Comment:

Absolutely useless. This course attempts to teach you too much stuff in one semester. The only thing you end up understanding is the financial calculator. You apply formulas without even understanding the purpose of the result. This is thanks to the awesome teaching skills of Pr. Jassim. Fun and friendly person, but nonexistent teaching skills.

If you do the tutorials and practice sets and practice midterms/finals, the exams aren't hard. Not an easy A, but definitely do able if you work for it.

Comment:

I went to all his classes, did all the problem sets however he ended putting questions that were never seen before. Don't go ask him questions cause he'll just not answer them. The only thing I learned from this class is how to use the financial calculator.

Midterms are hard, final is harder. But if you go to the tutorials and do all of the practice sets you should be ok. I just wish he uploaded practice multiple choice questions as well.

Comment:

It is the hardest course I have ever taken. He does seem to know a lot but fails to transfer that knowledge to the student by making it too difficult and complicated. What he teaches compared to what he tests you on are worlds apart. He tries to cover one chapter in 10 minutes making you responsible for a lot on your own. The load is excessive.

Few classes in this term and Rad Jasaim shows lack of knowledge and experience. Pointless, old fashioned and boring. A complete waste of time and money.

Comment:

we are paying an expensive fee for a pointless class with a terrible teacher. He does not have any credential in finance, but he stills teaches in advance course. Very questionable. he bullishes his students given his position as McGill'a teachers' union's leader. Don't take any course with him.

One of the worst teachers at McGill. A terrible accent, it is difficult to understand. He is pointless, unrespectful with students, and he has no clue of finance. Avoid any class with him.

Comment:

Avoid him. He is the worst ever teacher at McGill. He does not explain anything, and when you ask him in class, he is not able of answering. I don't understand why he is still there... maybe because he is the leader of the union? Union vs. Quality.... very disappointing experience at McGill, which is supposed to be' the best university of Canada'
