try to teach everything he knows, hard grader, if you accounting major take him
boring class and tricky problems on test, but explain everything
Rambles on and on about his past experiences as CIO and etc.,, HARD grader
Explains everything, very helpful but also very hard if you dont study enough.
I worked hard and did well. He helped me get a good grade.
Good man sometimes funny, but is a very hard grader, with no extra credit work
He is very understanding.
Unfair, I droped his class after the 2nd quiz,needs to retier
A sweet old man, but accounting is hard no matter who teaches it
one of the best acc professors,explains,cares, but you haaaave to study alot.
must take time to study, explains everything, cares for students, nice professor
No Comments
If you want an "A", study! If not, don't expect it.
He expects u to know the subject already, lots homework, very hard.
You have to dedicate HOURS to pasing. But he's a sweet man!
you just have HAVE to study! lotz of hmk, quizzes and GRADES EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
most experienced pof. in pace. lectures are very boring, multiple choice test.
excellent professor, explanes very clearly, makes accounting interesting
He's a very tough prof. Hard tests, no curves
explains yes but passing his tests no and no curves
Great Prof!!! Explains everything well.... do all the homework. Test from book
All the tests are directly from the hw and study guide passing is definite!!!!!!
only the quizes from S.G, tests are hard, covers material too fast, turbo nerd
HE'S THE GUY FROM HONEY I SHRUNK THE KIDS!!!
he's a nice guy, and ur Guaranteed to pass but it's hard- this **** isn'
nice guy but id rather spend a semester in prison
Very helpful sincere man who likes what he does....still makes it pretty hard
Great guy, just study your ass off
Just a great Professor. Knows his stuff.
very helpful professor, explains well, but you have to study alot on your own
if he's so terrible, why are people always fighting to get into his classes???
does not curve,tortures ur mind with his stories and runs on the course
Hilarious!!! Good teacher, just study and you'll do well
Nice person, though very unclear in his thoughts. You'll have to read about 50 pages a week to get a B . Try someone else
He needs to get a life besides ACC
Such a nice professor. Tests are hard only if you don't study as much as you should.
very caring and clear, respects students, has great business experience, wants you to do well, supplies excellent printed notes.
knows his stuff, but the point is that if u know it by the end of the class...class average C
You have to study for the tests and pay attention in class. But who said accounting should be easy…or fun. He explains really well. In the field of accounting this guy is truly a man among boys.
Why is it that people always say, "Oh, Professor so-and-so is ok, but you have to study if you want a good grade"? Is that not the whole point of being in college? How can you expect to pass if you don't study? Oh, and Rabinowitz is
Very good teacher. This class is extremely challenging and requires a lot of effort and reading. His exams are also very tricky and challenging. This course is not for the slacker....requires a lot of reading and effort. Good professor though.
very caring and clear, respects students, has great business experience, wants you to do well, supplies excellent printed notes.
Explains well, but tests are VERY,VERY HARD. You have to study a lot, but you will learn a lot.
Financial accounting is the WORST! But he made it at least bearable. I wish he taught higher level accounting courses.
nice professor, talks slow and clear, everything in his class counts....just do the work and u will be fine...
All I have to say is study, study, study.
WARNING:"Accounting is a very hard class altogether." If youre not gona take it seriously u will most likely do bad. Rabinowitz is a nice person, although he may scare you a bit in the begining. If you think you need tutoring make sure to go.
this guy was unbelieveable hard how could anyone give him a good rating, i don't know about you but i'm not in school to learn i simply want to pass each class with the highest grade possible doing the least work possible(the later being more important)
He is the best accounting teacher to take, makes me want to be an accountant! Very funny too.
Take this Prof b/c he is the best unlike other prof he gives you multiple choice on all his exams (3) and his very nice and always ontime
He's an extremely smart, knows the stuff insideout. Assign a lot of work. Tests are somewhat trick and deficult.
quiz on each chapter which is straight out from the study guide. Average quiz is how many quiz u take dun worry if you skip few theory part of testis from the study guide, cd, quick checks. Problem of the test is from classroom and hw.
