Schellhorn is a great option for Fin201. She is very helpful inside and outside the classroom. Her tests are very similar to the study guides she gives you.

Comment:

I don't know why the reviews are so bad here. Sure, the material is not ground-breaking--but what do you expect? She is a really good professor and knows her stuff. She is always willing to meet with students if they have questions and stops in class if you ever have a question. She even gives you study guides with the topics on the test.

Comment:

Truly one of the most boring classes I have ever taken. Not completely horrible, but I'm sure everyone would just zone out or do other work in class and then just read the textbook before the tests because her powerpoints are useless. Get another professor if possible just because her teaching is so boring.

Comment:

She really is a sweet lady, but not the best teacher. Honestly could not learn one thing during class. Frequently went to her office hours which was SOMETIMES helpful but still did so poorly on exams and will probably fail the final. She scales the course and wants her students to do well, but doesn't go about it the right way.

Comment:

Dr. Schellhorn definitely cares about her students, and she helped me with some confusions during office hours. However, I think that something she could have done better is making the material more interesting, and conveying it in such a way that students can understand. She is helpful one-on-one, but her lectures can be hard to follow.

Comment:

If I had the chance to go back and tell myself not to take this course I absolutely would. She is the worst possible teacher you could get at this school. All students fail her exams and she gives no help because even she doesnt understand the material. Cant even answer questions in office hours because you are expected to know it already

Comment:

Professor Schellhorn is very knowledgeable about the subject and clearly conveys her knowledge to the class. I could tell that she keeps herself up to date. She would share articles that she found that relate to the subject. The class was a little too lecture-heavy, more interaction would have been nice. Overall, she was a good and caring teacher.

Marketing 201, or markets and institutions, is a super boring class, but if you are looking to just pass the class deff take schellhorn, and plus you'll learn along the way

Schellhorn is deffinetly your best option for Finance 201. Gives study guide, tests are exactly what she teaches in class, and little homework. Do yourself a favor and take her for Finance 201, especially because all of the other teachers are so bad.

Comment:

Idk why Schellhorn has such terrible reviews. I had her for FIN 200 and she's a really good teacher and offers to help you if you dont understand. The material can be a little difficult at times but she does her best to teach it and you just have to apply yourself like you would for any math class. I would deff take her again!!

Comment:

Dr. Schellhorn is by far he worst professor I've ever had. She says on day 1 that the final exam is going to be incredibly difficult and every semester the average is an F. She also says that she won't curve the course at the end, but not each individual exam. She only curves by 9 points but says that she will curve by a lot more than than.

Comment:

Dr. Schellhorn is a very nice woman and clearly knows what she is talking about, however she think everyone should just automatically getitand if you don't she essentially tells you that you shouldn't be in her class. Also, grade depends on just 3 exams with unfair grading scale - if u get just 5 wrong youre already at a 60% and she does not curve

Comment:

Nice lady, but DO NOT take the class. Even if its the only finance class left open don't take it. It's not worth it, half the class fails her tests and theres only 3 tests with no curve, only two homework's so theres no way to get your grade up. She also made sure to remind the class about the withdrawal date...

Really don't understand all the frustration. She was a great teacher, not all that exciting, but I learned a lot in her class. She even helps everyone out with a grade boosting assignment to finish the semester.

Her tests are impossible and she would rather jump in front of a bus than curve your test grade. One of the most boring classes I've ever taken here at SJU. AVOID HER OR U WILL PAY THE PRICE

This is not an easy class. Having schellhorn as a teacher makes it even worse. She is hard to understand, boring, and would rather go to prison than ever curve a test or your grade.

Schellhorn is one of the worst teachers in the business school, but as a finance major, you're probably going to have to take her.
