Answer: It is great to know that you have made a career choice! At the same time I would like to mention that when you do decide on a career, explore all the areas that need to be considered. Are you comfortable with mathematics, as one needs to do accounting in this profession? Are you the type of person who enjoys desk job? What made you zero on this choice, ask yourself whether you have the aptitude, interest, personality for it and do an in-depth study of yourself-what is it that you want from a career, why do you want to pursue it and also keep other options open. Maybe you have decided to take up commerce in +2 and you are not aware of other options available. So right now EXPLORE YOURSELF AND THE WORLD OF WORK!
