What was it like to study accounting in the US after studying accounting in Saudi Arabia?
I had an amazing experience at the ³Ô¹ÏÍø. The hardest thing was the language barrier as it is always easier to study in the native language. So, effort that I had to exert was more than native English students. As for new topics in accounting, that was varied. I had not studied Intermediate Accounting 2 in my bachelor’s so that was difficult. Auditing was not different than what I studied in my bachelor’s. However, individual taxation was challenging as we only have corporate taxation in Saudi Arabia.
