Question accounting entrance exam

I've been studying for the accounting entrance exam and I wanted to know those who took it, was it similar to the practice question set? and if was not, is there anything i would need to know in order to get at least a 90 on it? I got an A in acct 2101 and a b in 2102. trying to apply as an accounting major too.

I took it and got a 54 (took accounting 2101 last fall at my old uni). The debits and credit stuff are similar, but the exam overall isn’t similar to the practice because it was very conceptual. So unless you conceptually understand it, I think you should do more than the practice exam. I heard skoolers is really good with the conceptual stuff and recently got the skoolers packet. I’ll let you know how it goes

please let me know!! i’m taking mine nov. 10 and i would say i understand it for the most part. i still get my debits and credits confused, like what causes it to go up and down but the math portion for everything is understandable

I took financial accounting at KSU and took the entrance exam last summer. I purchased Skoolers and studied for about a month, and I ended up scoring an 82. I highly recommend Skoolers, but I wouldn’t rely solely on the practice question set that UGA provides. While some of the questions on the exam are similar to the practice set, it definitely doesn’t cover everything you will need to know. I personally didn’t think the exam was that difficult, but Skoolers definitely prepared me. All you will need is their entrance exam review.
