Comment:

One of the friendliest professors ever. Terrible at teaching, but an amazing friend and person to talk to. Yea you will have to teach yourself everything, but you will with the other professor that teaches this course as well. Would you rather have an extremely boring class, or a fun class? This class with him is fun and he's a great guy.

Comment:

Dr. Cheh will make you laugh from time to time with his odd jokes and sense of humor. 83% of our grade is based on tests where you memorize multiple choice questions from the CD test bank. Just memorize these and pass. If you want to learn something and retain it, you have to do so on your own time.

Comment:

His accent and quiet voice take a few classes to get used to. Read the book & look over the chapter quizzes / sample exams because he uses like 40% of the sample questions in the actual exams. Do all the projects in class or take good notes while he goes over them. Very kind and means the best. Also offers some extra credit on exams and projects.

Comment:

Had him for Spreadsheet and it was the worst class I have ever taken. He is impossible to understand and goes on rants about thing that don't pertain to the class at all. He offers to"tutor" you and help with the homework after class but will show you how to do things incorrectly and then gives you F's. WORST professor I've ever had.

Comment:

Not a good teacher. In order to well on the exams, READ THE CHAPTERS FROM THE BOOK. Make sure you understand all of the definitions. Study the practice test as well. A lot of questions come from there but not enough w/o reading. Try to do the best you can on exams because it is difficult to bring your grade up in his class. Attendance is for points

Comment:

I had him for Accounting Systems and Internal Control. Thick accent, quiet, takes points off projects if you ask for help, and shows up 10-15 min late for class. Off-topic during lectures and is fascinated with robots. The only thing I learned in there (no joke) is that I have nice hair, I'm a genius, and have a "Star Wars" sounding name.

Comment:

lectures rarely have to do with class, he basically just wastes entire lectures talking about topics irrelevant to class, you basically have to teach yourself, he deducts points if you need help on projects which involve software that is new and complicated.

Comment:

The only thing useful to your career that is taught in this class is SAP and this is the only thing he refuses to teach. Many jobs want people that have experience in this program and he make you teach yourself and deducts for asking for help. Class seems easy until the SAP and final combo levels you out.

Comment:

ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. Attendance is required but he rarely, if ever, talks about anything relevant to the class. Homework assignments are difficult, mostly because you are not taught how to properly do it. I only studied the sample quizzes and did okay. If you dont want to learn anything but still get an okay grade, take this class.

Comment:

VERY thick accent, does not speak clear english, hard to understand. Reads directly from the powerpoints. Memorize the practice quizzes and you pass. Don't expect help on the SAP projects, he deducts points for getting help from him or his assistant.

Comment:

Dr. Cheh is a great example of a wonderful person and a terrible teacher. If you like spending thousands to listen to someone read power point slides in broken English then Cheh is the teacher for you. He may be very nice and sometimes funny, but if you want to learn something I suggest taking another professor.

Comment:

He gives pre-exam quizzes that make the test exponentially easy. If you attend class, he'll help you a lot and gladly clarify anything. Heavy accent, but you get used to it. Class material was easy because of the overlap and growing up around tech. Nice guy, straight-forward rules. Difficult not to learn something from him.

Thick accent, so sit near the front. You don't need the book if you study the powerpoints and other notes. Don't waste over $100 on a book you don't need!

You don't need the book. Its super expensive and I never opened it. All you need to do is study the practice quiz questions and you are good to go.

DR. Cheh is an awesome person. His class is boring though, power points, everything that you can read on springboard. That being said, his tests are based off his pratice quizzes. Do the HW and extra credit and you'll get an A, skip the extra credit and you'll get a B. Put some effort into the class though.

Really funny and a really good person, but a terrible teacher. I learned nothing in the class and the tests are based entirely on practice quizzes. Easy grade but he teaches nothing.

Comment:

Going to class is such a waste of time with this guy. You won't learn a thing because he just regurgitates information from the textbook on PP slides provided by the publisher.
