Applebaum is very helpful. He tells you what you need to know and if you do what he asks you will get an "A". He really cares about every student.

Professor Applebaum is an excellent teacher. He wants all his students to do well. If you do what he tells you to, it is very easy to get an A.

He is very funny. We have fun in his class and he offers very helpful advice. He tells you what's gonna be on the test. And like any class, you do have to study. I wish I had him for Acctg I.
HE IS THE BEST ACCOUNTING PROFESOR IN BCC. HE MADE THE CLASS INTERESTING AND VERY CASUAL.
He is a great teacher! He is experienced & he cares a lot about his students. In his lessons, he bypasses all the uneccesary crap & teaches you only the things ought to know. He's funny & always open if you need to ask him any questions.
A man who truely loves what hes doing by teaching others. I wish I could have him for all my other courses. Do what he says and asks of you and you should be set. It's not hard material but just do what he says and asks. I can't stress it enough. You do that and you got a B or an A.
i cant believe what an excellent professor i stumbled across. he makes accouting something that i wanted to learn, i never missed a class and actually looked forward to his class he does everything in his power to help his students pass. he never says no, even when he should. take him!
If all the professors were like him this would be a better world!!!!! I took him for all my accounting classes, i learned more than i thought i would. His passion for teaching is what makes his classes worth taking. He's beyond BROWARD COMMUNITY COLLEGE and he still comes back to teach us. THANK YOU MR A!!!
One of the best teachers I have ever had in my education life...Best one at BCC!!!! THANK YOU
This is one of the best teachers i have ever taken in my life, he tells you exactly what is comming on his test... if you fail his class if because you want to..TAKE THIS TEACHER TRUST ME HE IS THE BEST.. easy "A"
This is one of if not the best teachers at BCC... he is easy to talk to and answers any question that you have... trust me take this class and do exactly as he tells you to...and i promise you will leave this class with an "A".. oh and he is funny... what ever class you see his name ...take it...thanks again PROF
He is a very nice person. I had to stuggle through his class. Makes little time for his students.Teacher knows his stuff but if you don't get it the first time he explains it to you.Your ****ed! cause no one else will.Oh yah he is not an easy "A" unless you have an accountant near by.Grading system is fair you get what you deserve.Good luck!
He is NOT a great teacher but he is funny in his own weird way.
awesome!!!
Good teacher, very clear, if need help again and going over something again - just ask - gives office hours and extra time to go over any questions, homework, or even problems in life. Kept accounting interesting and fun. Great teacher, dont take anyone else for accounting. Study for his class with notecards and ur set
Great teacher. Final is optional because it replaces lowest test grade. Most don't have to take final because they already have an A. Nice guy, easy and fun class, attendance isn't required, and tests are easy enough.
He's the best professor ive had at bcc, im not at FIU, and all the professor there are "ok" Prof Applebaum is a good teacher, i highly recommend to take his all accounting courses with him
If you take 'the Baum' and have notes from his lectures--you have the test. If you don't pay attention and take his 'hints' seriously, then you miss out. He is a fantastic instructor - a rarity at BCC-he teaches because he ENJOYS it.
I TOOK IT DURING SUMMER SESSION 3 (LESS THAN 2MONTHS CLASS) SO I WAS WORRIED BUT IT WAS PIECE OF CAKE... HIS GREAT AT EXPLAINING AND WILLING TO EXPLAIN TILL YOU UNDERSTAND. HE DOES GOOD TEST REVIEW. BUT ITS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO ALL YOUR HOMEWORKS AND COME TO CLASS EVERYDAY THAN YOU'LL PASS WITH AN EASY A..TAKE HIS CLASS!!!! YOU WONT REQRET IT :)
Great Teacher! I took his online accounting course and it was great. Very helpful to the students and very interactive. I would highly recommend taking him.
He is a great teacher and is there for what ever help that you need. i took him online and i would recomend it to anyone
Awesome teacher! The best at teaching you what you need to know. A+
very good teacher, if you study what he teaches you will do fine on the test. if your a cute girl the tests will be even easier for you.
