How do I know that I am doing the right thing?

I will be pursuing my bachelors. I already have my associates. I will be moving to where I don't know anybody. And I don't deal well with stress.
Is this really the right thing for me?

I often listen to power metal or classical music while doing homework or studying. I'm starting to think that it might be distracting. Is listening to music while studying more harmful or beneficial? #music

How can you find a job in your chosen field after graduation when they all require experience?

I look at all the job postings periodically to get a sense of what type of accounting I want to do when I get my bachelor's degree. They all require experience to start. Is it really necessary to have the experience if you've earned a degree? #accounting

Do you need to have rental history to buy a house?

Rent prices in my area are through the roof, and I feel as though it would be much wiser to invest in property, such as a condo. Is it required to have had your own lease prior to buying a house, or how can you get around it?
