Background of the Study

The most common concern for incoming college students is selecting a course that will

undoubtedly fit their attitude, strengths, skills, and knowledge. These days, some students have

difficulty selecting the right course due to the following worries and factors: lack of knowledge,

poverty, peer pressure, insecurity, and failures in both academic and personal areas. They should

be permitted to pick their courses in order to prepare for college because they would learn more

conveniently. Students should be given the chance to pursue their preferred course of study
because they are aware of their areas of strength. The preferences of students for teaching and

learning have been studied in particular within the context of online or distance learning (e.g.

Lizzio et al., 2002; Richardson 2005, 2006). Choosing a course may take a long time, but it is

critical, it may be the deciding factor in whether or not you continue your career.

People must understand that if they want to break into the middle class or higher, they will

need not only experience but also a degree (Samuelson, 2017). It may be difficult, but it is one of

the foundations of your career. Accounting, Business, and Management (ABM), students will

benefit from this in expanding their skills, becoming more competent, and understanding and

navigating their college experience. In order to better fulfill the needs of the learners, the

curriculum has been altered by allowing them to select a course that matches their interests in the

field.