He deserves the pepper
Awesome Professor!! One of the best a BCC! You have to READ and STUDY, but he is very honest about the material he tests you on. Work hard and he gives you what you earn. A rare professor who remembers what it was like to be a college student. He's smart and funny...Couldn't ask for anything more.
Very structured and thorogh class. There are no suprises. If you study what your told to you should pass with ease. Instructor is also very personable with students and tries to keep a heavy subject light and entertaining.
Awesome teacher!!! I recommened for all accounting classes.
He's pretty hot
Dude! This guy is probably the best accounting teacher out there! I really recommend him for all accounting classes. The only thing is is that if you want to do well in the class you really need to study for the tests!! He is always willing to help and is more like a friend than a teacher!He also drops the lowest test grade! =0)
Ok, he so does not look like golum (from lord of the rings 2, hehe). He's an awesome professor, with funny anecdotes all the time. If you can handle a good laugh and making light of a typically boring class....he's the professor for you. I've already signed up for managerial with him next semester
HE IS THE BEST ACCOUNTING TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD. HE DOES EVERYTHING THE RIGHT WAY, HE TEACHES AND EXPLAINS ALL THE TOPICS UNTIL U UNDERSTAND. ALSO BECAUSE OF HIS TEACHING SKILLS U WILL END UP WITH AN A OR B. THIS CLASS IS NOT HARD BUT YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION AND PRACTICE ALL THE FORMULA
THIS IS THE BEST ACCOUNTING PROFESSOR, HE IS VERY HELPFULL AND WILL EXPLAIN WHATEVER YOU NEED UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND. I ACTUALLY STARTED LIKING ACCOUNTING BECAUSE OF HIM. BUT YOU HAVE TO STUDY FOR THE TESTS. WILL NEVER FORGET HIM.
I LOVE THIS MAN!!!! He is the BEST accounting teacher at BCC, he makes accounting tolerable and even interesting! Pay attention in class and study what he tells you to study and you'll do great. I just finished taking accounting 3 with him, I am really going to miss you Mr Applebaum! You are the best!
Funny ****! Makes the intolerable subject tolerable!! Always has great stories to tell and makes you feel like he's one of us. Study hard though, and come to class, it's accounting for crissake!!
i love him ,he is the best teacher i have ever seen
This teacher is awesome! I learned so much and retained the information. He is high energy and fun. I enjoyed both classes I took with him.
Great Teacher
Excellent Professor. I took his 8-week fast paced online Accounting class. There was a lot of homework, but the tests were easy and open book, and as long as you keep up there is absolutely no reason you won't get an A. He's very quick to respond to your questions and is very helpful. The book is good read too.
His profesionalism shows, his subject knowledge is evident. Highly recommend him for any ACG class.
very good teacher, knows his shtuff, hes also very funny and im pretty sure he has ADD, just mention his daughters and ull see, but overall no surprises on the tests, he lets you know exactly what to study, gives some extra credit. tWO THUMBS UP!
perfect professor, I had him for two classes and I never regretted it.
Excellent Professor!! I took him for all three accounting classes. A lot of homework, but you'll learn alot. Study what he tells you to study and the test the test should come clear to you.
Excellent professor! very easy classs.. reviews exactly what is going to be on the tests. homework is online. I took him for one class and wanted to sign up for the next.. but his classes get full so fast! overall a fun class , with an easy A and good material to learn.
This Professor is the best Professor at BCC...The subject is kinda hard, but he makes it clear and fun!! The only downside of this class is lots of H/w which only makes you understnad it even better!!
THIS PROFESSOR IS THE BEST!! HE MAKES EVERYTHING CLEAR AND EASY FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND. THE SUBJECT IT SELF IS PRETTY HARD BUT HE MAKES IT INTERESTING AND EASY..... A+++ ALL THE WAY
Great professor! He loves teaching and does and awsome job! It is not an easy subject and you have to study hard to get an A. He is the best professor I had at BCC till this day.
