<p>Hi, I'll be a rising junior for Fall 2010. My pre-enrollment is April 12-14. I am going to take an accounting class next semester. I have two options: either take AEM 2210 (financial accounting) or take NCC 5500 (MBA-level financial accounting). NCC 5500 is for non-Johnson students. As a rising junior, I am able to sign up for that class. I have not taken a college-level accounting class before, but I did take high school level accounting. The reason why I am interested in taking NCC 5500 is that, once I finish this class, I don't have to bother accounting again. The stuff on NCC is pretty intense. AEM 2210 would obviously be easier, but I don't know if I should challenge myself.</p>

<p>Anyone here have taken NCC 5500? Would you mind to share some experience or give me some advice? Thank you.</p>

<p>take AEM 2210. it’s required for an AEM major - unless you’re not an AEM major, but then again - you should probably take the undergrad class anyway. financial accounting is only the first in a series of four intro/general accounting classes offered (fin acct, managerial, intermediate acct 1 and 2). then you get into the more specified accounting classes based on specialization.</p>
