Words of wisdom
My core specialisms are financial accounting/reporting and financial systems. In these subjects, practice is everything. You can’t learn financial accounting and reporting properly by just attending lectures and reading books. The only way to get a really good understanding of the subject is to do lots and lots of question practice.
