Comment:

i've never taken a more difficult class. He makes the class even more difficult. I spoke to a couple classmates about dropping the class. Even as simple as asking a question he will attack you with something like "if you read the textbook u would know". YES I AM READING IT I DIDN'T SPEND $300 FOR A TEXTBOOK AND NOT READ IT. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS.

Just midterm and final. If you do homework and participate, you pass, otherwise no. He is funny. If the accounting is your major take him, otherwise don't. If you fail midterm you need to drop the class.

Comment:

If you don't do well on the midterm you might as well withdraw, he only gives the midterm and a final, very old school. Personally, for someone who does not know anything about accounting, it was infuriatingly difficult. I wish the professor did a better job of communicating to the students.

Comment:

Mr. Ronald Plotkin sounds knowledgeable about Accounting, but cant teach beginners. He doesnt know how teach to reach you and to make you understand. You want to be confused in a class then take his class, but if you want to understand the materials and contents of the class, please stay away from his class. Boastful with a frighten demeanor.

Super cool professor. I took him in the spring of 2015. Gives 1 midterm and 1 final. If you do homework and attend class you'll be fine. He gives about one homework a week with a chapter reading. You don't really have to do the reading but it helps! He asks for you to bring the textbook to every class.

Heis very punctual on form. You are required to read all of the book, he does cover the material a little fast, but come on it is college. If you pay attention and attend class every day you wont do bad. You must study and do the assigments, or else you will fail. The Midterm easy if you study hard.

Comment:

Very good professor. Fair when it comes to grades. Knows what he teaches. He applies a lot of good humor to classes. His midterm is a little tough though, very strict on formatting. He is gonna ask you to do the 3 major financial statements and he expects you to know the format.

Comment:

he only teaches at Fall night, he covers alot more chapters than the day class, he isn't very helpful and sometimes confuse himself. If you just want to pass the class, don't take him, take the day class, because day class cover less chapter. I have no idea why i got all my grade above 90 still got B.... is it suppose A??

Comment:

Prof. Plotkin is a very good professor. He explains the material clearly and has a few review days during the semester and allows you to ask him anything. The key to accounting is to show up for class and it will be an easy "A".
