The rating is somewhat deceptive. You can get an A easily, but he's too easy. It's hard to learn anything because he gives it all to you. By test time, you don't know how to figure out the problems (many of which he doesn't go over) for yourself.But he does stuff to boost your grade.

You don't need the textbook, but you do need the coursepack. He is really easy (just tests which is the same format of the coursepack and one hw assignment); he is passionate about accounting and his students; he made me want to change my major to accounting. He makes it interesting. My favorite professor of all time.

I never used the textbook, but I used the coursepack every day in class. Never any required homework. Tests every three weeks or so. Easy material, but I felt like I did not learn a lot about what real accounting is like. We covered the same thing for many weeks and progressed very slow. Really nice guy.

Dr. Anderson is very nice, but utterly ineffective. The amount I learned in 2 months in his class could have been covered in 1 week. Half of the time in his class is spent watching "How It's Made" videos with little to no connection to course material. The knowledge he does impart is overly simplified and thus hard to transfer to your career.

If you aren't an accounting major and just looking to get through your accounting classes, Dr. Anderson is a must take. He does not over complicate accounting, and does not give out of class homework. Study for 1-2 hours before each test and you'll do great. Overall: A fun class that gets you another "A" to pad that GPA!

Paul Anderson is so great! I had him last semester and now I'm taking his 121 class! There's only a few tests, and he works really hard to make sure that you understand the content. If you sleep in or whatever, the day-to-day lectures aren't super important, but I would recommend going just so you don't fall behind. No homework!

Super chill prof. Makes accounting simple and doable. Lectures are a bit dry but that's accounting. I hear it's hard to have a different prof for acct 2 so make sure you get him for both classes. Great guy take him.

Really easy class, attendance not required, although make sure you study for tests because that is normally the only grade you'll receive. Homework is pretty rare.

Every class we go through the interactive textbook from where we left off. He does a good job re-explaining things when they don't make sense and we get zero homework. There are tests every couple chapters and no final. Most test questions come straight from the textbook or the jeopardy game he has on canvas.

Professor Anderson is the nicest person I have ever met. He is so nice and I really enjoyed his class. Acct 120 and 121 is supppppper easy, its impossible not to get an A from him. the only down side is that his classes are usually offered as mon, wed,fri:////

we always turned in class work that was done through the lectures, so if you miss that day you miss the points for class work. we didn't have any homework and he gave you packets that were very similar to tests. tests were m/c and pretty easy. if you come to class and turn in work you will be good. He's a great guy and definitely recommend him

Prof. Anderson was so sweet and was willing to answer all questions whenever anyone asked. He got straight into lecturing one class started, and never ended class early. The only drawback of this class was the fact that we had to spend money on the book and also spend money on the "workbook" which was just his slides that could've been printed out.

Was nervous taking the course as I never had exposure to acct. though the class was pretty cool. 6 exams made up our grade & were based off our class lectures. He took away points if you did a wrong # or entry but wouldn't dock any more if you still executed the concept correctly. Recommend printing out the slides & taking really good notes. No hw

Professor Anderson makes accounting really approachable. The class is mostly lecture-based, but he's great at explaining the concepts. The tests are fair and focus on the key material. I found unstuck AI super helpful for practice questions and exam prep. Overall, a solid course with a chill prof.
