Comment:

Hard to understand what he is saying in his lectures, the entire course was based on two tests and a final. I wouldn't have made it through the semester without the old tests.

Comment:

He doesn't teach. He stands in the front of class and mumbles about finance to himself for an hour, and then ends class. The tests are open book, but there are questions that come from somewhere outside the book. He will not help you!

Comment:

Knows finance just can't teach it very well. Gives 2 tests, which are open book but I highly suggest you get old copies of his tests. Gives HW everyday but it adds up to one test grade. Doesn't explain things well at all. I passed with an A thanks to a tutor, old tests, and studying several different finance textbooks.

Comment:

Would dismiss class in the middle of a lecture - BAD at test time. I think he actually forgot that he never went over some material that was on the test. Get his old tests! I hated the class, but I ended up with a B.

Comment:

I had a problem connecting all the material together to where it would make sense to me. Tests are confusing and too general. There is a lot of matching and short answer questions on the test. Very boring...

Comment:

I was saying his classes are good if you are interested in finance and can get him to talk about his past experiences...hint hint for you gals and guys that have him for risk management and financial case studies. OH AND IF YOU THOUHGT THE 315 OPEN BOOK FINAL WAS HARD WAIT TIL YOU GET THE 446 FINAL OPEN BOOK ALSO.
