Answer 1 :
Generally you would need to take Mathematics at University level to get a top paid job. Although, you can do vocational training instead to do accountancy but the job opportunities are much reduced. ICT would neither help nor hinder your chances at getting into accountancy. However, if you are very good at this subject and can get a top grade, it would be a good idea to stick at it! Economics is a good subject to choose if you want to become an accountant.

Answer 3 :
In high school you only need to do well in the courses required to get into university. Nothing special is really needed.
