Nathan Said:

I am currently working toward my bachelors in accounting. I enjoy doing that type of work so i don't find it boring.

Seth Said:

What UC is best for a career in business or accounting for a major company?

We Answered:

UC Berkeley has the best undergraduate business school in the UC system. In fact, they are ranked third in the country (behind Wharton and MIT).

If you get accepted to Berkeley -- go there over the other schools you mention.

Berkeley does not allow you to enter the B-School until your Junior year. I would suggest starting out in economics and applying to the Haas school as a Junior.

You can major in accounting -- but my suggestion would be to go for finance if you are mathematically inclined.

UCLA and UCSD do not offer undergraduate business degrees. Both schools have excellent economics departments.

Howard Said:

Is accounting a rewarding business career?

We Answered:

It depends on what YOUR definition of rewarding is. Admittedly, it is tedious to study for at times (lots of numbers, memorization of accounting rules, etc). But as a career, I think it is very rewarding. The pay is good, demand for accountants is increasing, and the career path allows for professional growth and increasing responsibilities. You really have a chance to make a difference. Look at the current financial meltdown. Some of it could have been avoided if proper accounting procedures had been followed at the banks with issues like gains on securitization.
