A.K.A. How I Survived My Tax Course

Ask a student to name the most difficult subject in college, and chances are, you’ll receive a three letter word for an answer: tax. Indeed, a tax course is one of, if not the most, dreaded subjects in our tertiary level of education. Most degrees don’t require a tax course, and most certainly, these degrees are the envy of those who have to endure the hardships of the subject. The taxing demands of a tax course, no pun intended, stem from a variety of reasons:

* A tax course involves laws, and studying laws do not only require memorization but clear and deep comprehension as well.

* A tax course involves numbers. And not everyone is good with numbers.

* A tax course touches on many branches of study where one is intimately related with the others.

When I was in college, I found my tax course fascinating and fearful at the same time. Fascinating because such a field of study would present so many interesting topics that would greatly aid me in many aspects of what was then the professional life I have envisioned for myself. Fearful because the same study presented so many challenges that I thought were rather insurmountable.

But guess what? I managed to pass my course and eventually earn my degree… perhaps without flying colors but with much experience to show for what I have learned, nonetheless.

How did I do it? Yes, I could tell you about a lot of fanciful tactics to conquer your tax studies, but that would be gravely romanticizing what should be kept simple. The fact is, the way to pass your tax course is a secret that is only made as such because of our denial of what should be done even before we consider giving it a shot?

And what is this secret in conquering your tax course?

Persistence

Persistence, of course, presumes that you have taken the initial steps to try your best to meet the challenges that await you. And when you encounter some rough sailing during the semester offering such a course, you have to keep your mind in the game and continue trying. That, my friend, is what persistence is all about.

Your tax course may demand you to read voluminous statutes, may require you to memorize countless equations, and may necessitate a mountain load of calculations, but you should never waver. You have what it takes, and all you have to do is to remember that fact and try.
