Professor Sobel is an exceptional lecturer. He makes sure everyone one understands the course even if he has to go back to explain the whole concept. Although the course was really depending, he made every effort to get us through the course by giving us series of assignments and working them together with us in class.

Prof. Is good at teaching but a tough grader. Even the homework quiz are tough and you will get once chance to clear it. Also, the quiz in the classes are really tough and sometimes out of syllabus. There is no easy way to pass his class. You need to study.

Corey is the most organized teacher thus far! He stays on top of his email communication and class assignments. Students got to study and prepare for the projects and weekly quizzes, but achieving a decent grade was still very feasible. The professor has excellent presentation skills, and the way he talks in class is very clear and smooth.

His explanations are clear, he is engaged with his classes, and he helps you out if you have questions. Weekly homework is complicated, bi-weekly quizzes are complicated and against the clock. One of the best professors at UCW.

Prof. Corey explains the subject very well. But, the assignments and quizzes are very hard. The problems are so complicated than what he discussed. During quizzes, we have very little to compute and we can't go back to questions to review. We're so pressured. Also final groups are randomly selected. He also doesn't provide feedback on the quizzes.

Professor Corey Sobel is generally a good man. He gives good grades; you need to do well. Three in-class quizzes, one group assignment, one individual assignment, weekly Wiley quiz, and weekly ed puzzle video. You can have good marks if you put a little weight on the accounting background. He is a good professor and I want to take him again.

Amazing professor. The course was easier for me due to my accounting background, but even my friends without that background earned A grades because they put some effort to learn.