One of the best professors to take for accounting. Knows his stuff and has a great sense of humor. One of the few accounting professors who actually give A's.
i dunno how someone who is extremely hard and confusing and uncaring can receive so many good comments from people, those are only from people who suck up, don't believe them, the chances of passing this class are slim to none, DO NOT TAKE HIM, AVOID!!!
If you have him now, drop it like it's hot. He's horrible. He seems to enjoy giving F's. I'll just save y'all the trouble and tell you how he grades. First test is 30%, second 25% and the final is 25%. Quizzes are only 10% and so is HW. Goodluck.
Nobody said accounging is easy and Rabinowitz is the best to take for acc 203, the two comments below are probobaly from the stupid people who always came to class late, never paid attention, cheated on homework and tests, and left the class early.GOFIGUR
Accounting is not an easy class. You have to work hard and study. Make sure you do all your homework and studing for the study guide. He is a hard grader but if you work hard you would be able to pass the class.
Do not take him!He had be teaching this class for the past 20 years.It is hard to understand him and his tests are ........Good luck!!!
Listen, no accounting classes are easy as you think would be. It requires a lot of work. For those people who gave bad comments about this prof. are the ones who never been in class, never paid attention, cheat on homeworks and exams. Get a Life man..
He's a good professor, there are quizzes every week, but their straight from the study guide. Acc is confusing, you just have to pay attention.
dont take him......................
Great prof. gives very good printed notes, quizzes easy to prepare for, review sessions before exams, fair exams. Explains everything clearly. Cares for students.
DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS...... I Once heard he was THE best acc prof. HOWEVER, after taking his class, I decided to switch to the other majors instead of accounting.
He's really nice. His tests aren't that bad, he tells you where the questions come from. Warning you that he will not let the class out early, he takes the full 2 hours.
Overall work load is a lot however it is to prepare you for the exams. Exams may be a little tricky so do not rush through them. His exams are not easy unless you fully understand and study.
i would suggest this class only to accounting majors.. if not, stay away there is no point in doing all this work for a C
such a great person, really helped me out when i needed it.. understanding and will try his best to help you!!!! sweetheart
No matter what Accounting is a difficult course but Prof. Rabinowitz does everything he can to help you understand. You need to do all of your homework assignments (not copying from the library site) and pay attention in class.
Extremely difficult class, I studided so much for this class and wound up getting a C-. If your not an accounting major dont even think about taking him. Even if you are, theres much better professors at Pace than Rabinowitz.
Extremely difficult professor. If you want to be an accountant take him.. if not stay away!!!
Great professor and a nice person, the best for ACC 203. You will learn a lot. He tells you exactly what will be on his quizes and on his exams. If you do the work you will get a good grade. I highly recommend him.
excellent prof. - very fair and very clear in everything.
he is a excellent professor. he teaches eveything clear. if you do all of homework, you will get happy.AAAAAA
how the hell does he have all those smiley faces??? he loves to fail people who show up everyday and do all the work, his tests are impossible to pass cus guess what? HE DOESN'S TEACH ANYTHING!!! just talks about how he takes trips to hawaii, this class is hell, AVOID AVOID AVOID AT ALL COSTS OR YOU WILL BE SORRY!!!!!! HIS CLASS IS A NIGHTMARE
No Comments
A very good and friendly teacher
He helped me see how important accounting will be to my marketing career.
whoever wrote the comment before this one about their gay "marketing career" must be on drugs....ARE YOU FOR REAL??? RABINOWITZ IS THE WORST!!!!!!!
he is the worst teacher, he gives so much homework, for every class, also quizes are at every class. He is horrible! He istalking about his wife all the time and does not teach, Do NOT TAKE HIM!!! TAKE Vincent Barella nstead.
