The most part I can not bear about this professor is unfairness in marking. He assign you a mark at his will and never have supportive information to show why you get that mark. He always say one sentence that "you should do more than what you did".This feedback is useless and unhelpful at all

The most useless teacher I have ever had. Don't go to his lecture or even ask him anything because he will misinform you and go on very long tangents. Just skip his classes and focus on the textbook instead, it will give you way better results.

Man o man. Collier is a much better accounting prof. Conheady talks and talks about nothing and will never finished an example. He puts the solution up in class and just talks about it and then branches off onto other topics. I learn nothing from the professor myself and is frustrating because certain grades need to be achieved and he is not helpin

Terrible. If you're stuck with him, kiss your grade goodbye. He is easily the absolute worst professor I've ever had in both college and university. Incapable of conveying subject matter effectively, no explanation of marking scheme, and just boring. There is nothing I can do to do well in this course, and that's unacceptable.

Worst professor ever. I would highly recommend you take the summer courses to avoid him at all costs. His expectations of students are far to high. Marks go out the door. Midterm was not fair at all. Half of the students dropped out of his course. The average for the class was really low.

The worst prof at Telfer hands down. Lectures are a waste of time as he just goes through problem solutions and slides that aren't even his. The quizzes and the midterm did not reflect anything he taught in class. It was also a huge waste of time studying for the final exam since it was identical to the homework questions. This class sucked.

He is the worst prof at Ottawa u. Boring, doesn't stick to the point, doesn't use his own slides, extremely confusing and doesn't mark fairly at all. Stay away or wait you can't because he's the only one who teaches this course.

He makes it so that you have to teach yourself everything and the course is designed for your failure. Wiley Plus is a joke, when you have a time limit to complete so much stuff, you're bound to fail. Do the Wiley plus with a group and you'll be better off, as long as one person is comfortable taking the loss for the rest of the group.

Worst professor I've had in my 3 years at uOttawa, hands down. Not only is he a terrible professor, he is also incredibly rude and clearly does not care about his students (with the possible exception of a handful of students who dedicate their entire life to his classes). Enjoys making exams unnecessarily difficult. DO NOT TAKE class with him

Needs improvement

Intermediate Accounting is an intriguing course overall; however, Brian seems to be under the impression that his dry lectures cover even a portion of his exams, specifically the final exam. Regardless of his research, there needs to be an addition to the accounting lectures here at the Telfer School of Managment.

While I do understand Intermediate Accounting 1 and 2 are hard classes regardless of where and who you take them with, Brian just makes it worse. Useless lectures unrelated to material on exams, just blabbers on about cricket and Australian Christmas trees. Very unprofessional and condescending.

His method of teaching is absolutely useless. I finished with a good grade, but no thanks to him

His method of teaching is backwards. Usually, a prof teaches the material and then students do practice questions on their own time. With Conheady, he goes through exercises in class and expects you to magically know how to do them. You are expected to learn all of the material yourself. (and there is a lot to know)

You pretty much need to teach your self in this class. The DGDs are much more useful than his classes. Hands down one of the worst profs in Telfer, avoid at all costs.

Conheady was clearly passionate about the subject and was interesting to listen to. However, the exams were unfairly hard. On top of that, lots of points are taken off for small mistakes. Get ready to study, but even the textbook and practice exam problems don't compare to the exam. I nearly switched out of accounting because of him and this class

Honestly I have taken Intermediate Acc. 1 in Algonquin and I thought she was bad, but compare to prof. Conheady, she is a 1-2 while prof Conheady is a 10 (10 being the worst). He literally doesn't teach you a single thing, but rather waste your time by pulling financial reports of a company and commenting about it. RUN FROM HIM or FAIL

Absolutely terrible prof who doesn't teach at all.

I don't know what is wrong with Telfer, but hiring him as the only intermediate accounting prof feels like the school wants to expel every ordinary student out and let the good ones pass. Seriously, it is only a second-year accounting class and he makes it like a CPA level 3 class. I am done since I am not paying money for frustration.

This prof doesn't teach at all! He simply just throws everything at you and expects you to learn everything yourself. I cannot imagine how those people get B or A with him as the prof. He is the unstoppable force that will drive you out of the accounting program. Whoever takes his class, I wish you good luck since we are in the endgame now.

I barely passed the midterm exams, which is one of the hardest exams I had ever written since I came to uOttawa. Even though I managed to pass midterms, my GPA is now seriously torn apart in pieces. Why would Telfer discourage students in such a brutal way? You must be ready for his course. Otherwise, I suggest that you change your major for good.

Refused to reveal how many questions were on the final exam which contained questions on separate pages with no ability to go back. Students could not check how many questions there were total and had to write blindly. Second midterm began 10 minutes late, and there was already insufficient time per calculation. Three deliverables per week.

Conheady is by far one of the worst professors I have encountered in my undergrad career. The workload that this prof assigns to their students is equivalent to 2-3 courses worth. Midterm exams were unnecessarily difficult. Don't expect to get higher than a C+. Prepare to self study and waster your tuition money. Avoid this prof at all cost!

Terrible prof; switched everything to Mcgraw Hill Connect so had to purchase the online textbook again and all the exams and tests/assignments are over that platform. Lectures are boring and he talks himself into confusion; better off just reading the text and attending class to do the weekly quizzes and assignments. Final and midterms were easy.

This prof should just choose retirement since he is too old to fit into the modern accounting system. His teaching methods are outdated since he will throw all the work to you and expect you to teach yourself everything. Even if you get an A+ in his class, there is nothing to be proud of because the knowledge only applies in the 1940s.

