When I took my first intermediate accounting class, I did not do well in the midterm. I was overwhelmed by my grades and even thought about giving up majoring in accountancy. I instantly decided to talk with my professor and asked his suggestions to get through this class. Based on my professor’s advice, I spent extra hours reviewing intraday material after class. I read the textbook and also did the practice questions besides the homework. In addition, I set up a study group to learn with classmates in the weekend. It was an effective way, because I can query my doubts and also telling the questions what I already understand to other classmates. Working in a group provided me the best opportunity to observe others’ experience and strengths.
