Interesting and easy class. I learned a lot of useful stuff about excel and access. Rohrs is a nice guy, and a great teacher. Extra credit is offered!

Very good teacher. Fairly easy class.

Mr. Rohrs made BA 150 actually somewhat enjoyable. He is very helpful and makes class as interesting as possible. He is also very fair with grading. Highly Recommend.

Kind of a lot of work but if you do good on it you will def do good...real cool guy

Easy to understand, midwestern guy. Doesn't talk over your head.

Other prof's assign less work for this class, but his assignments aren't difficult. Really nice guy, helpful if you ask, pretty picky though.

i admit, i don't like the class (mis200) since i think it has nothing to do with my major. but mr. rohrs isn't that hard, and makes the class alright.

Only complaint is that he seems to enjoy to hand out busywork. Overall he is a great guy and his class is pretty easy. Offers EC. Tries to keep the boring subject of accounting interesting and does a pretty good job.

I absolutely love this teacher. Always gives opportunity for extra credit and makes everything easy to understand. I was dreading this course, but he has actually made it semi-enjoyable. Plus, he's hilarious!

Great teacher! I was not looking forward to taking accounting but he made it not so bad. Offers extra credit, and is available outside of class. Very approachable guy. And amazingly, we used our whole textbook.

I had this professor for MIS 2000 as well as ACCT 2220, and he is a much better accounting professor than MIS..or it may just be that I love accounting. Anyhow, Rohrs is a nice guy and presents the material well. Some topics may need office hour time though..his exams are DIFFICULT, so study well, and read the text.

Took his class freshman year. He's really funny and loves Dr. Pepper. Take his class!

AWESOME teacher. Down to earth and fun. Actually makes sense when talking about business. For quizzes look over powerpoint and for exams look over powerpoints and key terms in the book and you will be fine! I RECOMMEND HIM!

Makes accounting easy and capsim is really easy. This class is a no brainer. Provides a lot of extra credit opportunities so take advantage of that.

Nice guy, very hard exams though

Mr. Rohrs is a great teacher. He keeps his classes interesting and fun. Exams are fair and if you study well you should do well. Hardest exam was the midterm cycle problem.

He's extremely helpful and makes sure you understand the material. Also uses the same exams and quizzes from previous years (hint hint)

DO THE UNCOLLECTED HW!! If you don't you will be lost, i promise you! His multiple choice are difficult so study the papers he gives you, especially the Conceptual framework and TVM handout, he uses quesitons from those on alsmost every test. Pay attention, it can be boring and go in for help, he wants you to do well!

One of my favorite teachers of all time! Class requires studying but you'll really like him and he keeps things interesting. Capsim was fun for me and took up half of the semester and my team won. I've had him for both courses and wouldn't take anyone else!!

He was such a good teacher and really made sure you understood the subject by relating it to real life events. Accounting is a hard subject but if you study and stay on top of the assigned work it is very doable to get an A or a B. Just a little dedication and you're golden

Too many online assignments that he barely explains. He hardly ever collects the homework and his exams are too demanding for what he teaches in class. He may be a nice guy but he's an average professor.

Go to class and really pay attention, do all of the online homework, and you'll be fine. Rohrs is a good guy and does well at explaining concepts. If you actually want to learn something (especially in ACCT 2210 & 2220 or if you're an acct major) then take him. You might get a BC but you'll be glad in your upper level classes that you took him.

He's an amazing professor. Although he's kind of difficult and expects a lot from his students, he's so passionate about the subject he makes it enjoyable. He's always willing to help students too if they're confused. He does assign a good bit of homework, so be prepared.

Great guy. Really cares and/or is interested in the course material. Explains things in a super easy to understand manner, and has amazing understanding of the accounting field in general. Low amounts of homework with fair and simple grading criteria. Very helpful; if I take more accounting courses, I will certainly look to see if he instructs.

Heavy material coverage in class. He makes accounting more exciting and dumbs down the material. Beware of Capsim like everyone says. Don't take class time for granted. All problems done in class appear in nearly exact same way as exams. Great prof! A big reason why BG is top in accounting.

I thought professor Rohrs was AWESOME. First half of semester was managerial accounting and the second half was Capsim. Study HARD for the exams. He explains things very well and tries to make it fun. He is a riot and I loved his dry humor. I really enjoyed Capsim. Again, you get what you put into it. I hope I have him for my upper level classes.

Rohrs is a great guy, really cares about Accounting which makes the class more interesting. This class is very hard & time consuming - I'm just taking it as a business requirement. There are 4 exams in the 1st 1/2 of the class, I'm normally an A student, & I received 81.5, 79, 97.5, and 69 on them if that tells you something. 2nd 1/2 is Capsim.

