Super boring and cannot answer the questions asked by students! Don't take her because if you make a 69 overall, she will not bump you up 1 point to pass the class. She's a slow grader when it comes to test and because she is a CPA she expects us to know everything. Going to class is pointless b/c she has a confused look on her face the whole class

I made a C+ and its 100% my own fault for slacking. She is a fine teacher, ive had WAY worse - i recommend ignoring the person below me.. take her. I plan on retaking her for a higher grade, especially now that i know how to do good in this class. Sincerely do all the homework before class, once online and 2 times by hand - you will get an A or B.

I would not recommend this professor to anyone. She is crazy strict, for example.. You can't even use the restroom, if she even *thinks* you're looking at a cellphone she rants about no technology in class, and don't bother asking questions because she makes you feel like an idiot when she answers. She does handout notes, that's kinda nice I guess.

Bandla is actually a pretty nice lady, just not good at teaching accounting. She's pretty shy, so she doesn't engage the class at all during lecture - just merely reads through Powerpoints and does homework problems on the board. She goes fairly fast, so it can be hard to keep up. Just go to class, do your hw, read the book, and you'll be fine.

My favorite part about her class was how she did most of the homework questions in class. And the ones she doesn't cover, she opens a video tutorial of on the homework. She answers questions in class, but she does go fast in lecture. If you're already used to fast teachers, you'll be fine. Read the book for concepts. I had a study buddy, it helped

Super hard class no doubt but also not the best professor for the job. She tends to speed through each chapter and acts confused when we do not understand her or ask for more help understanding. Go to SI 100% and you'll (most likely) pass. She also tends to be rude when you try to talk to her after class or in office hours

If you are looking to take accounting, do NOT take Madhuri Bandla. I would go to every class, every SI session for our section, visit her during her office hours once a week, and still wasn't enough. She didn't care about me on whether I passed or failed because "other students are passing the exams." A+ effort for a C letter grade, just a heads up

I did really well in ACCT 2010, and just couldn't manage an A in this course. You'll learn so much though, its worth it to take her.

Great professor overall! Class can be intimidating at first, but just do your hwk and actually try to understand the material instead of just memorizing it. Once you get behind on a chapter, it will be very hard to catch up since lectures are fast paced! 1st test was ok, 2nd test had a TON of materials covered, 3rd test was hard, final was BRUTAL.

If you're taking intermediate accounting, take Bandla's class. This class will be hard no matter who you take but Bandla does an amazing job teaching you the material. She teaches the material very quickly but she will also do some questions that are almost identical to the HW in class. Her extra credit doesn't seem like much but it will help.

She does not teach anything and her zoom classes are dry and she blasts through the material just to say she did it. Does not respond to emails and her tests are random each time. Doesnt matter what you studied or how hard you will cry

1% away from making a B in this course, but she is still an amazing professor nonetheless. Read the textbook and take good notes on the lecture videos before class, the videos are WAY more helpful than the actual lecture. Also print out the powerpoint slides and take notes as you read. Your grade is the result of the amount of effort you put in!

Okay guys this is not a biased review, listen to me closely or your GPA will pay the price. I took 2010, 2020 and 96+ in both. This class however, she basically reads off the PowerPoint, does not add much and breezes through the material. Each email I send takes 1 week of response time. Genuinely bad at explaining things. Take Neel, just trust me.

DO NOT TAKE HER if you want clear explanation on work. She works problems out on a word document and it gets confusing. She also goes too fast, and when you have a questions, she makes you feel stupid if you are wrong. I am basically reteaching myself everything for difficult homework. Tests are 75% of grade. Most people dropped her. I wish I did.

She does not care about any student's mental health. She does not even respond to emails at all. Very careless and hard. Does not know how to teach at all. Bright smart women but not a good professor. She looks down at her students like they are stupid for not knowing something.

In each class, the professor would rush through notes without any breathing room barely explaining any of the content. you're expected to read an incredibly long and boring textbook while also completing tedious homework each week. This class takes much more effort than any class at UNT I've taken so far and could be taught better by a diff prof.

Please take another professor. I took two different classes, two different topics by her, both are in low B high C area. I am an A-/B+ student. The lectures are very hard to follow and while I have no doubt she has mastery of the material she does not know how to transfer it. She would be great where she doesn't have to explain anything to anyone.

This may be one of the worst courses I have ever taken. I went to every class and did every homework assignment and am still worried about my grade. She talks way too much without stopping to make sure the students understand. She assumes we already know the material. I tried hard to understand this subject in her class, but it felt impossible.

