    I want to study one of the subjects above ( nearly certain it's business). I want to do this at home by myself.


    Which is easiest for studying yourself and why?

    Thanks everybody!

    I do all three. Business is straight out of the book just a lot of learing people say its like biology on that sind

    Accounting you need a teacher because a lot of tricky stuff in it

    Economics, a teacher would help not essential though

    Business course is much longer, but the theory is very easy.

    Economics couse is shorter, but theory takes a bit of thought, still ok though.

    Depends how much time you can put into it. Business might be better in school because you're at it everyday, it is a long course...

    Business is very easy, the course is long enough though.

    Economics you'd need a teacher to explain some of the more "apt" concepts in it..

    Accounting is quite easy. Learn the method of doing a question eg. A Balance Sheet. Apply the method to every question. The questions will be the same layout with different figures so as long as you keep practicing the method it is just as handy as anything else.

    You do not need to be HL Math standard. It's the method and layout that you need to keep practicing and be able to do on the day. This is why it has a high honours rate in the exams.

    Don't forget about it because you think it might be hard because of the maths side. There isn't a maths side. Use the calculator to add and subtract and off you go.