This is NOT an easy class. Lots of homework (online & off), difficult tests, papers, and projects. He teaches VERY well. I cried after the first exam because I thought I failed (I didnt). It sucks, but if you cant handle this class, maybe dont be an accounting major. Its his job to weed out the bad students.

Rohrs is a certified beauty. One of the best professors I've come across during my time at BGSU. His dry sense of humor along with him knowing not many people find accounting enjoyable makes him a very funny guy. First half of class is lecture/test heavy and second half is Capsim. Capsim is actually pretty cool once you figure out how to use it.

Professor Rohrs was awesome. He was very funny and did his best to make class enjoyable. The 1st half of the semester though is VERY test heavy. There is an exam every 2 weeks, at least. There are a couple of quizzes too, but they are take-home. Study for the exams though and you will be fine. Rohrs is my favorite professor I've had.

You can get a good grade in the class but you have to work really hard for it. He really knows the material and going to class is a must if you want to know what is happening in the class.

Plenty of exams and weekly homework. Rohrs goes over sample homework problems in class to make the homework easy. Very similar problems to the homework end up on the exams. Great guy with a good sense of humor

Entire second part of the semester you are working on a group project called Capsim. I had no clue what was going on at first; however, I asked a lot of questions and asked my friends who had taken the class before me and they helped! Group participation really goes into consideration as well! First part of semester is test and lecture heavy!!

If you aren't very good at accounting you can still do well in this class. There are about 4 big exams and the final is a simulation. He offers many other opportunities to keep your grade up through other assignments.

If you want to learn financial accounting, take the course with Professor Rohrs. He gives you the opportunity create every financial statement yourself, and then he gives you ample feedback about it. That's why he's an exceptional teacher. He wants you to learn, and puts in extra effort to encourage that learning. Happy I took this course.

Funny Guy who loves what he does. Class isn't easy but putting in the work will result in a good grade.

5 exams in this class but it was nice that it only covered like 3 chapters and if you did bad on one it didn't hurt you too much. Lots and lots of homework. Cool guy, would take again for sure.

Overall, I really liked Rohrs. However, Capsim SUCKS. I found it very challenging and if you don't do well from the beginning you won't do well for the rest. Exams are tough, but if you go to class and study you should be fine. Make sure you get every point possible the first half of the semester so Capsim doesn't hurt you too badly.

The first half of the class is a lot of work (with three exams in the first half of the semester), but once you get to Capsim the class becomes so much easier. Professor Rohrs loves accounting and is always willing to help students. Asking for advice about Capsim throughout the project will help your team a lot.

The only reason this course can be tough is because of the material. Rohrs does a great job at explaining such things and keeps the course at a reasonable amount of work. He does his best at doing the right things for his students and I really enjoyed his class.

Brian is really dry and not super receptive to criticism but he does a good job of teaching. You do an interesting simulation for the second half of the semester called CapSim. It's pretty difficult but there are no McGraw Hill assignments/paper exams for the second half which are really nice. Exams are in person so you have to actually learn.

I loved this semester with Professor Rohrs. Tests are pretty difficult but there are plenty of homework assignments and extra credit opportunities to bump up your grade. He is always willing to give extra help and is obviously very passionate about teaching and accounting. As long as you go to class and study for exams, you will pass.

Prof. Rohrs is always a fun professor but his classes are usually quite involved and difficult. While he makes it interesting, it is also not always the easiest lectures to pick up on. He usually has many exams and they are always worth a lot of points. You have to attend class or you won't succeed.

Grades quick, Awesome Lectures, Genuinely likes accounting but understands its not everyone's thing. If you go to class it passes by quickly and is entertaining and engaging. Hated financial accounting, but loved managerial with Brian Rohrs

Rohrs is a really nice guy, but not a great professor. You fly through an entire textbook in 7 weeks, and then you do a group simulation with a random group that is worth 40% of your grade. He talks in circles and does not explain things very well, especially the simulation. Exams are very difficult even when you study. Consider your options!

This class is very difficult. The exams are rough and Capsim is painful. Professor Rohrs is your best bet for this class. There's a few exams and they are all ouchy. The class is difficult no matter what, but he adds charisma and his lectures are a tad bit silly sometimes. I enjoy him as a professor but holy moly I hate the subject matter.

Re-do homework and class examples, and you will be fine. CapSim is not as scary as you'd think. Good guy and willing to help.

Rohrs is an ok professor, I just dislike the structure of his class. You rush through an entire semester's worth of material in about 7 weeks, with difficult exams that are worth a large portion of your grade. The last half of the course is a capsim simulation with a group. It is fine if you get a good group. Would not take this class again.