How this professor is still teaching is beyond me. Her lectures were terrible and her method of teaching is impracticable. I barely grazed by with an A by the grace of God and all-day study sessions on the weekends. This class has actually traumatized me. Her lectures/resources were of no help to actually learn the material. Find someone else.

If you can, take another professor. Lectures were rushed all the time. Explanations were lack luster and made the person asking feel even more confused. Test averages were always below passing and had only one curve of three points. The absolute hardest class I have ever taken. This class took a couple years off of my life.

She doesn't give a review/curve/drop an exam. I'm dropping ASAP. Avoid her, take it at a different college over the summer, her class is not worth the stress/GPA tank.

I think Prof Bandla is very knowledgeable but she teaches as if we know the material already. She gives out paper note packets for each chapter, but I do not find them that helpful. Hw takes superrrr long to complete, like several hours. Do the hw practice because it is the same as the hw. Exams are just hw and quiz problems, so go over that.

Regardless of the professor, ACCT 3110 will be a difficult course. In my opinion, much of your success depends on your work outside the class, not the professor. I thought Bandla did a good job. To succeed: read the textbook before class, take notes in lecture, keep a constant study schedule (ex. flashcards), and use the accounting lab if needed.

I'm a 4.0 student and even though this class was difficult, it's manageable. Tests are just like the hw and the quizzes. Study those and take good notes on the lecture and you will be fine. Study the hw solutions that she'll post, quizzes, and concept pages. Participate in class and don't be afraid to get answers wrong. It's part of learning.

This class will be difficult regardless of the professor. The three hours you spend with the professor are not enough; you must review outside of class. Read the text before class and use the lecture to review. For exams, focus on understanding the HW/quizzes. Some show up directly, but you're more likely get the same topics asked differently.

Professor Madhuri is an amazing person! I hated ACCT 2010 but she made ACCT 2020 very easy. I passed most of my exams and homework was easy too. If you need tutoring, she won't hesitate to help you. You do need to study to pass but its not difficult to do that. Definitely would take her class again.

I got a 58 on the first exam and a 90 on the second. It is possible to succeed in this class, but you have to practice every single day basically and prioritize it over your other classes. For exams practice the MBC "rework and review" over and over. She curves maybe 3 pts but the rest is on you. End of semester there is an easy group project.

This class is very challenging(It's considered a weed-out class). Bandla is knowledgeable but not good at teaching. The material is broad but shallow(a mile wide inch deep). The exams are based on MBC and extra credit is helpful. Take this class with another professor if you can. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! (Look at other reviews for confirmation).

Don't miss a class! You'll be confused the next time you're there. She gives handouts to work on in class, but doesn't do all of them, leaves you confused when you do the hw. MBC is not like MyLab; does not tell you what you did wrong. She also takes forever to respond, make sure to send a follow-up email to expect a response back.

Intermediate I is always going to be hard, but she could have prepared us better for the questions we would potentially come across. The homework and exams are a jump in difficulty from what you are taught in class. At least she gave us solutions and a cheat sheet for the final, but it still wasn't enough and I failed almost every exam. Got a B tho

Professor Bandla is great! I took her for ACCT2020 spring semester and it was honestly one of my easier classes that semester. Everyone in my class complained about how hard it was and how she was unable to teach, but i experienced none of that. She makes it very easy to communicate with her and is able to answer questions thoroughly.

She moves very quickly and we go over a lot so she doesn't go into very deep detail about the concepts. I rewatched all the lectures and redid all the homework and still fail the exam and about half the class failed all the exams and so about half dropped the class.

Lots of easy group projects. The professor was okay, but is my least favorite acct professor. I had messaged her to ask for help with one question of a project, because it wasn't in our textbook. She told me she couldn't help me because it wouldn't be fair to the other students. She didn't even tell me where I could look for the answer.

She moves fast in lectures and it's hard to keep up. A decent amount of EC is offered and really helped me keep my A. Group projects weren't hard and kind of a waste of time. Best way to prep for exams is to rework the homeworks over and over again. The exam reviews weren't very helpful also. This class requires a lot of outside work to get an A.

I would say a lot of the reviews on here are sour that they did not study effectively for the exams. Simply doing the reading and repeating the homework will guarantee a B+ for this class and 3110.

I was scared to take this prof because of the bad reviews but she was nowhere near as bad as they make her seem. She gives out handouts with problems that you follow along with each class which were super effective imo. Don't miss class- you'll be confused and the handouts are identical to the hw. It's gonna be a tough class no matter who you take.