He is an excellent professor, very clear, you will understand everything in this class. BUT he won't give you a curve. If you get 79.5, he will post a "C". That's sucks
Took him for accounting 1, one of the easiest As ever. He tells you EXACTLY what will be on the test. You have to be...well, not the smartest to get below an A in his class.
Accounting is not fun! and i do not recommend taking the blended class! Mr.A is nice, and he thinks hes funny, so its an entertaining class but its not easy, dont expect to get an easy A. Its a class u really have to attend and spend alot of time on.
For the online class, its alooot of hmwrk that requires time dedication to get it done, you HAVE TO DO IT not only for the points but also to be able to understand the course... its not an easy subject! Don't expect to get an A if your no genius, no extra credit but if you need to take this class I would recommend this teacher!
These people below me obviously arent very smart...take this guy for an easy A in accounting if you have at least half a brain! Easier then health, no joke.
Great professor. Gets off of topic a little too much but he tells you everything you need to know on the test for an easy 'A' or high 'B'. I got an 'A' in his class but it wasn't an easy 'A'.It's a lot of work but if you dedicate time to study and do the homework you will pass no doubt.
Excellent teacher, best teacher in bc and in the accounting department. Study and you will do good.
HES THE BEST!!! I knew accounting wasnt going to be the greatest class but he makes it fun! Really funny and cares about your grade. Tells you exactly whats on the test but you HAVE to study and do the hw. So upset hes not teaching ACG2011 :(
To take the online course you better know basis of accounting already otherwise you are going to have a very hard time with this course..he doesn't explain anything and if you ask he gives hints that confuse you even more..all he does is take off points, but to pass its not hard. For an B or better I don't recommend his online course.
He is a great teacher, he knows his subject.. i took his class online. but he try to be clear,i recommend him
He's a good teacher, but he constantly strays from the topic..The tests are somewhat hard since he goes through each chapter fast.
He is a GREAT professor!! He is funny, he knows his stuff and he knows how to teach!! take him =) you wont regret it!
I cannot say how he manages his lecture courses because I wouldn't know: took both fully online but these I have to honestly do not recommend at all!! Run away/drop ASAP: no support, no encouragement, no advices -no nothing! Ugh I've previously taken other online courses and even a writing courses had much more support and guidance. TERRIBLE!
I disagree with the last post. Took online accounting 1. He gave you outlines for each chapter and notes for hard topics. Responds very quickly to email and posts. Also gave a test outline that covered everything on the test. The class was VERY hard I got a B and worked real hard. I would only recommend it if you have a lot of time to study.
The Guy is the best teacher Ive ever had. Although he can go off topic he never just talks about crap, he talks about interesting things that apply to the real world. u can tell he wants u to pass and he answers ur questions without being a smart ass. Also he's funny as hell. This teacher is so RAW!
***This is the real truth about this class. Professor Applebaum is a great teacher, I just finished taking his winter fast track class and yes I did get a good grade however, it was a HARD earned grade. He doesnt give out answers, he simply tells somethings you should expect to see on the test. It is NOT an easy A you have to work really hard.
This professor is a very good professor, he knows his stuff and he is fair. You will have to earn your grades, He is not easy but if you study and do your HW, you should be ok. If Anyone says he is easy, they are either already an accoutant or extremly samrt, because you have to work hard to get good grades.
Great Professor...Mr.Applebaum is very knowledgeable in all areas of Accounting. I would recommend anyone to take his class. Not much work.
not only is he a great professor he's an amazing person. he makes class enjoyable and fun. if u take him for fast track 3 hours in the same boring accounting class is torture. but not with him. he tells stories and relates things 2 real life. hes the best. his grading is very fair. there are no surprises. very smart as well. great guy!
