She is AMAZING in every sense of the word. She simplifies accounting. Her lectures are clear and helpful. She is SO nice and so willing to help and answer questions. Exams ARE difficult, study EVERYTHING. GREAT professor, definitely my personal favorite.

She is very nice and very willing to help and make sure everyone understands. She is also very undestanding of circumstances that may arise and cause you to reschedule a test. She is probably the best accounting professor.

She is very willing to go above and beyond to help you understand a very difficult course. Lectures are the most organized. Expectations high though...H/W everyday and exams are really difficult so be prepared!! Def. one of the better ACC Profs at UM-D

Excellent professor. Extremely nice lady, informs you of what she expects from you. Be prepared to work in this course, but it's fun nevertheless.

The best accounting teacher on earth

She is the best. Baker makes the material clear and easy to understand. I still asker her questions(via email) and she gladly helps out.I hope to see hher teaching more advanced courses in the future. If you a have a chance to take her for a course ,You would be a fool not to.Thanks Mrs. Baker!

Best Acc prof at UMD. Explains powerpoint presentations thoroughly. Goes over HW the next day after handing it in so make copies of the hw. Exams are difficult. Offers an extra credit paper. Read the book and study a lot for exams. Extremely nice and helpful. Class was very interesting even tho I took it in the summer.

A difficult class, but an A is attainable with extra credit paper & when she curves the tests. Homework not graded on correctness! You'll definantely need to put some effort into this class, but it isn't that bad as long as you keep up with the reading and homework. Tests always based on the review problems she posts on eres, study these prob!

This teacher is a very good choice. Accounting is not an easy topic, but she breaks it down well and her exams are not as difficult as they can be in other classes. I would surely take her again if I had the choice. Some of the other Acc teachers are really scary. But with Baker, a decent grade (B) can be had with average effort.

Professor Baker is an excellent teacher, although the class is driven primarily by powerpoint presentations, she is very helpful when it comes to reviewing homework. If you do the homework, you will be successful. I would take this class again in a heartbeat!

Great professor! Makes accounting seem much easier than it is. Exams and quizes are difficult if you are not prepared, but they are extremely straight forward. Best professor for accounting and UM-D.

Great Prof! She tries very hard to explain the concepts to students and to make sure they understand them. She's very open to helping people in and out of class. Hard course however, so be prepared to study and work hard. Lots of hw, lot of quizes, and difficult tests. But still, she's a great professor. Take her instead of others...Trust me!

Cares about her students. Tests are departmental so they are difficult, but her quizzes and homework are easy and help you greatly when test time comes. I recommend Prof. Baker.

Professor Baker is a great teacher!She really cares about helping her students.The class is a lot of work though and there's homework everyday.If you just study a ton from the book u should do fine on the tests!It is possible to get an A if you put it in a decent amount of effort.

Professor Baker is a fine accounting teacher and grades fairly. The problem I had was with the class structure. HW first & THEN a Powerpoint lecture on the material. This made lectures pretty useless to me. The online HW system is also terrible. I didnt have to take this class. So if you're like me and don't HAVE to take this class, DON'T TAKE IT!

Great Professor, professional and not overloading. Be prepared to put in the time/effort and study for tests. Don't miss class either. I got a B in the class and studied about 4 hours per test. Tests are difficult but straight forward.

Exceptional teacher, always enthusiastic and helpful. Gives a fair amount of homework, but only checks for completion not correctness. Tests are difficult, but not overbearing. This class will require you to work, but it is a very rewarding class.

Professor Baker is an excellent teacher, one who is glad to be teaching, and really puts forth an effort in preparedness, lectures, and welcomes questions. Multiple choice is very difficult on the tests and they are created by the department. She is definately there to help in anyway she can. Do all the homework, show up to class, and you will fine

I found the class material difficult. The tests are department created. DO the homework it turns into extra credit in the end. She is helpful and means well.

By far the best accounting professor on staff at UMD. If you have to take an upper level accounting class, take it with her. Not only is she extremely helpful, but she is also experienced in her field and knows what she is talking about. Best professor I have ever had at UMD.

This class was hard as hell but bearable... the exams; the multple choice was hard as hell but the problems were bearable.. DO THE HMWK even if its not graded. ... ITS HELPS ALOTTT!!!! Baker helps out alot and is very nice...

look, its not that hard. show up to class and dont sleep. do all 5 or 6 quizes (really easy), turn in ALL manual homework on time even if its right or wrong just turn it in and get credit. do all wiley plus on time. exams you really gotta study for but if you do then its all paid off in the end.

