One of the best teachers at John Carroll, not the easiest, but he sure knows his stuff.

He is a good teacher, but extremely tough and can put students down at times.

He knows his stuff very well. You have to take good notes and keep up with the reading and homeworks. He is a hard teacher but manageable.

He's a decent guy. To do well in his class, be male and wear collared shirts.

No, he doesn't exhibit male preference. He hates on everyone equally. He's tough..but you know exactly where you stand and know exactly what is expected of you. If he thinks you are an idiot after the first few weeks he will either ignore you or publically ridicule you throughout the semester.

Anyone who hates Bloom probably didn't pay attention in class. The man' a bit squirrely and odd, but he knows his stuff like the back of his hand. So good a teacher that I changed my major from Marketing to Finance, AND dared to take the second semester of his class. Take him to learn... not get by.

Bloom is awesome. I don't know why everyone hates him so much. If you aren't stupid he's cool. He's like 60 give him a break on being a boring guy, his sense of humor is funny

The tests were not in line with the practice work. They were much more difficult. Not enough time was allowed for the them except for the final. The text, not well organized, did not have enough practice problems. His essays were confusing. He did not give the assignment of reviewing a company all at once, so it was difficult to organize

There is a substantial amount of students who struggle, but if you are smart you will get on his good size. He is incredibly smart and a learned more in that class than any other at John Carroll. If your smart you can easily get an A.

I loved Dr. Bloom. He is not the guy you want to take if you want an easy ride through class. He requires work, but he also rewards those who show hard work and shows that they are at least trying. He really means well, and wants to make sure that his students succeed. He is extremely smart, and very helpful. Truly a great guy.

Very tough but you learn

Ok this guy is just odd. I statred off in him class absolutely hating him. By the end he was nicer...just be freindly to him and go see him and the tutors. If he tells you to attend both of his classes dont be offened he tells everyone that. His tests are exactly what he says will be on them so just study and dont think you know it.

You become a warrior after leaving Bloom's 304 class.

Dr. Bloom is the best accounting professor at JCU when it comes to students actually learning the material. His class is no cake walk, but I LOVED it. Dr. Bloom certainly made it interesting. He has dry humor, but it is funny. He is more than willing to help out his students during office hours. If you want to pass the CPA exam, take him!!!

Any prospective accounting major should take Dr. Bloom. He makes you learn the material inside and out. If you want to do well in upper AC courses, take him in 202/203 it will pay off in the long run. By far, one of the best professors at JCU.

Bloom is part of the reason JCU is a great school. He keeps class hard so JCU grads match up with the best.

Dr. Bloom is one of the mist highly regarded accounting professors in the country. Obviously, if you don't have what it takes or don't care to be an accounting major, don't take him. His class is very hard, and chances are the people that are complaining are dumb. I hope none of you ever work for me on an audit. I don't hold hands...

Dr. Bloom is great, just beware that his 303 and 304 classes are easily some of the most difficult in the entire school. Keeps JCU accounting on top.

It's all about going into the class with the right mindset. Bloom is not impossible; he expects alot of his students. Read the book before he goes over the material in class and you will be fine. Take good notes b/c quizzes come straight from his lectures. Go see him in his office...he really is a nice guy.

Dr. Bloom wants his students to understand the material. He is not impossible. Not everyone at JCU can be an accounting major, and he wants to make sure that the best are representing JCU out in the accounting world. Go see him, do the homework, and take good notes and the class will not be impossible.

Dr. Bloom is brilliant, and prepares you for the brutal world of public accounting. If you can't make it in his class, you'll never make it as an auditor. Keeps JCU on top.

No doubt the best teacher I've ever had when it comes to learning and understanding course material. He will drill you in class a lot. You can't hide. He is very tough & demanding from his students. If you want to be an accounting major he's a must take IMO. Anyone else who isn't serious about accountingschool work in general should steer clear.

Dr. Bloom is by far one of the best professors I have ever had. The clarity with which he teaches is unparalleled and will teach you the material down the last detail. He is however a very tough grader so do not expect to get an A in his class. However, expect to learn accounting in great detail from one of the best professors there is.

304 is not easy by any means. The best way to pass is to get on Dr. Bloom's good side by participating in class. The only way to do this is to do some reading and talk to him outside of class.

Probably the best professor I have ever had! He is life changing and now accounting is my world! Take him if you have the chance. He is excellent and makes students reach their full potential. He is very helpful in class and with all assignments. He always gives excellent feedback. Always use a pencil too!!

Dr. Bloom is an amazing professor. However, his class is difficult and will take up your free time. I took him for AC201, and it allowed me to easily coast through my next two accounting classes with an A.

Dr. Bloom is one of the hardest teachers I've ever had. However, I respect the hell out of him. He makes you prove yourself and rightfully so because he is so good at his field. You'll hate him during class but love him afterwords because he makes you better. Genuinely wants you to succeed but you have to 150% really work for it. Nice guy.

Dr Bloom's class (AC304) is one of the hardest classes i've ever taken. He is a good teacher and knows what he's talking about. Do your homework, learn the material and go visit him in his office hours. He wants to help those who want help.

One of the hardest professors I've ever had, but if you want to learn Accounting, take him. If you're not an Accounting major, you should probably avoid him. Bland, boring, and a hard grader. Test and quizzes are unreasonably hard and there is no curve. Requires hard work, but you will learn accounting. He doesn't mind failing people either

If you are looking to set yourself apart from the average, then taking Dr. Bloom's intermediate accounting class is a must. He is a rock star in accounting principles and application. John Carroll University and Accounting faculty including Dr. Bloom prepare a student like no other school. Good luck, but know you are being taught by the best!

Dr. Bloom stands in front of the class and talks about the paper handouts given. It is very important to hang onto his every word because he will ask questions on the quizzes and exams about the sometimes niche things he talks about. Class gets easier as it goes on but still will be the hardest accounting class at JCU.