Keeps class very entertaining. Very clear n how to do work. If you do homework tests are easy. Got an A and did not have to try that hard
Great teacher. Attendance not mandatory but for your own sake don't miss a class. be there for the the reviews. He drops the lowest test grade. If you do good on his tests you dont have to do the final. Tells you your grade right after the test. doesn't give back the test to everyone so you can see where you went wrong you have to ask. fair grading
Applebaum is one cool guy and knows his material. The class can and will be dreadful. Accounting is not easy. Homework online is very tricky, the textbook will not teach you lesson plans if you read.. ive tried. The tests in the class are fair, not easy/hard so studying is a must. Overall, this is your best bet for ACG2001 compared to other prof's.
good professor just make sure you study and do your hw fairly easy grade
Prof Applebaum is a fantastic teacher. I took the online course. His syllabus was extremely clear and spelled out exactly what you needed to do. He's very helpful and even took time one weekend to meet with me and go over my tests.He's very fair, if you do your part and study you can't fail.
He is a very nice teacher ,he breaks down all the material and the best thing is that he tells you what is going to be on the test to make it easy on you. NICE person also, very funny and make you laugh....It's a fun class, not boring at all.
He is a very nice teacher ,he breaks down all the material and the best thing is that he tells you what is going to be on the test to make it easy on you. NICE person also, very funny and make you laugh....It's a fun class, not boring at all. But hey you got to study if you want to pass, don't be lazy.
Great teacher... Does a thorough test review before the test... Cares about his students... No complaints with him at all... The text and online homework are a bit confusing and they don't really follow a specific order... Its weird... When you take the class you'll know what I mean..
BEST TEACHER EVER!!!! This teacher helped me fall in love with accounting!!! He makes the subject beyond interesting!!
HE IS AWESOME AND CARING ABOUT HIS STUDENTS! TAKE HIM!
I took the online course and received an "A". It was the first time I took an online course, but it was easy after getting the hang of it. Do not buy the book online as you need a special online code to access the homework section. He is a bit sarcastic, but will promptly answer your questions.
This prof was on point. had us ready for each test, was crystal clear on what to do, answered all questions quickly. i took his online class and would recommend it to anyone.
Funny guy, he is very sarcastic and makes class fun and keeps you attentive. Easy to follow, very helpful, Great teacher. Tests are more memorization cuz he gives a very thorough review with all q's that will be included. Hard to fail. Pay attention, do hw, and u will ace class. Attendance not mandatory and you will learn a heck of a lot.
Took him for online intermediate. Hard class! Professor was very responsive and explained things well. No extra credit. Good discussions.
Great teacher. Directly tells you everything thats going to be on his tests. Uses real world examples and personal experiences from the business industry to clarify the concepts of this course. One of the most awesome professors at BC for suuuuure.
GREAT teacher, you must put an effort into class. He's extremely fair. I've taken him for both ACG2001 & ACG2002 both fully online and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone. I returned to college after 10 years and was worried about online classes. I achieved B's in both sections w/ Prof Applebaum.
he talks too much about himself. In a 2 hr class. .75 is about his favorite tv show or the jokes he heard that morning on the radio. Totally irrelevant topics. Students sit there like; dude! we have a test coming up. Shut up and teach! I had a hard time passing this class. Maybe online he's better.
He's okay.
Pretty sarcastic. Can get sort of annoying at times but overall an above average teacher. Sometimes fun. Sometimes goes off on a tangent for a while. Take him, since the other accounting teachers are no better.
Prof. Applebaum teaches accounting clearly. If you want to do accounting as your career, then take Prof. Applebaum. If you just go to college for the pell grants, take someone else so you don't waste a spot in the class.
Amazing professor! He needs to teach Managerial Accounting! The business dean definitely needs to allow him to teach Managerial Accounting!! If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to take Professor Applebaum definitely do it.
Online course is time consuming with SEVERAL assignments due each week, which includes discussions, assignments (2 do in word&excel),Quizzes (cant see what you got wrong), and Connect HW assignments that are EXTREMELY time consuming. The class is do-able but don't take this class if you have another class that requires a lot of time and effort.
