Hey /adv/. I want to be an accountant. I was wondering what qualifications

>study accounting
>be good at it
>have no problem with a fucking boring job
There you go

It varies country to country, and even state to state. As a general rule of thumb, in the US. you could've sat for the CPA (to become an 'accountant') with any Bachelor's degree. I believe, they tightened the restrictions recently, and now you have to have relevant business experience/internships before sitting for it. best bet is to major in accounting, as it will provide you the best background in knowledge for licensure, although any bachelor's, particularly in business/math, will work

tl;dr get 4 year degree and study for an exam.*

undergrad degree in business/commerce and then you need to pass a professional exam

No you don't. It's literally ten times worse than people make it out to be. Note, I didn't say DIFFICULT, it's just rote memorization, basically.

No. Double major in accounting, or he won't have enough creds to sit for CPA.

You need x accounting creds. You cannot get them with anything but a double major in accounting. I know I just said that, but I want to stress it for OP. Most people go for masters just to have enough creds, which is stupid. Like accounting.

Be the kind of person whose only real characteristic is being extremely boring.
Slave through the most tedious bachelor's degree imaginable.
Actually enjoy math.

You don't need to be Jewish, but it probably helps.
