is accounting easier in the real world?

i’m currently taking ACCT 342 and ACCT 343 (intermediate accounting 2 and 3) at the same time. Everytime I get to a new chapter, I feel more and more lost. I feel like I have no idea what i’m doing and that I won’t remember anything when i get to my actual job, or i’ll flunk an interview because of it. Does it get easier? I’ve heard some people say that accounting on the job is easier than in college, is that true?