Awesome..he is also a CPA and KNOWS what he is talking about because he earns his living by it. Took him for both ACG2001 and ACG2011 and I am holding out to take Managerial until he teaches it. (Hopefully by summer, since it's the last class I need to graduate.)DEFINITELY take this professor! Very Helpful and cares that his students do well.
Excellent Teacher. He makes class fun and attentative. He gets everyone involved, and makes you look forward to going to class. The work is intensive, especially Learnsmart. But overall he makes learning fun. I would strongly reccommend him to anyone taking accounting.
Love the professor he is always willing to help and answers immediately. I took the class online. A lot of work towards the end but it was a great class and I learned a lot.
He is the best professor I've ever had. Hands down. I've never wanted to go to class before. I went to FIU for 4 years and I never had a professor as fun and interesting as Applebaum. It was so easy to learn in his class. Lots of homework from Connect, but with a little time management it's nothing to complain about. Take his class!
TAKE HIM, HE'S AN AWESOME TEACHER!!! Took this class on-line. The only reason why I received a C was because I missed some of the assignments. I don't like numbers but after taking this class with him, I like it a little more.
Applebaum is the best accounting teacher at broward college. I took him for accounting 1,2, and managerial. I got A's in all three classes. He makes the material easy to understand, he has his own CPA firm so he actually knows what he's talking about. Impossible to fail i was pessimistic about accounting at first but he changed my attitude 100%
The best prof. ever! just finished taking him in summer a. Got an A in his class. Makes class so much fun, and hes a funny, laid back guy. He only teaches cuz he loves to teach. (hard to find a prof like that) has his own CPA firm, so he knows what he's doing. A+++ teacher. Take him, you won't regret it! Just do your connect HW
AWESOME TEACHER! You will not regret taking him. He explains everything crystal clear and if you need help he is more than willing to help you with anything! Took him in class and loved everyday! No final if you get good grades on all tests!
He's a nice dude, makes a lot of jokes. He explains things pretty well and outlines the tests before hand. The subject is hard but if you study and do the homework you will definitely get a good grade. He has ADD and gets off track a lot but it's not too bad. Just make sure to do connect and study what he tells you.
Great teacher. Will do anything to help. Connect works ok. Tests are hard if you don't study. Talks fast but repeats everything when asked.
I took online class, i recommend this professor,answers questions fast connect isok,quizzes,discussions, assigments are easy too, but exams are hard , you have to study, you can get an easy A
Very good professor. Speaks slowly and clearly, and repeats himself for emphasis. Funny guy, has some good jokes in class. Basically, if you want to get an A or B in accounting and you have good study habits, take him, because he tells you exactly what you need to know for the tests.
The best accounting teacher at BC! Very knowledgeable (owns a CPA firm) and passionate about the subject matter. He really cares about his students and wants you to do well. He gives you an outline for every chapter online and tells you what you should study for the tests.
Fun professor. Makes the fast paced, 3-hour, class interesting for the most part. Always willing to help you. Very honest and wants you to succeed. Uses real world example. Gives excellent test reviews. Drops lowest test grade. Attendance not mandatory but if you want a good grade, I would suggest that you go to class. Lots of connect hw though
GREAT PROFESSOR! He actually knows the stuff he teaches. Doesnt just read off a powerpoint, really wants to help out the students! Lets you use electronics in class, connect hw is very helpful so do all of it! Final is optional if you do good on the first 4 tests or he will drop ur lowest grade if you take the final!
Excellent and fair professor!!! I thought I would never understand accounting, but this was my favorite class. He explains things in a way that made sense. He definitely knows his stuff, very skilled in his profession. Take him!!!
Prof. Applebaum is an amazing professor! He helps you understand everything and gives a thorough review prior to each test. He really wants everyone to pass, it's not an easy class but he makes it so much easier than other horror stories ive heard with professors. A lot of studying is involved but he's great. I strongly reccomend you TAKE HIS CLASS
He is amazing! Super funny and entertaining and makes class super enjoyable! Not hard to get an A just study and do the work online. Other than that just show up to class and enjoy!