Took him in spring . Had 10 quizzes from a Study Guide containing both Q and A and about 20 problem homeworks during the entire semester. Problems took an average of 1 hour each to do. The quizzes and problems were great preparation for the exams. He did not waste any time in class - always stuck to the subject. He was very clear and patient.
HORRIBLE..........IF YOU WANT TO FAIL TAKE HIM........HE WILL TORTURE YOU UNTIL YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO BREATH ANYMORE.IF DO BAD ON 1 TEST YOU DONT A CHANCE TO GET A GOOD GRADE IN HIS CLASS.
He is a very good professor. If you do all your homework and quizes and study what he tells u to study then you should do well in his class. He is a very nice guy. The quizes are not hard at all,and the theory part of the exam comes stright form the study guide and the cd. the problem part in the exams comes from the hw just diff #'s. great prof.
Fantastic teacher. This class sucks no matter what. It's the subject. Very nice guy, very helpful, clear, patient, and understanding. Funny and cute older man. Much better than Anabila. (don't take anabila)
BAD GRADER. BORING CLASS. NOT VERY UNDERSTANDING.
Okay, you will fall asleep in his class - regardless. That said, he's not a bad professor. He knowns his stuff and tries to help you understand. However, his tests are like nothing I've seen and it takes getting used to. Do homework ontime and study for quizzes. Oh, and READ THE BOOK!
He could not have made the class any easier! Do everything exactly as he tells you to do!! He tells you to do the hw, do it! Study the study guide? do it! very straightforward but does require some work on your part. quizzes, tests and final are straight from your books!! take advantage, duh. could not have been made any easier, seriously.
H O R R I B L E !!!
Follow the text and study guide, do the assignments, not a bad lecturer
Worst teacher in Pace. Dont take him if you want your life to be hell. SUCH A BAD GRADER.
Very fine prof. who is very fair and considerate, gives excellent guidance to get you successfully thru course. Nice person too. Get to know him.
THIS GUY HAS NO RESPECT FOR STUDENTS WHATSOEVER. DO NOT TAKE HIM.
Have to put effort. He will give a quiz every week (10% of grade), comes straight, word for word from study guide. Gives 3 tests, and gives hw every week. He goes fast, so u have to do everything on time to be able to do good. HW problems are very similar to in class problems.
Very understanding .. Very kind.
Good for accounting majors, bad for anyone else. He thinks accounting is your life and if you don't act like it is, you will not do well. LOTS of work.. Even some of the accounting tutors couldn't help me with the homeworks!
Wonderful teacher - nice person.
This guy is a jerk. Thinks he is funny when he cracks those weird warped jokes of his. Dont take him. He gives you so much work and doesnt believe in curving. Takes pleasure in failing people. Who said he was caring? What are they on? Valium?
Class is boring.Usually there's at least 3 people sleeping.Thinks his joke is funny.Quiz every week,homework EVERY class.Earliest he lets you out of his 2 hr class is 5 mins before the end of class.A LOT OF WORK test is average.
Quizzes every week, homework will be given every lesson. I seriously dont understand what he talks about in lesson. He just presumme that we know everything. If you are an accouting major, take him. If not, stay away from him.
I enjoy his dry sense of humor, he does his best to maintain student interest between the material with stories about ACC that relate to life. LISTEN CAREFULLY, he tells you what you need to do in order to do well in his class. Stay on top of the homework, memorize the study guide for quizzes, focus on the 3 exams--they're 80% of your final grade.
Take his class. Homeworks total 20 hours. Questions and ANSWERS for all quizzes and half of each exam come from a study guide. Has good sense of humor.
