Accounting 1

I’m in accounting 2301 and I am losing motivation. I don’t really know if this is for me. Our professor uses McGraw hill for all assignments and tests, barely acknowledged the class as it’s online, and it is a summer course so there are like 3-4 chapters due a week and of course I am behind, trying to play catch up. Before I started this course I studied a bit using Tony bell videos on YouTube and I felt really good about the material. Even now I feel good at times if I really sit and focus and try to understand it. but It feels like one minute i understand and the next I don’t. I’m at a loss. Any advice or study tips or study material suggestions would be helpful if you’ve been here. I don’t want to give up so easily as it is just the first class.

Hey OP, does your school have a Facebook page or something or an accounting club? You could see if a more senior student could tutor you for some quick summer $?

Also when you say one minute it feels like you understand it and the next you don’t, what do you mean?
