Why do people take on degrees when they can just do the acca course and become chartered accountants. Aren't these degrees ineffective when it comes to time and costs. Has having a degree benefitted you?

How demanding is the actual job? Is it long hours, is it fast paced etc… and if you’re going to spend 3-5 years studying, how straight forward can it be to reach 6 figures? I know that depends on the individual and what areas you progress into.

Hi,
I’ve just graduated with a Maths degree and I want to a get a trainee accounting job, hopefully starting sometime around the new year.

I did do an internship with an accounting firm but as a maths student I have no exam exemptions.

Do you think I could get a trainee accounting job even if I haven’t started the AAT exams or will I have to have start. And if I need to start, would I need to have completed some of the levels. So would I have to have completed say the Level 1 Bookkeping award?

The AAT exams are quite expensive and I don’t want to spend all my money on them so any advice would be great. Honestly just looking for way to get a decent trainee accounting job.

I am sorry but the title a bit of a clickbait. "Become chartered accountant without work experience". Because this is our biggest problem. We can finish the school, get the degrees, but the 3 years work experience is very difficult. That's why I watched your video. So I am very disappointed. With an other title this video would be a very nice one, very well put together.