DO NOT take this class. lectures are long and waste of time. GRADED homework and quizzes given before discussed in class. one of my worst classes at pace.
you need the text book.. he assigns work! ... he is very veryyyyyy neat.. if you study the work you'll probably get b / b+
HE'S SUCH A SWEET AND LOVELY MAN. But, I am failing his class miserably. If you're like me and find it hard to keep up with a heavy workload because you're lazy & fat & would rather watch VH1 than enter journal entries, then do not take him. He's very fair, assigns homework every class unless there's a test, & gives a quiz each week. Funny too.
favors accounting majors, so if youre one, congrats, hes perfect for you. the rest of us will fail miserably
Lectures are long and boring and he never gives any breaks nor lets the class out early. He is a nice man, but he will make you fall asleep because, like every accounting prof, his lectures are monotonous and he just goes over what the books says without really teaching anything. Pretty rough grader, accounting majors take him
No Comments
He is extremely nice and wants you to do well but his tests are IMPOSSIBLE to do well. The most you can do is study for the weekly quizzes and hope you don't fail all of the graded homework assignments.
This is the low down, his tests are hard. You have to study like a week prior to test date or you won't get a decent grade, seriously. 60% of the class is HW and Theory and the questions on the tests are EXACTLY the same questions, verbatum, as the Study Guide, and the questions on the quizes are VERBATUM to the Study Guide. Study the theory (:
The worst professor I have EVER had in Pace. The study guide is the same for the test and the quizzes. Failed almost everyone in class. AVOID IF POSSIBLE!!!
Too many lies are listed on this site for this prof. Hardly anyone failed in his spring classes. A few of my friends got A's. He is a very good prof. TAKE HIS CLASS. If you do a reasonable amount of work you will get a good grade.
Kind and considerate. Gives good advice. Very clear and helpful.
He is the best professor i had at Pace. He tells you exactly what are on his tests. You have to be a complete moron if you fail. Midterm and final are exact questions from the quizzes and homework. Quizzes come from the study guide, its like 20 questions a chapter, I really don't understand how anyone can fail.
He is a really good professor. See, I HATE MATH, I HATE STATISTICS. But if you do your homework and buy the book. You will defiantly get a good grade. The quizzes are exactly as your notes and book and so are the tests.
Acc is hard. He does his best to make sure he teaches his students well. It actually hurts his feelings when students fail tests or the course bc he says he isnt spending his last days(of his life) for his students to fail. Compassionate teacher and he will do anything he can rightfully do in his power to help his students.
He is a really caring, sweet old man. You have quizes once a week which are really easy, and he goes over everything. Class might be pretty boring and the HW is hard, but if you put in the effort you can get a good grade.
very nice, funny teacher. I enjoyed the class.
Yes, Acct. is very hard, prob the hardest class I've taken, but this prof did his best in making everything understandable and he is extremely organized. Make sure you do all the HW and quizzes. Exams are very hard but it is because of the subject, not the teacher. I ended up with a C and am kinda happy about it. Will prob take him for 204.
Thinks the world revolves around accounting. Lots of material, Assigned seating, Lets you exactly what is on the test, and quizzes, mandatory homework, but if you do it all, average a respectable grade and show him care, you pass. I think he rarely fails people. Possible to cheat on tests and quizzes.
Great Professor! Very organized and fast grader. Does his best to make the students understand everything. The study guide allows you to prepare for the theory portion of the exams. The homework assignments allow you to prepare for the math portion of the exams. Overall, I enjoyed this class and truly learned the material.
he is very organized and grades everything as soon as u give it to him....he is the best prefessor, but u have to do the hws since they r half of the exams and you u have a quiz almost every class, but they are so easy.TAKE HIM!!!
HE IS THE WORST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!
TAKE HIM!!! he's incredibly organized and helpful. the class involves a lot of work, but its not hard and he helps you out if you ask. don't miss class and you'll do well. As a plus... he is so nice, you'll actually like accounting after his class
amazing professor. his tests hws quizzes and classwork are all linked, so even though the work is kind of hard, its easy to follow. this guys is amazin, funny, purest nicest professors at pace. even if you dont do well in the class, it is impossible to blame him or dislike him or the class. explains everything thoroughly. take him if you can
This professor is HORRIBLE! I had no idea what he was talking about the entire time I sat through his class, no matter how hard I tried to pay attention. I put in about seven hours of work a week to end up withdrawing. This professor is not for everyone. You really have to want to take the time out to teach yourself the material.
