Comment:

Professor Cai is great. She really wants you to succeed and makes it extremely possible to ace this course. The reason I received a B is because I slacked on the first exam (weighted the heaviest). The 3 tests equal 75 percent of your grade but don't let that divert you. If you do the practice problems, homework, and cheat sheet, you'll pass easily

Professor Cai was excellent. She legitimately cares about the success of her students, is a fair grader, and her in-class exercises are quite helpful. She explains things clearly and will take time to help students understand the material.

The subject itself is extremely difficult, but the professor does an amazing job of simplifying a hard class and making it easier to understand. 3 exams, cheat sheet allowed but no problem examples. Hard class, but great professor.

Comment:

Amazing professor who knows what she's doing. The class is made up of three exams, two cases, and 5 quizzes. It seem a lot but it really isn't. If you study her lecture notes and her examples, then you'll do well on the exam . She's super nice too.

I would highly recommend Professor Cai. I also took her for FIN581. As long as you take good notes, go over the homework and practice questions before the exam you will do well. There are no tricky questions on the exam and she really cares about her students. Definitely a great instructor!

good prof, teaches right out of the book and slides. Exams are very easy and often the problems are taken from the homework or in class examples. Pay attention and do the homework, and it should be an easy A

Prof. is very interested in making sure all students learn and understand the material. Helpful, although not the most personable person. I was disappointed by how un-challenging the exams were.

She is a great teacher. By far the best Finance teacher at UMD. Just do your work and you'll succeed in this class. She is also very nice and is willing to help out on any troubles you are having.

Talks fast, but really knows her stuff. Very helpful. Passes out problems during class that highlight exactly what's going to be on the exam. You get to use a sheet of notes on the exams. Easy class.

Easy class, if you follow her printouts and do some of the homework. Probably easies out of all Finance classes.
