What types of classes count as "general business electives"? Specifically, I'm in NY State, but if another state website defines "general business electives" I'd appreciate a link.

For example, I'm assuming that economics classes count. So too should business statistics, but what about calculus based probability and statistics from a mathematics department? I've seen an outside source alleging that computer science classes count toward business electives, but I'm having trouble finding an actual definition of a business elective in my state's legal code regarding public accountancy.

Thanks!

Thanks! Hopefully mathematics classes are considered business electives in NY too, since then all I'd need to do is take the accounting coursework.
