I am a Freshmen in Undergrad and I am looking to complete the Adventures in CRE Accelerator Financial Modeling course this Summer. Although, I have only taken a couple Finance Courses and have yet taken an Accounting Course. Is this knowledge crucial in order to complete this course? Thanks for your help!

Nope, no "pre-req's" for the ACRE offering.
Spencer and Michael both do a really good job of making the learning curve manageable.
There are other courses (through other providers) that you absolutely have to have a foundation to get the most out of, but ACRE is the best resource I've found so far that doesn't punish someone for not having a foundation.
That's not to say that the course is remedial, either - they just chose to explain concepts more simply/straightforward than some of the other offerings do.
Thanks for your response!
How long would you say it takes to complete this course? And do you think putting this on my resume when Applying to Internships would be recognized as beneficial?
No problem - giving you a time frame is tough because learning is really individual/personal.
On one end of the spectrum, you could get through everything in a single (grueling) weekend if you for some reason had to.
On the other end, there's enough content there to chew on for a couple of months if you really dedicate yourself to mastering all of the nuances they teach you.
I imagine a lot of the terminology will take you some time to get comfortable with given that you're starting from a base of zero, too.
Is there a reason you're focused on/concerned about the timing?
The only reason would be to finish before September when I’m back in school Full-Time and have a more busy schedule. But, thanks for your information and help I really Appreciate it!
