nice lady, knows her stuff, but moves way too fast
smart lady but really flies through the material. nice person.
dont blink youll miss a chapter good teacher
way too much homework doesnt answer questions
so far so good! seems like a good teacher and decent person.
goes really fast but good prof. knows accounting.
do homework to prepare for exams. excellent prof.
she prepares you for exams well
The class itself is not easy, but she is the only prof. who will prepare you for exams. Good Prof.
She gives too much homework and she doesn't go over it in class. This class goes too fast for anybody to keep up. There is too much that you have to do outside class.
No Comments
Runs through the material very quickly. Does not explain anything in great detail. Very Hard class.
The class is moderately difficult (a lot of material). She is always available to my answer many questions. This is a big help given the volume of material to cover daily class.
Wonderful teacher, you just have to do your homework and you can easily make an A
Good teacher but theirs way too much material for one semester and she goes really fast. Lots of homework but you have to do it if you want to pass the exams.
She sucks
Best Acct 2121 teacher but still a hard class
Fairly easy course, but lots of math so be prepared. Tests are extremely long, but you'll do OK if you study. 2122 is easier so just get this over with and you'll be fine.
Very good teacher. Actually teaches the course.
Very good teacher...Class itself is hard, but she clears it up. Do the homework and spend alot of time studying and you'll do fine. Go TO CLASS!!
She is hot! and a great teacher
I didn't have this professor, but she is so good at teaching, that I went to her class once or twice a week to learn what my awful teacher couldn't teach me. Very helpful, cheerful, and knows her stuff!!!
she cares about you learning the material. definitely the best teacher i've had in college so far.
SHE IS SOOOO SUCH A GREAT INSTRUCTOR! SHE IS THE BEST INSTRUCTOR SO FAR AT UNCC! DEFINTLEY TAKE HER ....
Sevin is excellent. She knows what she's teaching because she has done it in the real world and knows how to teach it. Always willing to help out and is very responsive to her emails.
This course has too much material for such a short amount of time, but Sevin does all she can to teach it to you. Uses every second. Read before class, do homework and practice exams.
Great Acct intro teacher, she knows her stuff. Most find the class very difficult, but it's not fairly easy if you have ANY previous basic Acct knowledge. I highly recommend taking her.
She is an awesome teacher! One of the best I have ever had. She is great at making hard topics easy to understand. I definately recommend taking her.
She is a great professor; I highly recommend taking her. She really cares about her students and does what she can to help. Provides extra credit on quizzes. Must go to class everyday. All accouting exams are common and made by the department head.
Sometimes her happiness is seems a little overboard, but she is a good professor. Gives extra credit on quizzes. Explains and reviews things well.
Dr Sevin is what we can expect from a university professor, talented, well spoken, desire to pass the torch of knowledge. Helpful with the subject is her approach to give inet handouts to follow her lectures. Take her and enjoy a good class!
She is a good professor and very happy all the time..she cares about her students. At the beg. of the yr when she says to do your hw...do your hw!! Even tho I was in class everyday, I struggled bc I didnt do the hw. Tests are made by the dept. and I found them hard...go to class, DO UR HW and listen
she is very fake. she makes it seem like she cares about you and your grades, but in the end she doesn't. she has no problem making you feel like crap in front of the whole class, and she's a little too (fake)happy.
Definitely agree with the other guy, she has no problem making you feel like crap in front of everyone. The class is very hard and you rush through everything. Beware.
one word... LIABIWITIES. She is an annoying professor and her laugh is straight up fake. She does a horrible job with teaching, and i had to teach myself everything. Beware
other than the annoying voice, the class isn't that bad. doesn't care if you come in late (i was like 20 min late all the time)..class itself is pretty easy, just study for tests, and don't forget to print out notes for next class.
Very good professor, if you don't think so then the business world is not for you. She has been by far the best professor for accounting I have had. I am a senior in it and believe me there is no professor who can teach it better!
this teacher is really annoying, but if you actually do the woerk, youll do ok
She looks a bit abrasive but she turned out to be very nice. She has no problem helping out if you'd just ask. Go to class and you'll get by. The class is hard, but that's because its accounting, not because she's teaching it.
accounting is bad no matter who teaches it. sevin goes too fast to keep up. quizzes help your grade.
This is a great professor. She teaches fast so plan to keep up! Make sure you come to class b/c attendance is taken! If you come come you won't have to read the book much. Her notes are very thorough. There are quizzes on each chapter that can be difficult if you don't study. Study and do the homework and you should get an A.
