Comment:

Mr. Aquilino is a great professor, but his exams are very difficult. He does not prepare you for these exams in the class, and expects you to teach yourself in order to pass. What you will learn from this class is how the tax world truly works. Three exams all MC. He does not expect you to know phase outs or any math calculated by a computer.

Comment:

Professor Aquilino has really good lectures. He's smart and brings real world examples and experience to the classroom. His exams are really difficult tho, you have to work yourself just to do well. A lot of people fail because you have to read the chapters and understand the work in order to do well.

Comment:

He's a good teacher, lectures are actually fun to listen too, has a lot of experience in his field and gives great real life examples. But he doesn't prepare us well for exams at all, there insanely hard even if you study a lot. Does not give much of a curve either, overall good teacher but exams are next to impossible. Try to take someone else

Comment:

Listen to his lectures and start studying a little every week before the exam. If you do the work you will get an A. If you have an interest in tax, his lectures are great. He relates a lot of real life experiences to the material. Do your homework and review it for exams. You get what you put into this class.

He is the best professor in MSU! You get what you give in this class. He is willing to help & prepares you for every exam! It is not an easy course, but no course is! It is as easy as you make it for yourself! Know your stuff and you will get an A! Participate in his class! He makes the material fun & relates it to real life!

Touch teacher - you MUST STUDY AHEAD OF TIME. If you wait until exam time you will fail. Three exams equal weight. Study Study Study - and you will do well. If you can't dedicate the time - you will fail.

Comment:

Knowledgable professor but difficult. No quiz and HW isn't graded. Three exams which cover a lot of material and are difficult. Not an easy subject to learn and he doesn't prepare you well for the exams. If possible take another professor, they will help you understand the material and prepare you better. Good luckl

Comment:

He is a really great and informative teacher. His tests aren't the easiest but you will learn a lot in his class. If I could, I would take this professor for every accounting class. He also puts things into perspective for how it's going to be in the real world.

Comment:

I never had Prof. Aquilino for any classes and I'm very thankful for that. However, he is the Chairman of the Accounting Department and when I wanted to get signed into a closed class he refused me twice. One section was being offered for the Fall! He does not like to help his students. He should be replaced!

Comment:

Look, Prof. Aquillino class isn't an easy one, but if you work hard you will do well. I had him in 2000/2001 and the guy actually gives a damn. I had some of these so-called easy teachers in other classes who weren't motivated to teach and I didn't do as well as I did in Aquilino's class. When all is said and done, you learn a lot.