First of all, anyone who thinks Rabinowitz is horrible is just a complete moron!.Hes one of the nicest guys in the world and clearly gives you all the questions and answers that are on the test. It is just up to you to study it. Dont be a lazy moron and you will have absolutely no problem. He also has alot of experience. Easy A if you just study !
I agree. Anyone who says this professor is horrible is a moron!. He is one of the nicest, helpful and most simple teachers I have ever had at Pace. He gives all the answers to his quizzes and tests and prepares you for the hw with in class problems the day of. Take him you wont regret it.
Rabinowitz is BRUTAL. if youre an accountant or have taken accounting before, this class is for you, If youre normal and accounting is new to you STAY AWAY. Because hes been teaching for 30+ years he thinks he can teach as if everything is simple. Long hw every week,quiz every week,exams are absurd. 1to4 correct answers PER problem. AVOID!!!
The HW is INSANEEEEE. I had to bust my head to perform them and they take hrs to do. The quizzes reflect almost 100% the student packet that comes with paces acc book. The test is a combo of what is taught in class, the book and the quizzes. Quiz EACH class. I tried hard to pay attention but its so dull I had to take espressos to stay up
Taking him for the summer was the worst mistake of my life. There are no quizzes, but the midterm was worth 40%, the final was worth 50% and the homework was 10%. It's such ****. Do not ever take him as a summer course.
he gives you everything you need to know but there is just so much information to remember everything for the exams which are super hard by the way. He makes them very tricky.
RUN AND HIDE FROM THIS PROFESSOR! By all means avoid taking him if you can. He makes the class IMPOSSIBLY hard. You have a quiz every week.You get a long hw assignment every class they are always really hard and take hours to do. The class itself is the most boring class EVER. He doesn't teach, just reads from a packet he gives you.
He has a passion for teaching and was himself in the field of accounting. Accounting was never made to be fun or easy but he tries his hardest to make it so.
BORING CLASS..I had to go to tutoring for every homework that he assigned. If you're lazy and don't like to stay on top of things, this class isn't for you.
Whoever said that taking him as a summer course was the worst mistake of your life is absolutely correct. The best advice I could give is to only take him if you're an accounting major. I'm not, and I didn't understand any of the material that was being taught to me, and I felt like it was a waste of time.
He's really good. sure, sometime classes can be extremely boring, because he goes through the materials super slowly. but that's his positive and negative. His class is not an easy A class, but his tests and hws are pretty fair. I would recommand him
Rabinowitz is a good professor to take if you are an accounting major or have had previous accounting experience. You definitely need to pay attention in his class and do the problems multiple times to fully understand them. If not, he will not answer your questions and just refer you somewhere else, as you are "wasting his time."
Great prof. Very organized, clear, fair and helpful.
OMG! He is the best professor in Pace if you actually want to learn about accounting. He is clear and organized. He makes quizzes do simple and the HW is like classwork. I would love to take him again.
Do not take this class if you don't care to lear accounting, or if you're looking for an easy A. It's really hard to listen to a professor early in the morning and if you don't even like accounting. The weekly quizzes are the easiest part of the class bc the questions come straight out of the study guide, word for word.
Don't take this class unless you are an Accounting major!! Seriously... Quizzes are fairly easy (if you study). Tests are brutal and he doesn't teach ANYTHING at all in class. He basically reads from the book. Tests are also worth 80% of the grade and they're brutal. beware of this professor.
Basically if you are an accounting major and really want to learn the concepts and step then this class is for you. He is hard but you will walk away learning alot. But if you have to just take the class to fulfill the business course stay away your stress level will be at an all time high. Take a different professor
