Review from a student who took acc 312
DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!!!! I read all the reviews on pick-a-prof last year...everyone said he is "such a nice guy" and "so grandpa-like"...a sweet old man. Yea, that may be, but this was honestly the WORST class I have ever taken at UT. Homework: due randomly. sometimes he takes it up as a grade, sometimes he doesnt Quizzes: actually has pop quizzes and they aren't easy Tests: you may have heard that he 'makes' the tests, which is possible, but there is absolutely NOTHING on them that you have learned. its one of those teach-yourself classes and that is not easy in accounting. you can study for 5 days and not know a single thing on the test Lectures: he talks his way through a problem, doing about half of it on the board. no one can follow along. he messes up a lot which makes it even more confusing. in an hour and a half he barely makes it through ONE problem from the text Projects: random group projects that no one knows how to do, he picks the group for you too dont take it, i'm warning you now.... my friend took the 8 am class and their test averages were As...ours were failing.