I'm about to fail her class, but I still think she is one of the best professor at UMD. For all the whinnyers, what did you think this was, high school? You're in college so get on with the program and stop whinnying.

The exams are hard, but she has no control over that because the department makes them. a lot of hw but little probs if you do them you'll credit even if there wrong. you have to study for the exams, its not an easy a by any means. but shes a nice prof probably better than the others the class is going to be difficult no matter who you take it with

She is a great teacher. Lots of homework, but if you do all homework and come to class, it is not too hard to get an A. I would definitely recommend her. I wish more teachers were as prepared as she is.

One of the best teachers, she makes you learn, but is very fair. I wish I could have her for every class. Wonderful!

Professor Baker is the best accounting professor at our school. She is very knowledgable and helpful. There is a lot of h/w, but it is very helpful when it comes to the test. She allows a lot of EC which is VERY helpful at the end of the semester. I HIGHLY suggest this professor.

Accounting is hard no matter what but she is soo smart and a great professor! Multiple tests and quizzes to get points from. Tons of homework but it keeps you on top of everything!

great teacher. do the homework. show up with your laptop. its ok, she wont care. she is an awesome prof. do the homework, participate from time to time and you will do great in the class.

There is soo much work to do in this class. Homework, quizzes, the EXAMS are tough! But I must say, she is a wonderful teacher. The course is tough, so students have to put in a whole lot of work. Do your homework, even if it wrong, she will give you credit at the end of the semester. Great Prof!

The best teacher I have ever had!!!

Best professor I have had at this school! Take her! Do the work (its not that hard) and you will be just fine. She gives credit for effort, not correct answers, but explains everything!

Professor Baker is sooo nice:) She gives homework basically every day, but it isn't a lot per night. The subject can be difficult at points, but she is extremely helpful if you have any issues. I definitely recommend taking her for any class you can.

Hands down best professor at The UMD. Pajama day is the best!

This class really is not as bad as everyone says. Buy the study guide and do the problems in it and you will ace every test. Alot of extra credit is available so there is no reason not to get an A in this class.

Ms. Baker is very nice and knowledgeable, but unfortunately she talks for 75 minutes straight every class. Accounting is something you have to learn by doing, not by hearing. It would be nice if she gave students class time to do homework and learn for themselves. Nevertheless, she is a great professor with lots of real world experience.

Professor Baker is a great educator. She pushes you beyond your limit. Many subjects can become quite confusing, but she is always ready to lend a helping hand. The office hours are convenient and if you can't make it, she will set up an appointment with you. Professor Baker is mostly accessible via email. She's great about getting back to you.

Prepare to work harder in this class than all of your other classes combined. If you put in the time (4-5 hours a week), then you'll do well. She is a great teacher, but definitely doesn't take it easy on you. Not an easy A at all, but you'll actually learn something for all that tuition you're paying.

Prof Baker is a great teacher. She really knows her stuff. Half of the hw is online which is really helpful and a great study tool. Tests are hard. Quizzes are hard. She is super helpful and knowledgeable. Study, really study, and you'll do fine

Very helpful and enthusiastic professor! She is knowledgeable about the subject matter and knows that it is difficult for her students. Gives a ton of homework and this class takes some real time and effort, but practice is the only way to learn the concepts.

Great professor that went above and beyond to ensure that students understood the material. This class gives a lot of homework, but it helps in the end and counts as extra credit.

Very enthusiastic professor who really knows her stuff. Teaches a hard class with hard tests and quizzes but if you study and do the homework it balances out. She will talk for the entire class period, every single period right to the last minute so prepare for that. She's very nice and really knows her accounting and can help you. Good professor!

She gives credit for completion of homework so if you get some wrong its ok. In class, she goes over every HW problem so you know how to do them correctly. For tests/quizzes, you must read the chapters, know the vocab, and know how to do the examples in the book and problems from HW. You will learn a lot, decent amount of effort required for an A.

She knows her stuff, not an easy A class. Millions of Homework assignments. Quizes some online and some in class.3 Exams are not too hard, but requires a lot of efforts.She sounds nice, but you can easly sense her negative energy toward her students. not recommended unless you really want your behand whiped.OR you are an accountant major.

