I don't think ACCA is that hard compared to engineering math.

I did a Bachelors in Accounting & Finance (finished top 1%), now just finished one of the professional accounting exams (not naming here because I'm easily doxxed).
I even won an award for one of their papers. Am working in Big 4 now. I usually score in top 5 percentile for most exams I take.

I'd say that ICAEW is much more difficult than ACCA.
I know someone who is taking ACCA now after failing several ICAEW papers.
I would say that ACCA is only tough because many Tom, Dick and Harry enroll in it for the money.

Engineering math is much tougher than normal math.
I took Further Math during A-level but mechanics was too difficult for me to comprehend.
Dropped it in the end.

Meanwhile, I picked up Accountancy during A-level with ease despite coming from pure science background.
Still managed to win 2 awards from Cambridge.

While I agree with you that Engineering is tougher, but I disagree with this statement.
Accounting students cannot go back to science stream even if they suddenly became smarter and can understand engineering math easily.

Are you sure it's accounting? Maybe bookkeeping like double entries or Introduction to Accounting whereby just prepare balance sheet and P/L?
Real accounting is more complex than that but still not as complex as engineering.

True. The ratio of females to male is like 1.5 to 1.
No reason for guys to be single

I'm talking about Big 4 demographics.
Ratio of female to male is around 1.5:1.

If you from engineering, the ratio of female to male is like 0.2:1.
Good luck finding a gf

I had a friend who did engineering. He said his whole lecture hall only got <10 girls.
