A Discriminant Model to Distinguish Between Successful Accounting and Non-accounting Students in the Faculty of Commerce of the University of Nairobi

Abstract

Students in the Faculty of Commerce of the University of Nairobi have often fond difficulty in choosing which options to pursue upon entering their second year of study.Whereas the Accounting Department has over the years required a student to have done well in first year in Fundamentals of Accounting and Quantitative Methods in order to register for the Accounting option,no other department offers such a guideline to students wishing to do options offered in those departments.
