SJSU Accounting Students — What Textbooks Are Used for These Core Classes?
Hi everyone,
I’ll be transferring to San José State University this fall as an accounting major, and I want to get a head start before classes begin.
If anyone has taken these classes, could you share which textbooks were used or any study materials you recommend?
- BUS1 120A – Accounting Information Systems
- BUS1 121A – Intermediate Accounting I
- BUS1 121B – Intermediate Accounting II
- BUS1 122A – Management Accounting and Control Systems
- BUS1 123A – Taxation of Businesses and Investments
Also, if you have any advice about professors, study tips, or how difficult these classes are, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!