He's a great professor but you MUST attend class and take notes in order to pass his class. The tests are unlimited and online if you're taking the blended course, a lot of HW but it helps with tests. 9 quizzes with 24 questions each for each chapter. He stops taking attendance after like the 3rd class.
HE IS A GRAET PROFESSOR AND GIVES SOME TIPS FOR THE REAL LIFE IN ACCOUNTING AS A MAJOR.
He will do his best to help you understand everything. He is extremely understanding and will work with you. He will also relate the material to real life situations (which is awesome). The material itself is difficult so make sure to attend class and pay close attention.
I took ACG 1&2 as blended classes. It was the perfect mix to understand anything I couldn't get online. He made learning fun and really cares that his students know what they are doing. If you do the work you will pass. I wish I could take more classes with him.
I don't write reviews for any professor but especially want to write one for him. He is honestly hands down an amazing teacher. Teaches so well, reviews everything that'll be on the test. Yes, lots of homework to do but its not impossible. Take him, you'll love him! oh, and its funny
Excellent professor. He is accessible, fair, and funny too.
Amazing Professor. Really understands the material and has a ton of real world experience. I actually thought about being an accountant after taking him for ACG2001, ACG2011 and ACG2071. If you apply yourself and DO THE HOMEWORK. you will receive an A.
Excellent Professor. The material can be overwhelming, but he made the class and material extremely easy to understand. Take good notes and read the chapters and you will get an A.
The best of the best!!! You are not going to be able to find a better professor, then this one, definitely take his class!
Prof Applebaum is cool. His lectures keeps you up and he's very enthusiastic. You got to love him. He helps if you need it. Just do your normal accounting work and you'll fine. Easy A, all it takes is effort.
Accounting is a challenging class no matter who the teacher is, but Applebaum is definitely the best at explaining things out and making it easier for students. Gives great analogies and if you go to every class he answers any questions you have and basically gives you the answers to the test.
I made the mistake of taking this online. Broward College's D2L is very scattered. I would miss assignments simply because I couldn't find them or didn't check under discussions and separate website daily. Everything is all over the place and it probably isn't his fault since my other online classes were very scattered and hard to follow aswell.
A good professor, but I won't recommend him to students who are taking another classes or students who work. He is a nice person and good teacher, but his homework are too way long and hard. The way he grade us is ridiculous, it's not help in that part. He knows his subject, but it's a hard class with him. No take him if you are a worker student
A lot of work. Each chapter has one due date so you need to plan. Professor answers questions very quickly. If you do all the work and prepare for the chapter quiz you can get an A in the class. It is easy to fall behind.
This guy knows his material, but the cengage homework is ridiculously long and difficult. He teaches the test which helps, but the homework goes over so much material not on the test its difficult to know how you are doing. He is extremely brilliant when it comes to business and accounting,but probably the most difficult class I have ever taken.
Applebaum makes Accounting fun! He's hilarious, intelligent, highly educated in different kinds of subjects. I'm not an accounting major, but I'm taking all of my future accounting classes with him. If you skip class or don't do your homework, you'll likely fail his class or perform incredibly poorly. His syllabus is clear and the grading is fair.
Amazing experience with him! Looks like there is a lot of home work. This hw is reasonable. Once you get it done you understand how easy it was! This class requires a lot of time to study. Listen everything that he says and write it down it will be on your test. No tricks or surprises, buy book from bookstore with code.
I took this class not knowing what to expect, on the first day of class professor Alan told us what was expecting of us another to pass the class. He is a great professor we need more like him to teach in Broward College. If you are a lazy person who wants free A you will not understand his teaching but if you are looking to learn take him!!!!
Wow! You sure don't find too many professor who cares like professor Alan does. This is the kind the professor I like, he pushes you to do better, to go the extra miles by showing your true potential. If you put in the work You get an A I recommend him any time, as a matter of fact i'm taking ACG2011 and ACG2071 with him. Hes the best at Acct.
