So I’m an Accounting major pursuing a CPA. I want the CPA for security, the ability to always have a job, and the ability to be able to capitalize on opportunity. BUt long term, my dream has always been to become a lawyer or a college professor.
To take the CPA exam in my state, you need 150 credits. I will graduate with a bachelor’s at 120 credits. The plan originally was get a Masters in Accounting to get me the necessary credits to take the CPA, but recently I’ve been considering adding a double major in PoliSci (36 credits).
It is a cheaper way that gets me right to my goal of taking the CPA exam, while leaving doors open in other career opportunities (professor/lawyer).
Is this too unconventional? Am I reaching here? I love Politics/American government/history so it would be very interesting on top of its other benefits.
