<p>I am considering majoring in accouting so I have a backup in case medical school doesn't pan out. I have read the princeton review job profile. I was wondering what exactly accountants do on a daily basis? Does most of their work involve just sitting at a computer all day? Also, how difficult is it to become an accountant and is there a lot of travel? Lastly, what does accouting lead to a few years down the road?</p>