Susan Baker is an outstanding professor.I was really struggling in her class the first time so I had to retake it again in the summer and she helped me realize some things.I will now do much better in school than ever before and actually developed an appreciation for accounting.Thank you, professor!You are amazing! Take her!

She really knows her stuff and explains it clearly. Although attendance isn't mandatory, you'd be a fool to miss any class time. She expects more from you at this level, but she is fair. If you're having trouble, watch the WileyPLUS tutorials and practice similar problems from the ones she assigns.

One of the best professors at this university. Very few professors care about their students as much as her. She is willing to go out of her way to help you. A lot of homework in 298 but if you do it it will really help your grade.

Best Professor during my entire accounting program. Very knowledgeable and friendly. She knows accounting and will help you understand the material. Her tests are challenging but with lots of preparation, you can get an A. Overall, great professor.

I liked her. Not crazy about her teaching style, but she knows her stuff. In order to do well, it's a must to do the HW even though it's not turned in, as the tests are mostly based off of it. If you work HARD, you'll get an A.

Excellent prof. She explains things very well in a tough subject. She is very willing to help anyone who asks. She is fair and very knowledgeable. I would not want another prof for this class. I hope to take her again for accounting classes.

Pretty easy class. Just go over the slides and the practice problems ahead of time and you should be able to get an A.

Her exams are tough and kind of long but if you study and go to the review session the class before, you will be all set. She is really nice and helpful as long as you show up to class. If the class starts to not show up, she will give extra credit to the people that did show up on time. There is a lot of homework. 3 exams and a cumulative final.

Professor Baker is the best teacher in the whole accounting program. She makes you work and practice, which is what you need to do to learn accounting. If you practice enough before the tests, you'll do just fine.

I loved Professor Baker. She was extremely helpful, clear, and made me really enjoy accounting. She was also really friendly and I really enjoyed her class. I hope to take another one of her classes again.

Equity Accounting is probably the most difficult intermediate accounting course at UM-Dearborn. Prof Baker is the knowledgeable and best professor I've had in the accounting programs so far. She does a great job breaking down complex concepts into understandable material. The course takes serious amounts of hard work to do well in the course.

GREAT PROFESSOR! I learned a lot in her class & became very interested in accounting! Material was difficult but she taught it in a way that was easy to understand. A lot of homework but the homework is easy and really helps your understanding. I will take her for any Accounting class!

This class has too much work for an intro class, as well as semi difficult material. Not extremely interesting but Professor Baker is really cool. Willing to help, sets you up for success, she just teaches a boring subject unless you are into accounting.

I took this class last Fall semester (Fall 2013). Prof. Baker was great, really helpful, and teaches this class with enough patience for her students. YOU MUST PUT EFFORT IN THO TO DO WELL ON HW AND EXAMS! I started off well because of an acc. class i took in high school. Get the book, understand it (read chapters slowly), and TRY! God Bless :)

Tough, TOUGH class, but she does the best she can to make it easier. Be prepared for a lot of work and frustration, but if you put in the work and pay attention to her in class you will do well

I love Professor Baker! She's brilliant and not pompous about it at all - one of the nicest professors I've had. Equity is a tough class, but she's good at explaining the concepts and happy to answer questions. Lots of homework, tough but reasonable exams, lots of opps for ex credit, decent grade curve. Be prepared to work a ton and learn a ton.

If you want to get something useful out of your class and not feel like you wasted your tuition, then definitely take her class. She's a good professor, always willing to help. Accounting is not an easy subject to learn and understand, no matter who teaches it. As with any other class or activity, it takes practice and dedication to be successful.

I had to work really hard for an B in this class, the tests are kinda hard but if you actually study and do the online homework(2 per week at least an hour or more) you can do really well. She is very clear and easy to understand and has her funny moments too sometimes.

Professor Baker was great!! She's very clear about what you must do to pass the class and she's great at teaching the material. Would definitely take again.

Can't go wrong with her as your professor! Truly knows her stuff and cares about her students (and that's not found with a lot of professors). High expectations, tough material, but she is always willing to help. Meeting with her during office hours is extremely helpful, I highly recommend it! Overall, great professor and great lectures.