Dr. Sevin is really a nice professor. Helps you out when you have a million and one questions. Go to class and do well on the quizzes then you shouldn't have a problem on the actual test.
teaches very fast. must keep up on homework and studying. gives quizzes on every chapter, and takes attendance. class is easy for those familiar with accounting, but not for those that are clueless..like me. only need the book for the homework
This is a hard subject and most people will struggle. She GIVES LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE UR GRADE(PROJECTs, etc.) She is sooooooooooooo helpful and will bend over backwards to make sure you understand the material.
she knows what she's talking about, is very clear and helpful but goes really fast-it helps to be awake in class; takes attendance and gives quiz on each chapter; class is pretty tough but a lot easier if you do the hw
i like the professor, but i HATE the class!! you basically have to teach yourself the material because all the exams are common exams, and she goes through the material pretty quickly just so she can make sure she covers it all for the common exams...i still hate the class...accounting just flat out SUCKS
She is very clear in her lectures. You'll need to stay on top of things in this class or you will get lost. She is approachable so don't be afraid to ask questions. Make sure to do your homework so you can ace the weekly quizzes.
She is THE BEST professor to take for acct. She clearly explains everything, its a tough class but just keep up with the homework and you can make an A or a B no matter what anyone else says. She is helpful and ALWAYS available for questions and responds to emails quickly. All I can say is TAKE HER!!! you will learn alot!
such a sweet woman. Talks like elementary school teacher. Always smiling.
Excellent Professor! Dr.Sevin knows what she is talking about. She has experience in the field of accounting and teaching. I would take her class again in a heart beat. Study for her quizzes, they can be difficult..she just wants you do to well on the tests. Go to class, read, go to her if you have a question. Highly recommend Dr. Sevin to anyone!
I liked the subject and loved the teacher! If you just go to class and read the book before exams, you should get at least a B. She makes it easy to understand and notes are very helpful.
Awesome professor. Cares how you do and is crystal clear about everything. If you want to learn and do well take her. This is a hard subject, but you can't do a better job then her at teaching it.
She is really helpful. Her notes in class are really helpful. I used the study guide more than the book. I wish she was teaching management acct
she is a decent teacher but feels more like a high school classroom room than a college calls people out for whispering and leaving early. She is nice but the class moves to fast and is acctg is one of the reasons i am changing from business
Okay teacher. You follow along and fill in the pre written notes she give to you. She assigns alot of homework that is just plain stupid. Its nothing like the test and really just takes up your time. She defintly knows here accounting stuff but is computer challanged. Has a hard time using the new stuff in the class rooms which takes up time.
She's a good teacher. The tests are hard, but the department head makes them, not the teachers. Easy to work with outside of class and email back fast. She also makes it easy to understand if you come to class.
She is a good teacher. She will help students get through the course. You really need the book, and you must do the online homework, if you pay attention and go to class every day, you will be fine.
She's really nice and explains the work clearly. Notes are easy to take because they are fill in blank of what she says. A TON of homework on wileyplus EVERY class. The third test is the hardest. One case study to complete with a group and a few quizzes. She is really educated on the subject and teaches it well. She was nice.
This is the best teacher i've ever had. She was the reason I chose Accounting as my major. Made everything extremely understandable and easy. It's not the easiest subject, but if you goto class, copy down her notes (Which she hands out, you just fill in blanks) you'll do fine. I recommend her to everyone, and wish she taught higher level ACCT.
If you are not taking this class to be an accounting major make sure you constantly keep up with the tons of homework, quizes, in class quizes and tricky exams. Good luck! Youre going to need it!
I have to say that accounting is not my thing especially that I?m not going to majoring in it; people in the business department must cancel those accounting courses from the pre business program and replace it with finance or marketing courses. Any way this class was not easy at all a lot of homework?s and quizzes besides the tricky exams. I waste
Great professor, hard class. She is very helpful, attendance is mandatory but you will want to come anyways or else you will be lost. Book not needed. Study, go to SI, and do the homework! It really helps.
She is a very helpful professor!! Her lectures keep you interested and are fill in the blank. Go to class, listen, sit near the front, ask questions, do the hw. I hardly ever cracked open the textbook and I made A's on the tests. There is also SI and business fraternity tutoring offered, but i didnt use any of it!
very nice professor. Her lectures are very detailed and she provides outlines. Attendance is mandatory because she ask clicker questions. Test are tricky but great teacher.
