Chelan High School Student - 11/28/07 
The interesting things about this class are the hands on experience with computerized accounting. By using the computer excessively, We are able to better ourselves on the computer. I like how the assignments and lessons are laid out, and exams. I like that we have one big assignment due per week, and how we still learn key concepts to accounting. At first it was difficult, and we thought it was tough to keep up, but after a while, the schedule settled in and now it's easy to keep up with the class. My three favorite things about the class are: the time we have to get an assigment, or quiz done, the reading isn't difficult with over 25 pages, and how the lessons are laid out right in the beginning so we know what and when to turn in things. My three least favorite things about this class are: some of the exam essay questions take a really long time to do, with all the transactions, and we have to cut the multiple choice shorter. The amount of energy it takes to read the computer screen of all the reading involved. I also don't like some of the quizzes becasue if you mess one little thing up, you bomb the quiz. You miss one question, which leads you to a 3/4, and not a 9/10. I would like people to know that in the beginning the class is difficult, but later it gets easier. And Dont Slack Off!
