Student Profile: An experience to savour

I’d never considered doing Commerce because I didn’t do any business subjects in secondary school but for some reason it felt like the right decision. I also loved the idea of learning French and having the chance to live in France for a year!

I went into my course without knowing what to expect considering I had never studied any commerce modules before. All modules were meant to be taught from a beginner’s level, which most were, but there were some I had a bit of trouble grasping. Accounting was one of the difficult ones because some people had been studying it for years already and even though it was meant to be an introduction to accounting, I still felt there was an expectation of basic knowledge.
