DON'T buy the book. If you like funny professors, go to class...or don't. It really doesn't matter. The slides are all I ever used for this class.

Teaching style only added to confusion. Final exam was unexpectedly more difficult than other exams, and was reflected in class average. the jury is still out on whether or not I'd reccomend him.

very very easy until the final. no point in going to class. can't tell if the final was hard or people just got lazy and expected something easy.

Attending lecture is essentially useless. Midterms were easy, but the final was unexpectedly more difficult...everyone was shocked at the level he expected us to perform

The book won't help you much and the class isn't hard--> it just seems kind of pointless. I think this is his last year though.

I love his class- sure it can be boring, but his jokes are good and the tests are pretty straight forward. if you meet with him he is also very helpful. he is leaving after this year, so i say take his class while you still can!

I'm sure he knows his stuff, he just doesn't like teaching and can't convey the information. I love accounting, but I am avoiding any class he teaches. He's not too serious.

Yes, he has funny jokes, other than that plan on studying by yourself becasue he woun't do much in class. If you really want to understand Acc don't count on him, take another prof.
