Any time you ask her a question, she talks to you like you are completely useless. She has ridiculously high expectations of papers and will take off WAY too many points for one thing being incorrect. Also, she is a stickler for spelling, punctuation, and grammar, even though hers was terrible. Avoid taking her classes if you can.

Shows very little interest in preparing for class consistently reading from the slides and finding errors on previous years questions. Consistently shows up 10-15 min late for class (Keeps you late). Blames department for testing method (Blue Book Essay) and takes at least 2.5 weeks to return a graded exam. Unprofessional, avoid like the plague.

It's accounting, so it isn't going to be easy. However she does make it somewhat easier to understand by explaining the material in ways that relate to us students. If you print out the slides from Blackboard, then you really don't need to buy the textbook. She is very helpful and wants her students to succeed. Hard to get a B, but a C is possible.

She is AWFUL! Rude in responding to emails.Tells you things in class that won't pertain to the test but when you ask about them later she tells you she doesn't know&to ask a classmate. Only half way decent thing about her is that she takes her tests from the study plan on MAL. So if you do the 200 questions from that you will see a few on the test.

She is very nice and funny, but by far one of the worst teachers I have had yet. She rarely explains herself and uses too many abbreviations. When the time comes to review for a test you feel completely unprepared. She jumps from subject to subject.

Worst teacher I've ever had. She is so useless when you ask her a question, she'll answer around your question & leave you even more confused than before. The only way to actually pass this class is constantly doing the practice problems on MAL before the exam or getting previous semesters exams of HERS And studying off of that. TAKE ELROD OR BING!

When your professor tells you on the first day of class that 45% of the class drops or fails, I find that to be discouraging. She goes over her entire PPT during class, works a few problems out and continues to the next PPT. We have different views on what a "review" is. She blurts out areas to focus on and that's it.

Most to all of the students failed the first two tests with averages in the 30-40 range and she doesn't curve. Don't expect her to have sympathy either.

ACCT is hard, but prof McLeod is super passionate, even if she isn't always covering stuff relevant to exams & quizzes. There is just a lot of content in this course and McLeod moves fast but there are resources like SI to help you succeed. Renee (SI) was amazing and her exam reviews were super helpful. Go to Renee's sessions and you'll pass.

The people saying that Professor McLeod is awful, are the one's who wanted her to give out free 100's. Yes, the class is difficult, but McLeod really helps her students. Her lectures are clear, and if you have a question she will answer is throughly. She gives out candy if you answer questions, and is the best professor I've had at UNT.

Accounting 2010 is not an easy course first off. You have to work hard to get a good grade and professor McLeod was very accessible and the SI sessions were very helpful. The class was very organized and ran very smoothly.

Accounting 2010 is very hard, and there are a lot of homework as well as quizzes. She does a great job at being efficient for the lectures and gives many useful examples for many of the problems. Attendance is factored into the grade, but she does gives easy questions as well as freebies. She has a lot of resources to help struggling students too.

Being an entry-level ACCT course, she has a 'sink-or-swim' attitude about the course, though it is obvious she does care about the welfare of the students. The majority of grades are through online quizzes/tests, which are near impossible to do well on if you skip her lectures. Her review sessions are vital, and she more than shows her knowledge.

She is a great teacher. her lectures are vital to succeeding in the class. She cares for students' grades and wants them to do their best. She has great resources for tests and attendance is mandatory for Iclicker grades but you don't want to miss it anyway. This class is hard with any professor but I'd choose her again if I had the choice.

For all 4 of the normal exams, the review was so helpful, as was going to the SI sessions. The professor made the class very enjoyable and related material to real life. I made an A before the final exam and then dropped to a B because of the final. The final is nothing like the 139-question review. You have a better shot napping and praying.

PLEASSSEEEE take any other professor but her. She is very knowledgeable on the topic but unfortunately can not teach. She claims to be understanding but is not at all. Prepare to teach yourself all the material. Nothing she says in lecture or emphasizes in the lecture will be on the exam.

A good professor for accounting, just gets a little off topic sometimes in class. The videos in Pearson help a lot with the content and are super short. Attendance is mandatory, if you miss more than 20% of class your grade gets dropped a letter grade. Test heavy, GO TO THE SI EXAM REVIEW!

I would suggest making this teacher your last option if possible. She's a decent teacher but more on the strict side when it comes to assignments being due at 4pm and not allowing you to complete late assignments without a real rooted reason. She's strictly there to be a professor. There's a small amount of generosity from her but that's about it.

RUDEST, inconsiderate professor I have ever had. Her lectures don't match up at all with the homework or exams. She failed me by 69.76%. I never missed one class, attended every SI session, and she still deducted points on attendance and has 0 grace.She gives no extra credit,loads of homework every week on lockdown browser, Do NOT register for her.

She gave me a 0 on my participation in the class even though I told her multiple times that I couldn't participate because the iClicker was glitching out. Is not sympathetic and does not help you succeed.

It has been awhile since I took this course, but I have now decided to go down the accounting path. However, were it for her course alone, I never would have taken another financial accounting class again. She is very knowledgeable, but not good at teaching. I had to teach myself everything in this class. Not the worst, but definitely not the best.

If you can chose any other professor, DO IT! She rushes through all of her lectures and spends a lot of time telling stories that are irrelevant. Her tests NEVER match up with what she lectures about in class. She jokes about people having to retake the class. Quizzes due Monday at 4PM interferes with work schedules. She doesn't accept late work.

Stay far far away from taking this class with Professor McLeod. I had to drop the class do to other reasons but it honestly may have been a blessing in disguise. She knows what she's talking about but doesn't know how to convey it in a way that makes sense to everyone. tells stories that have nothing to do with class.she also is just disrespectful.

She is a horrible professor.. if u are reading this trust me, take this as a SIGN! I'm trying to save you. She is insecure about her teaching so she is super strict and has homework that is recorded and proctored. She blames the students for not doing well. She also belittles students. She hold herself at such high standards its annoying in class.

She is a HORRIBLE teacher. It is very clear that she is really knowledgeable when it comes to accounting but when it comes to teaching it she is not. She is always waisting class time by telling stories that are irrelevant to the class. She told so many stories about her time working at JCPenny that it almost feels like if I had worked there too
