Comment:

This is the 6th course that I have taken with Mr. Fagnani: ACCT211, FINSV400, FINSV411, FINSV420, INS301 and this BA250. He teached the way all teachers should..show up and do the work. Unfortunately, for most, you won't appreciate him until you don't ahve him anymore. He IS the best teacher at Worthington. A true professional!

Comment:

If you take this class, you will work hard for your grade. However, it's certainly not impossible and if you do your homework and pay attention to what he says, you'll do fine. I'd say the bigger challenge are the long classes (1 hour, 50 minutes). Some people say he picks on you, but he only does that to keep you focused.

Comment:

He can pick on people. He calls on you at random and most people are usually in lala land so watch out because he can fire back at you. otherwise I did not have to much trouble in the class . If you study the old tests he gives you most of the questions on that are the same.

Comment:

I just finished this class. I missed one class due to an important event that came up. Otherwise I would never skip this class. He called on me alot, and usually did not answer correctly. I felt like a lowlife when I could not answer the question when under pressure. I studied for all of the tests and scored well. If you show up you will pass.

Comment:

I've posted negative reviews of him in the past..but what a difference a semester makes!Mr. Fagnani is still very demanding in his expectations..he wants students to understand what they are doing...but he is also a fair grader these days. As long as you do the work, he will cut you some slack. He's extremely qualified and gives some great advice.

This class, like ACCT 211 is no easy class. YOU WILL WORK FOR YOUR GRADE...YOU DON'T JUST SIT THERE AND PASS. People who show up to class, do the assignments and try to learn the stuff do fine; people who are looking for an easy class will fail. People who rate this guy poorly obviously were looking an easy grade. BEST INSTRUCTOR AT WORTHINGTON!!

Comment:

The second time I took his class, I passed like others here. It's all true what you read below. You sit in class and think to yourself, I'm glad I'm not that kid (the one being scolded like a 5th grader) I started taking xanax for his class, otherwise i wouldn't go due to his..whatever you'd call it..Prickishness? He passed me out of kindness tho..

Everything you read below this is true. He can be great, he can purposefully make you feel small, moronic. It took me two tries to pass, but finally did, barely. There is no other prof who teaches this, so you just have to deal....don't wear hats, and joke with him.

He's really not a bad guy and he will teach you a lot of vital information. Just don't act like a moron or wear a hat to his class. Only an idiot would do that!

Study hard and DO NOT cram for his tests. The old exams are on reserve on the library website, so definitely use them. He is hostile towards his students sometimes. Read the material and understand it as best as you can bc hes not much help. Also, he tells bad jokes.

I've never seen someone so hostile to questions or confusion. Understand the material, and answer quickly and clearly to avoid being humiliated in class.

Comment:

He is smart, professional, fun, and challanging. He works hard and expects you to do the same. His expectations are very clear, so no surprises. He's excited about accounting and he can make the subject intersting to you. If you are at school to learn his classes are the place to be. He's one of the best professors.

Awesome teacher. Knows what he is talking about. If you have no clue about accounting or if you are incompetent in general he may move too fast for your speed. If you are going into business you WILL NEED what he teaches so either learn from him or on your own.

No doubt he can be an arrogant sob. the homework sucks because you get it before he teaches the material so its hard but use the book's website and you'll be fine. easy grader on h/w and lots of bonuses on tests if you know ur current fiscal events! since hes the only acctg prof you have to take him. hes scary at first but chills out by the end.

Comment:

One of my least favorite profs to date. He is arrogant and very aggressive toward students. The class often turns into an inquiaition on a regular basis. Worst of all, you largely have to teach yourself the material with difficult out of class assignments. If you ask a question, chances are he will make you look like and idiot. Horrible.
