Answer 1 :
You will need to take a degree course in something like accountancy before you can become an accountant. With those grades you would certainly get onto a degree course at university
Answer 2 :
Yes- please post better questions.

How do you Become an Accountant? (I'm 16)?

How do you Become an Accountant? (I'm 16)?
Obviously i don't want to become an accountant at this age (just to make that clear lol) I have a few questions about Accountancy.... I'm really interested in the whole idea of the business and finance sector and i think accountancy is an appropriate job choice for the future... However, as i'm only 16 i've just picked my A Levels to study this september and i've chosen: IFS (Institue of Financial Services Qualification), Double Applied Business, History & Physcology However, my boyfriend wants to be accoutnant also and has been doing an AAT course at college (he is 17) How would i go about doing all these Accounting qualifications if i'm going to be in full time education next year at sixth form Also how do you get into accounting? I'm not sure if i want to go to university yet and if you're going to do accounting at uni i'm sure you need Maths A Level, and i'm not amazing at maths (accounting uses calcultors alot of the time which is useful for me) I'm sorry it's long, but can anyone give me some advice into getting into accounting because as i'm getting older i need to think about my job choices!

Answer 1 :
You're 16 so why are you so worried right now??!!! MOST kids your age don't know what to do the next day!! Don't know what advanced courses are "necessary" since EACH state is different! Check with some of your local area colleges online course descriptions for the undergraduate accounting courses to give you some ideas of the type of courses you may be taking as an accounting major!! Each school may list different names for the courses but the background behind each course is almost identical since it's standardized across the nation! Believe it or not, you do NOT need to be a math wiz though some portions of the certain accounting classes may require you to know Statistics. The basic math of addition, subtraction, division and multiplication is fine! It's really a matter of Logic on how to organize things hence you need to know how to "account for items". Do you want accounting or finance as they are both different (though finance REALLY do have its roots in accounting)?? Good luck!
Answer 2 :
you need to be good at figures, although accounting needs mostly simple math (plus, minus, multiple and divide) major accounting at university to finish all the required accounting courses for the professional accounting body of your country, and then pass their professional accounting exam

Answer 1 :
Yes, of course you can. A friend of mine only got Cs at A Level, but did very well at uni. He's now a chartered accountant. Have a look on www.ucas.ac.uk for accountancy degrees and that will let you know the grades you need to get onto the courses.
Answer 2 :
To be honest, if your only getting those results in GCSE the chances of AAAA are slim :( i would maybe do something similar to an apprenticeship
Answer 3 :
Lol if you got AAAA at A level no university in the country would care what you got for GCSE (as long as it's more than 5 C's!). A level grades vary a bit by university, but I don't think any will be higher than Bristol's which are AAA-AAB. That's reeeeeeally high actually. Universities do look at your GCSE grades when making a decision but if you can convince your teachers in your AS year that you can get the A/B grades in their subject then that should sway the university. Accountancy is one of those things that doesn't necessarily need a degree education. A friend of mine is a fully qualified accountant and she did it through an apprenticeship after her A levels.
Answer 4 :
You might want to do a course in book-keeping instead of college prep at this time. After a few years of maturity, you could go back to night business college and major in accounting if that is what you really want. Your grades aren't very good at this time. Do you want this major because your parents have it in their heads that you should be an accountant? Follow your own dreams! When you find what YOU really want, your grades will go up accordingly. good luck.
