An undergraduate 3rd year student currently studying a BSc (Hons) in Accounting and Finance at Manchester Metropolitan University. I have always had an interest in mathematical based subjects due to the problem solving nature of them. Studying mathematics led me to choosing accounting and finance as a degree, which requires a high level of problem solvability and my previous interest in mathematics gave me the skills to be able to take on this degree, whilst also expanding on them. During my time studying at Manchester Metropolitan University, I have learnt to be more resilient by putting myself through hard tasks under strict time constraints, allowing me to further my ability to handle pressure. My fast learning agility allowed me pick things up quickly and adapt well to new content at university. This degree has furthered my financial and accounting knowledge massively, specifically through the teaching of how to carry out an audit and the mindset to have when going through the audit process. I hope to expand this knowledge base throughout the rest of my degree and apply what I have learnt in the real world.