I highly doubt that Telfer opens the accounting program to troll us. The accounting department feels like that it is monopolised by a few people, and Prof Conheady is one of them. This prof follows the teaching ideology in the early 1960s, which is to teach nothing and wait for certain students to pass the class through natural selection. Horrible.

This professor is one of the worst professors in the entire school. Never taught in class, posts 3-4 hour worth of lectures a week. never teaches anything expects you to learn the stuff on your own. The only way to pass is to study the book and solve the questions. Absolute garbage of a professor.

conheady should not be teaching. Midterms were unnecessarily difficult, and his teaching style is very old fashioned. Pretty much read the textbook myself and completed the practice question and never attended class. Regret taking this prof!! AVOID

Despite passing intermediate accounting with a B, I couldnt remember a single bit of what Ive learnt because prof Conheady never actually taught you anything and you had to learn by rote to pass exams. What is the point of going to school if we neither get high grades nor knowledge? I now understand how Louis XIV felt when he got guillotiné.

This prof shows that the accounting education at Telfer is stale and full of itself. The classes are completely useless as he expects you to be a CPA accountant the moment you join the class, which is absurd. Telfer really needs to infuse its accounting department with some new blood, because this prof is only here to let you feel bad and useless.

Absolutely terrible. Classes were scheduled twice a week, yet completely online. He uploads study sequences with textbook readings, Wiley plus videos, and videos he uploads which you clearly see from his computer screen are from 2013 and 2014. Exams are fair but you will spend ridiculous amounts of time on readings and his videos. Absolutely avoid

Weekly quizzes on the upcoming week's subject and tells you to study 9 hours for them, then throws in questions on those quizzes that are actually two weeks ahead so you aren't ready to answer them. Prof thinks students only have his class, because the workload is unbearable. Get ready to do all three midterms on the weekend and not in class time.

By far the worst professor I've ever had in my entire life. He DOES NOT care about the students, and actually tries to mess our grades up as much as possible. He'll say that something isn't covered on a midterm, will then put that material on the midterm, and then give us a measly 1 mark even though the question was worth 12 marks. AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!

Method of teaching is great if you find a rythm and do your homework BUT, exams WEIGHT A LOT, lectures are confusing and you get into exercises immediately with prof which can be confusing because you legit self teach yourself with slides and videos. AND the worst part is no formula sheet in exams that are 35/50%with ACCOUNTING...

Firstly, prepare to have weekly assignements that take hours to complete, for them only to be worth a total of 10%. I come to class to try to learn, but he simply does not teach. Just goes over practice questions, while unnecessarily waffling throughout. Expects me to teach myself my watching his weekly 4 hour lectures and reading his 100 slides.

Doesn't teach, but rather waffles about unnecesary things. If you want to learn you have the single option of watching his 4 hour weekly lectures, and read about 100 slides. In class does boring review questions, absolute dull snoozefest. When it comes to the final, even going into it with a good mark, you will fail as its overly difficult, and 50%

If you can, please don't choose this professor, he won't pay attention to your questions. And the exam is very difficult, and the final score counts too heavily!! 50%!!

The way he is teaching this course is hilarious, he will let you do an in-class quiz before he teaches you anything. And that quiz is insanely hard unless you are fully prepared and don't need him to teach you anything! his exam is fair but he makes it hard, there are tons of easy ways to test students, but he chose the hardest way!

Assigns all the lectures through bright-space leaving you to teach everything yourself. Uses class time to ramble about irrelevancy. Quizes VERY difficult. Exams for the most part were variations of textbook questions except much harder which is fair. Exception was the final which consisted of questions no one heard of.That is not right. Laziness

Worst professor I have ever had in my life. Makes you teach all the course content to yourself and then all he does in class is ramble about unnecessary things happening in his life and then go over these "capstone questions" which were barley on the midterm and final. His only office hours are from 7am-9:30am ON SATURDAYS. Don't take his classes.

Absolutely useless

Quiz content has nothing to do with the knowledge learned before. In class, we just do his exercises and he never talks about anything related to the textbook content. He doesn't even use his own slides. He believes that we can do everything. There are a lot of ambiguous or implicit descriptions of industry conditions in the midterm exam questions.

this class is way too difficult for no reason: no multiple choice, no practice or review questions for exams, all long answers that professor does not review on exams, no cheat sheets, no formula sheets, you have to not only solve the long answers but also memorize all the titles. over complicated. pls let us use cheat sheets at least. thank you

Brian should retire from teaching because he weakens the Telfer accounting program and doesn't teach in a way that build a strong foundation for students pursuing their CPA. Overall, he a terrible professor, gives quizzes that destroys confidence and actively wastes the class time that students are spending their money on. Frustrating for no reason

Quite inconsiderate when responding to emails. When asking courteously, get ready to be responded with a generic and inconsiderate perspective

Awful slides, messy Brightspace, and an entire mark made up by 1 midterm, 1 exam, and in class quizzes. The class wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't so insanely boring to listen to and if the slides properly prepared you for the questions asked. The explanations in the slides are so surface level that you are fully unable to get by with them alone.

No solutions provided for the excersises

Was truly not a fan in any sense of the word. the in class quizzes often had averages of 40-55%, so no boosting your grade there, the two main grades (midterm and exam) are laughably unfair. 9 long answer with 14 multiple choice. Thats just way too much. The slides look awful and if all that wasnt enough it is physically painful to sit thu lectures

He should retire. His teaching methods are outdated, he expects you to learn complex material before class, and requires you to buy $100 Wiley software for quizzes on topics he teaches afterward. He insists you use overly complicated learning tools, lectures poorly from bad slides, and bases grades on an overly long 40% midterm and 45% final.
