Comment:

We asked him if he would shorten our second midterm since we didn't have enough time. We also asked to have a half page cheat sheet instead of a quarter and he let us. For the final, he gave us 3/4 because we asked him. With numerical heavy classes, you have to be able to teach yourself. Take his smaller section if possible.

Comment:

When 50% of your class fails,its not because they didnt try but it was because he is a terrible and shameless teacher who continues to teach after getting failed as a teacher but drops students in his class. What a disgrace to himself and the university itself who continues to market themselves with these teachers on board.

Midterms are very different from class/assignment questions. Our class avg on midterm #1 was failing, he asked for feedback but didn't take any of our suggestions to improve/help us. Very confusing when you ask him a simple question. Dropped.

Assignments are easy because the questions are very similar to the ones he does in class. Midterms are very different from class/assignment questions.

He is a nice guy, but not a great professor. Does no examples in the class and then expects students to know what they are doing on assignments and exams. Avoid him if at all possible.

Comment:

He shows that he tries to pretend the students and design the class according to them but eventually draws the argument in his favour and take the last word. He tries to explain his students all by his heart but his explanation is hard. It becomes frustrating. Most annoying, he thinks everyone be finance specialist. Never chose this class.

Comment:

I tagged him as "There for you". Reason is that if he is not there it will be easy to get grades. He tries too hard that you are done in understanding him because he can not explain well. Second, he takes hours explaining what he will not ask in exam, reason is he beleives everyone should become a financial analyst one day.

Comment:

The professor is very confusing. He does not understand that finance could be just another class part of the program for students rather teaches to the level that everyone on Earth should admire finance concepts and some point of tie in life should turn a financial analyst. Toughest teacher to understand, very irritating with the speed of the class

Comment:

He's really helpful and caring. He actively adjusts his class based on students feedback and makes sure that everybody's appreciating the class. If you have a question he spends time on it as much as you need just to make sure that you are all clear. If finance and all the calculations confuses you, then this class would be a good choice.

Comment:

He means well but just is not a very good prof. Our class was doing bad so he asked what he could change but just completely rejected our comments. He is not good at explaining concepts and often did questions wrong or had wrong answers in the slides. Not helpful at all. Stay away at all costs!

Comment:

This Prof is by far the worst I've ever encountered, if you have him, drop the class. Now! He will ruin your Finance experience. I get 90's in other classes but not his, he does not prepare you at all for his tests. To give you an example the average on our midterm was a 50% and the class isn't even half full midway through.

Loved this prof! Exams were so straight forward. If you can work a calculator you can ace his class. If you can't get a good grade in his class you should seriously question whether you should be in finance or not.

Comment:

This is honestly the worst Bus prof. I went to his office 3 times. Once it took him 20 minutes to answer a yes/no question, second time he didn't even know how to use a financial calculator and third time he was too "Busy", very unhelpful. The material on the test is nothing like the material in the class. He ruins students' futures of finance.
