This Class is HARD & confusing due to all kinds of consolidations of financial statements.

She is way overrated. She's okay in my opinion. Jokes are funny, but they eventually got annoying. Reads directly from the book. Attendance, class participation and HW are ALL mandatory.

No matter how hard you study for her exams, you may still not do well unless you memorize every single theory in the text book and can perform consolidations in your sleep. She is not very specific about what to read in the text book and the material in unbelievably confusing. If you can, take this class with Prof. Statenstein. He's more practical.

You will get a really good grade if you are attentive in Ms. Davids class. I took a lot of notes, did all of my homework, extra credit, participated, and studied my notes every week. She is available all the time, email her, stop by her office. She will HELP YOU! I got a A- in this class, and Im really glad I took her. DO NOT FALL BACK ON CHAPTERS!

Not easy, you have to put in the effort and the work to get a good grade in her class. she does not curve grades either. she checks hw, you have to present hw too

I took this teacher for Acct 102, and she was my best accounting teacher. She is very good at TEACHING, I know many teachers don't actually teach, but she does. She is expressive in her lectures and uses variolous techniques to make sure u understand. Do not be afraid to ask questions. But you must pay attention in class or you may get lose.

I never once made a rate my professor rating in my life, but I had to for this teacher. Tests are worth 80% of your grade including a final wroth 35%. She has 0 consideration of any issues you have and gives no help. "Reviews" aren't really reviews and the test are always worded in the most confusing way possible. Safe yourself the trouble. RUNNN

Professor David is hands down one of the best professors I've had. She does an excellent job of making sure everyone really understands the material. The tests are pretty tough, but they're fair. There's a ton of extra credit opportunities. Overall, a challenging but rewarding class with a professor who genuinely cares about student success.

She great and very caring, teaches in an easy to understand way. makes the content easy to understand. But her tests... omfg its hard as hell. Most of the class failed and average was 47? she didn't curve but gave tons of extra credit and offered extra office hours for 1on1s. its a lotta hw too but i think thats just the major...

Her teaching style is terrible and her tests are super hard. Her reviews were completely useless.