She was a good professor, I had never taken an accounting class before and am not an accounting or business major. Received an A in the class. I didn't show up for class a lot but I spent a lot of time reading the book which really worked in my favor. Seriously read the book! Tests are hard but not impossible, practice Orion before all the tests.

Doesn't seem like a lot of homework at first, but it can be overwhelming later on. Test are long and kind of hard. But she's a great professor! Super helpful and clear with her explanations. No book just wileyplus

The class is tough because of the material, but it's not bad if you take the time to practice and study. She has high expectations, but trust me because of that the material will be ingrained in your mind. Not an easy A, but a real learning experience. She's a good professor - well worth your tuition - and she will help if you speak up.

Professor Baker is awesome. Her teaching style does help you learn the material but sometimes all the work is overwhelming. A lot of material to cover but if you start falling behind or have any questions shes great about meeting after and helping out. I would take her again but the work load makes me question it. In general though, I loved her.

One of the best professors at the College of Business. It is apparent that she loves teaching and helping her students reach their goals and full potentials. You will have to work hard for the "A" grade, but it is certainly doable and you will learn the material well because she makes sure of that by offering to assist you every step of the way.

Great professor! Always more than willing to help! Make sure to read and DO THE HOMEWORK! It will help out in the long run in more ways than 1

It was a great class but towards the end the work load increased

Wonderful professor!!! Had her for 298 and 299 and she makes the material very easy to understand. Reading the book before the lecture helps you understand the material. As someone who has lots of experience in the field she is more than willing to let you in on her knowledge. OVERALL amazing professor.

Honestly, just stay on top of the reading and assignments and you will get a good great in her class.

Very professional, organized and very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience in the field. Always willing to help out students. Made the material very easy to understand even though the textbook helped me more than her lectures did. Tests werent too bad but the MC questions can be confusing

Great teacher, tough material. Just make sure to practice on a daily basis and to read the chapters in detail. Easy class if you put in the work.

Homework for every lecture both online and written. She is extremely knowledgeable, therefore setting high expectations. Exams will are always harder than what you studied for, but she is always happy to help if you are confused. Go to her office hours, and she will help you succeed. You have to invest substantial time into this class to succeed.

Lots of homework, written and online, but not too difficult. Most lectures start off by going over the written homework and finish by going into a new section. While it can be a hard class, Baker is definitely one of the better teachers to take if you have to take accounting. She's really nice and will work with you outside of class if needed too.

Great professor! to do well on her exams, YOU MUST FOLLOW HER STUDY GUIDES TO THE T and practice those problems over and over again till you get it! Take advantage of extra credit opportunities when offered.

Professor Baker is by far the best professor I've had in the college of business. I absolutely loved her class and I learned so much. She knows how to teach the material well and is very welcoming if you have questions or need help. It may seem like a lot of homework, but it's not hard at all and really helps for the exams. Definitely recommend her

Prof. Baker is really experienced, clear, helpful, logical and caring. There is lots of homework but she grades reasonably, and she makes it very clear what she expects on the exams. She also willingly offers career advice and wants to help put you on a path to finish school. She is level-headed and has reasonable expectations of students.

She's a very nice professor. She's intelligent and gives good lectures, but you need to focus if you really want to pass. She is caring and understanding and is willing to meet during office hours for questions. A lot of homework is due. Homework online and in class are due everyday. Make sure you do not forget to take quizzes online

This class is a ton of work, so be prepared for that. Homework, both online and written, is due twice a week. Tests require a lot of studying to remember the monotonous ways of accounting, which is annoying but necessary. With a lot of time invested, an A isn't too hard to achieve.

Professor Baker is hands down one of the most caring professors at UMD. She really wants everyone to succeed but you also need to be willing to put the work in for a good grade. There is HW due every class but it necessary to do because it will help you learn and it is worth a lot of points. Exams were hard, but definitely possible to get an A.

Class was pretty easy. Just make sure you are clear with the concepts as well as how to do the written problems and you should be able to get an A on her tests.

Do the home work and participate. Ask for more information about tests and you will get it.

Professor Baker is by far the best professor I've had at UM-Dearborn. She really cares about her students succeeding and is willing to help however she can. The homework assignments can be difficult but are helpful for exam preparation. This class isn't easy, but if you ask for help, you'll do fine.

This class does require you to teach yourself because there is a lot of material and she does not go over all of it thoroughly. The study guide she gives you correlates with the written part of her tests. Her multiple choice section is ridiculously hard, but do the extra credit and you should be fine.

