<p>Could you get into the big four, or any good accounting company if you major in poli sci in undergrad, but go to two years in a macc program?</p>

<p>I would imagine that if the program you are attending is recruited by B4 you could get in.</p>

<p>Does everyone agree with td…?</p>

4

<p>I would say so. As long as you cover the classes required for the CPA exam in your state</p>

5

<p>Yes you can, and it’s crap like this that will increase the supply of accountants.</p>

6

<p>of course you can. 2 years worth of accounting classes is the same as majoring in accounting. Generally accounting major = 2 years of primarily accounting courses. </p>

<p>actually you dont even to major in business to get a job in big4 advisory. a big 4 partner was telling us that they hired an english major! wierd, right?</p>

<p>Such ignorance in this thread.</p>

<p>For big 4, you will need to study and do WELL in accounting, but if you do better in econ/finance you will be good to go as well.</p>
