Hi guys!!
I came to US few months ago. I am really confused what to do about my school. I have BSC in Computer science and I want to pursue my graduate study in Accounting.But my family is pushing to go to Nursing Colleges (for RN) because of the job outlook and pay. I know I will perfprm well in Accounting and I have more interest in this area. What do you advise me.

I would agree with your family if you want to make money nursing is the way to go. I have an undergraduate in accounting(which hardly pays unless you go the cpa route) and a masters in computer science(because I always loved computers and had an interest, but unlike you I had no one to advise me) to date I haven't been able to secure any employment in computer science I received my degree in 2004 with superb grades(I feel like I wasted my time and money). If you really love it and don't mind the low pay then go for it, there will always be jobs for accountants.
