Amarjit is a happy guy and seems to want his students to succeed. Besides that, he is an incredibly mistake prone and unknowledgeable professor. There are at least 3-4 typos in assignments, handouts, and quizzes. Keep in mind that this is a calculation heavy class and a typo in the numbers of a question has a tremendous impact.

Great prof. Very respectful to everyone and considers students' concerns when giving assignments. In class, he explains the topics pretty well and has clear slides that match the textbook, but you still need to read and practice with the textbook to do OK. Class average must be in the 70s, so expect a hard Midterm or Final with easy assignments.

He's a good professor in the sense that Finance requires alot of math, so he gives you the practice you need but because of that he rushes through his slides. If you read the textbook and practice with the questions and homework he provides, you will do fine. He just teaches a very difficult course and it's all about practicing.

I had the honour to have a class with Amarjit. He has an amazing memory and remembers students names. He is caring, knowledgeable, and good at making a balance between lecture and practice parts. He works so hard to prepare the material. Tip - Please attend the classes and follow the material. Looking forward to take some more class with him.

Showing up to all the classes, you will know a good chunk of the final exam. In his classes, you will do lots of exam preparation, which truly does help. As many are aware, his slides are very dense, however if you enjoy the facts and want to read further his slides are an excellent choice. Professor Gill really does want to see you succeed.

I think it is fair to say his class is HARD. To say otherwise would be a lie. A-lot of his questions on the exam were ambiguous so unless your good at that, its hard to do super well (some I would say are plain dumb). That said, he provides a good amount of prep material so if you spend the time and so all prep, you can crack out a 90+.

Honestly this course isn't hard but there's just so much material to cover that doesn't flow together nicely. However, Amarjit gives lots of practice and it easy to receive an 80 or more on any graded assignment or test. I find the tests are hard theory wise but Amarjit makes it easy to get practice in and get a good grade.

Professor Gill is the worst professor I have had in my university career thus far.

You'll get a 80% on the group project no matter what. Easy to moderate midterm & blowout hard final - no amount studying can help you on the multiple choice.
