Grammar

graduated exams – graduate exams

It totally have six subjects and each subjects will have one test so I need to pass this test. It is very difficult and this morning I learnt financial management, it is very hard to understand. I listen to the class online and read the book and do some practice questions. Some subjects are difficult but if you spend enough time on it, you can pass it. It’s not so difficult for people who learn accounting at university. I know the basic knowledge about it. Some of my friends went to study accounting like participate in the CPA exams. But, I didn’t suggest them to get a career change, at least to change to accounting because in this industry the competition is very high. Accounting is a stable job and the job is routine and you don’t need to work at night. Sometimes you also need to work overtime but you don’t always work too late.
