained earings and shit like that. The thing is is that it has to ballance out. So if you added $100 into retained earnings, it has to come up somewhere else too. Not sure where because I was the suxorz at it.

I worked in it for a year... that was more than enough. If you get to estate planning, that is actually pretty cool.

I'm not in my senior year. Year 2, out of 5. -_- This crap blows. They make it hard on purpose. I'd take accounting over this in a heartbeat.

accounting in the work place is not as bad as the classes to learn the concepts. It only sounds hard. You're good when you have the basics down. Everything is done with software these days, so its easy. Check out accountingcoach.com for the basics.

I'm a finance major, the accounting classes I took were all extremely boring and tedious, but absolutely necessary.

[Stu]

Basic Financial Accounting classes are a joke. You need to learn fundamental characteristics of a chart of accounts, what transactions affect what, and how to prepare SIMPLE versions of financial statements. It shouldn't require much brainpower, no more than a lowlevel Statistics, Economics, etc. class. Intermediate and upper level classes, on the other hand, are quite a bit more difficult once you get into the nitty-gritty of it.

I'm in my senior year getting my accounting degree at UW. Believe me, if you are hating your first class the last 3 years of it will blow. I am so sick of this crap. At least the early stuff was logical. Good thing I'm not going to be an accountant.