You will never find a better professor that will teach to the test. You will also be allowed to record his test reviews for every single test. He is very helpful depending on the student. If you are an A student he will pay attention to what you are saying, if not, prepare yourself to be rejected and ignored. +favoritism toward certain gender .
Listen up, if your expecting to breeze through a class.. THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. The homework is extremely LONG, im talking about 4 to 5 hours. There would times where I wanted to give up.I would not suggest taking if you have other hard classes to take care of. Must have open scedule when taking this teacher, trust me! don't wait till last min for hw
THE BEST PROFESSOR, THE BEST HUMAN ON EARTH!! he does care about you and your success! even if you don't need accounting take him for his amazing stories and essential life advice. material is hard. if you ask him to explain he will stop and explain. HW is long, but if you can't do it - you don't know anything. take him. will not regret. do your HW
What!? 4.6? He should have a 5!! He is THE BEST professor ever! I took him for 4 Accounting classes I needed. He is there for you to understand anything you might not so take advantage! His knowledge is very inspiring and will take you far! Because of him, I have learned to love Accounting. Sure it can get hard but you can accomplish it! :)
Prof. Applebaum has to be one of the greatest professors I have ever had throughout my college career, he's funny, down to earth, and outright cares about your grade. He made accounting interesting and fun and always helped out whenever help was needed. I'm taking him again surely for every accounting class that's to come. Don't debate it, pick him
This class is the hardest and most time consuming class I've taken. I'm a 1st year college student and just finished ACG2001 with an A.I would recommend him to others, he understands that ACG2001 is hard for many and will do what it takes to try and get you to understand the material. The homework is online and requires 5 hrs but definitely do it.
Loved this teacher! He always answers any questions during class - quickbooks. He is very approachable!
This professor is awesome, he really knows his stuff and is very good at helping you understand. The class honestly is not hard but the homework on Cengage is very tedious and is mainly busy work. You have plenty of time to do. I have an A so far and will most likely pass with an 95+ you do have to buy Cengage 120$. Def take him well worth it
I took this class in the fall semester. It was one of the easiest online class i ever took. All the test are online. No proctored exams. There are discussion, but they are not very hard. If you spend time doing all homework, it's and easy A class. I would love to take this class again
Except Managerial I took all the ACG with him in person and online. He doesn't give away points. He has great study guides, answers his emails promptly and the online homework, lessons, discussion, tests, well organized and will assist you if you were troubled to handle all the online process. Classes in person are engaging, and real life examples.
Best accounting teacher at BC. I decided to become an accounting major after the first accounting class i took. He explains everything perfectly and makes sure you understand before moving on. I took ACG 1 &2 and Managerial with him and got A's. If you don't pass with him you should probably change your major.
He's wonderful I took it blended so that's where it hurt me. I just despise cengae .. But he's great . I had family trouble so that's why I didn't perform well in the class. But he's very understanding. I would take him again.
Honestly this teacher is fine I took it blended online so I had to do Cengage. Expect to teach yourself the material. I think I am reconsidering becoming an accountant haha. You never have to show up to class. Only like 6 people including myself do.
Taking him now and it really is all about time management. Cengage takes up a lot of time (3 hours on the low end, 5-6 hours on the high end) so prepare for it accordingly. Discussion every chapter as well as online test, which is usually pretty hard.
Great teacher. He replied to my emails right away, and would send reminder emails when assignments were due. Also, sent handouts for the tougher chapters. I would definitely take him again.
Amazing funny professor. Not an easy class but he makes it enjoyable and is willing to help and answer all questions. 4 test plus homework. do not skip his lectures and put in atleast an hour of studying a day and you will pass with an A or B.
Great professor. Cant go wrong if you choose him. Attendance not mandatory but you could get lost if you dont attend. Took him for both ACG1101 and 1102 blended. Easy to reach if you ever have homework questions.