Professor Baker is very nice and wants all of her students to succeed. There's a lot of homework but it's manageable and really helped me understand everything that we were learning. She offers lots of extra credit. I would definitely take a class with this professor again.

Professor Baker does teach this class differently than her fundamentals class. Due to the amount of content the class has, you will have to do a lot of self-learning. However, Professor Baker makes her class such that if you are able to understand the homework, the tests aren't that bad

Her teaching methods or unorthodox. You have to read the book and do the homework given first, then the next class she lectures on that homework. It was initially tough at first, but you get used to it. 4 exams, and she dropped the lowest exam score. You definitely remember the material more when you're forced to do it on your own first.

I really enjoyed being in Dr. Baker's class. Yes, she gives lots of homework and yes the class is difficult, but that's to be expected. Put in the work, read the textbook, take good notes, do all the homework, and you should do fine. All tests are based on homework done online or in class. Very available and willing to help. Wants to see success.

Great professor! She is tough, but fair. This class is hard is because accounting is complicated and she is just trying to prep you for more advanced accounting. I took the 7-week version and it was a little too fast for me. Studied 20 hours a week and only got a B+, but I was also working a lot. If that is you, I recommend taking in Fall/Winter.

The homework was time consuming. This class covers a lot. I felt the work load was significantly larger than most of my other classes. The video lectures are helpful. Study throughout the semester in preparation of a cumulative final exam. This class requires strong effort to do good unless accounting comes naturally to you.

Prof Baker teaches 298 as a flipped classroom now, utilising recorded zoom lectures. This means that class periods are group worksheets where you can ask questions. I find this format makes the content less dry, but YMMV. Tests are pretty hard, but she is lienient with minor errors. Plenty of extra credit oppertunities. Overall a strong class.

Not an easy class but the professor was very helpful. She replies to emails right away, always available after class to help you. Exams were hard but she curves a lot and gives lots of extra credit. Dont skip class because she gives a participation grade worth a lot of points and all you have to do is show up to class for that.

This is a very difficult class. Professor Baker is willing to work with you in order to do well. It is a very fast paced and would say it is more of an intermediate Accounting course. You will learn a lot! Show up for class and do the homework for a good participation grade she gives in the end.

Not an easy class but the professor was very helpful. She replies to emails right away and she is always available after class to help you. Exams were hard but she curves and offers a lot of extra credit opportunities. Ask questions and she will explain until she is sure that you understand. Great professor and class overall.

Exams are not easy but she offers a lot of extra credit which makes up for it. Also gotta learn most of the material through recorded lectures. There are plenty of opportunities to get help with the material if it's confusing. In general, not bad at all.

Hard class but amazing professor. This class is very heavily dependent on tests. If you need you need to reach out. Work hard and look at ALL the material she gives you before class like you're supposed to and you will be fine. Beware the multiple choice sections of her tests, I found that reading the actual book will help you with those sections.

Chapter lectures are posted online and in-person classes prioritized hands on worksheets/group work to improve understanding of the lecture. Homework assignments are due before class on wileyplus. Prof. Baker creates an engaging classroom by requesting participation and walking you through the process. assign./lecture heavy.

Very very nice professor. A little frantic and all over the place sometimes which made it hard to understand concepts. She knows the class is a little difficult so an A is 92% and she offers a LOT of extra credit. The SUA project was so annoying but if you ask her questions she will help (most people got 70/70).

Lots of homework and lots of material to cover. She's a really nice person though and gives out a ton of extra credit. Do the practice problems she posts before exams, they are literally the same as what will be on the exam but with different numbers.

Professor Baker is great. She manages to make the slides she reads interesting by connecting it to her prior work experience. She's super knowledgeable about what she's teaching. As long as you do all of the Wiley+ homework you will be prepared for the exams. There is also a ton of extra credit available throughout the semester. Take her!

lectures are very boring but if you focus and read over the text and slides that she provides in class, everything else is pretty simple. Exams are half multiple choice half written (balance sheets, written problems, journal entries). She gives a lot of extra credit opportunities for a grade curve at the end of the semester!

Professor Baker's class is challenging but rewarding. The lectures can be dense, but she provides helpful resources like practice problems. Unstuck AI and the textbook are great study aids to stay on top of the material.
