The online course uses Wileyplus and it is simply terrible. You will end up spending most of your time trying to find a relative youtube video as the book DOES NOT go into as much detail as the tests!The explanations on Wiley are non-existent so really all you do is answer the homework wrong to see the solution SO DON'T EXPECT TO LEARN ANYTHING

Bruce Maule is a great lecturer who is able to present very dry material in a way that is relevant and often quite humorous. He is also very responsive to suggestions from students.

This was a great course that is offered online. You can set your own pace which was awesome. I finished in about 6 weeks and was able to clear my calendar for other classes. I do recommend buying a used book on financial management to help with some of the problems if you don't buy access to the online book.

I liked that I could start early and finish early. For an online class instructions were clear. Follow instructions on course homepage, read the emails from prof maule, and you will pass.

Bruce Maule is an awesome instructor. The class was very informative and I have learned so much! The books he chose were reasonable on amazon both under 15 or 20 dollars. The information is valuable and will helpful to anyone who is interested in personal investing. I highly recommend this class to everyone regardless of your major!

Loved this professor I took his Accounting 121 class online during the spring semester of my freshmen year back in 2021. He is very chill and cares about his students deeply. He also goes out of his way to encourage you to do well by emailing you directly. I strongly recommend taking this professor :)

There is a fair amount of reading and writing but his assignments are clearly laid out so you can do them ahead of schedule or fit into your schedule. I worked full-time and I like that since I can fit it into my busy working schedule. I also like the fact that it was an online class.

I attended this course in Spring 2019. I loved this class! You read a couple finance books and discuss them weekly. I highly recommend this course. This influenced me to have a Vanguard account and pursue the path of FI (Financial independence).