Love this professor! Class was fairly simple, mostly work on Cengage. You do have to do 1 discussion question per chapter but it helps you understand the material more. You also have to respond to two other students discussions. This is a great professor, he really cares about his students success. If you have any questions you can email him.
He is so kind, he always answers your questions and concerns so promptly. He is a very easy grader and makes the class so much easier to work with. Since it was all online, you just need to log on to do your HW and Tests on Cengage and discussions on bconline. He's incredible, you can't go wrong with him! One of the best accounting profs ever!
I took this professor based on the reviews from here. Although is he very nice, he does not help you at all. If you email him for help he explains it to you the same way the book does and always refer you to a tutor. I know that online classes are always harder but Ive always managed to do good. Just choose wisely before taking him.
I don't know how this prof has such good ratings. He emails non stop but his syllabus had all the due dates wrong so I planned ahead in vain. You can't work ahead because chapters are closed until a week before they are due. He takes off petty points in discussions. Would not take again or recommend. I still got an A but my acc 1 prof was better.
Good professor. Answers emails and questions quickly. Syllabus did have errors but was corrected the third day of class. Lots of emails but all had important information. 2 to 3 hours of work each week. Do all the discussion, easy points. Got an A better than my acct 1 prof.
According to the syllabus there is 25 points extra credit but we only received 10. Did not reopen assignments/discussions to give you a chance if you missed anything as most online profs do. The tests were HARD no matter how much I studied. The problems would be completely dif than the classwork. Syllabus had wrong due dates. Do not recommend him.
If you want a professor that gives you fast and detailed feedback; have all his expectations, assignments, and due dates in the syllabus from the beginning of the class; post your grades as soon the assignments are closed; understanding and ready to help chose professor Applebaum. He gave us extra credit points and also extra credit opportunities.
Professor Applebaum is an awesome professor that cares about his students. He gives extra credit to help you because some of the chapters are very difficult. He is responsive to your emails. I love this professor and wish I could take him for ACG2110.
would take this class 100x again. he gives feedback and grades proctored tests with curves. love this guy.
I was nervous about taking this class but Professor Applebaum was a real gem. Hes very responsive and helpful. Whenever I had a question or an issue with MyLab he was attentive and replied quickly. A lot of homework but it gives you great practice for tests and theres an (optional) extra credit exercise for every chapter!
Nice professor but prepare to do alot of work and learn on your own. I dont recommend if you have a full time job or have kids. The tests are worth most of your grade, everything else is worth less points but there is extra credit worth a little bit of points. its definitely an intense fast paced course for a shorter session
didnt have much help throughout this class to be honest. HW was not worth enough points and some had a mandatory quiz at the end which counts towards the grade. discussions are like mini essays, u have to reply to two people and points can be taken off for petty reasons. i mean come on, were in a pandemic! this class should be half the price
Prof Applebaum is nice and responds to emails super quickly. Just prepare for a lot of work; this is a class that you need to invest time in. But its definitely passable!
Class is all on labs. Nine chapters in total with a test at the end of each chapter, three of which are proctored. Lots of homework, and sometimes it would get repetitive and boring, but that is about the hardest part of the class. Exams were easy, proctored exams were the hardest. Provides extra credit for every chapter. Will take again forACG2011
When I had left three chapters to complete I received an email from the professor saying how hard I should work on those three chapters in order to get an A. Isn't that wonderful? He even sent me the calculations. I was pretty impressed by this.
Professor Applebaum is very nice and he keeps you updated through the class. He is strait forward, you will have to read a lot but if you get stuck he answers your questions in a timely manner.
professor a was great.
Amazing educator! Take his class, you won't regret it.
Professor A is awesome! He is everything you'd want out of a math professor. Class is difficult and homework is SUPER time consuming! Everything is done on MyLab, 9 chapters, 2 homework assignments per chapter, a chapter quiz, and an extra credit assignment. 3 quizzes are proctored. Professor A is understanding and accommodating for tech issues!
