I was literally late every single class, but as long as you grasp the concepts, she is lenient. Near the end of the semester, if you haven't completed all of your assignments, she gives you the opportunity to do them and hand them in without penalty. Teaching style stinks, but overall an easy A -- AS LONG AS YOU DO THE WORK.

Wouldn't take again

I would never suggest taking this professor if you plan on trying to pass. Accounting is not a easy subject in general but she makes it completely impossible. She has a very sarcastic approach and is very unfair grader. For example ,the hardest test is graded the highest worth 25% of the grade which in turn effects your overall grade drastically.