She is very helpful but man i went to the bathroom once and i came back got completely lost on the chapter but overall good teacher
Take another professor instead of her. Doesn't take time to help students or answer questions or exlplain material. pretty stuck up and will give pop quizzes like a b*tch on mornings after big events like Halloween and stuff like that
She is a great prof! Her notes are great, fill in the blank and with examples. Practice examples! Online homework mandatory and strict deadlines. GO TO CLASS! be noticed by sitting near the front, asking questions(before or after class!). Don;t underestmate the material but it's not impossible to make an A. She's a great prof!
great teacher for an introductory accounting class. notes are outlined online and you fill in blanks/examples. never really used the book except for like 4 times to do examples. connect homework i recommend as a grade booster. semester group project is soooo easy. GO TO CLASS AND YOU WILL DO WELL.
She is one of the nicest professors at UNCC! Tests are pretty easy if you go to class and pay attention while she works through the problems.
Dr. Sevin is a very good professor. The class is definitely not easy. I had to show up to class every day and keep up with the notes to understand what was going on. Also need to constantly keep up with the individual homework assignments online, I missed a few on accident. She is very consistent with notes and very clear about the coursework.
This is not a hard class if you pay attention in class, take good notes, and do the required homework. She is always willing to help, whether it is during class or afterward in her office. You need to attend class regularly to answer graded clicker questions. Overall, as long as you put in some effort, there is no reason for you to do poorly.
Amazing teacher, I had no intentions to be an Accountant but after her class I'm changing my major.
Dr. Sevin is awesome! Taking her class re-affirmed my decision to be an accounting major. Her teaching style is very structured and organized, which was great given the subject matter. I found myself studying the chapter handouts from class much more than the book. It is not hard to get an A in this class, just pay attention and do the HW.
Great teacher. Got to class pay attention and you will do fine- test are just like any other test just study.
She is a great professor and really explains things well. As long as you go to class, pay attention, and stay up to date on the HW assignments, there's no reason why you shouldn't make at least a B.
Not very helpful when it came to answering questions. Not inspiring as far a professor goes. Stated that if the students didn't do well on the first test consider the class failed. I found that rude and unnecessary. Though the homework assignments were helpful, I feel like the tutors did a better job of teaching the material.
She is a nice motherly lady, but she extrememly over-teaches this class. She includes lots of info that is not on any test or quiz so kind of misleads on some of the material and at the end of the day it matters whats on tests and quizzes. Not very helpful, vague with responses. Overall, do homework, study hard for quiz & Tests and you will pass.
She is a very clear speaker and interesting to listen to, but class can be tricky. She is willing to work with you. I got a C but if I were to go back in time I would definitely go to the tutoring sessions she kept talking about. Not a bad teacher, just be ready to put in your share of the work.
I thought she was great, explained everything in detail and helped get me through some difficult material, and Intermediate Accounting is one of the most difficult Acct. classes you will take, and because of her I got an A. Thanks!!
Great Professor. Her study guides are extremely helpful. She made accounting understandable, just pay attention and you will have an easy A.
Come to class everyday,DAILY clicker questions easy points to receive, Print out guided notes, Do DO IT book questions and homework they are about 95% of the Tests. Overall easy teacher and very helpful. STUDY STUDY STUDy and go to SI you will do well
Great professor.She is clear,structured,and concise.There are no surprises.If you like to skip class this is not the course or major for you unless you are a genius because I have above average intelligence, and without going to class and doing hw I would've been lost.Approach this course like a math course and you'll be fine.I will finish with A-
This is a very difficult class, but she is a good professor. She talks fast and flies through the material. Go to every single class, print the handouts before each class, always do the optional homework. She offers extra credit, but you must get it 100% correct to get your 1 point. Overall, I would take her again.
Dr. Sevin was the best instructor I had in the Belk College. Her instruction is very clear and concise. She is always willing to help with any difficulties you may have. She is also very friendly and maintains a sense of humor. I look forward to taking Advanced Accounting with her in the MACC program.
Great Professor. Learned so much from this course. Attendance isn't mandatory but if you want the clicker points & make a good grade, DO NOT MISS CLASS!! It is easy to get behind if you miss one day. Her tests are very similar to the homework. She gives you plenty of practice problems to sharpen your skills for the tests.
I loved Math until I got in this class. She flies through material, doesn't really give a care in the world about your grade. My friend died the day I took the test and she wouldn't let me take it at another time. I would never recommend her and the tests were SO confusing. If she taught slower and less then it would work. She was really cocky.
This is a very fast paced class no matter who is teaching it. There is a lot of information and Dr. Sevin does a very good job presenting the material. Her homework and quizzes are fair representation of her tests.
Beware: to me her class is too fast. Her test are hard because she will try to trick you. You will not have enough time for test because they are long (6-8+) pages no lie and i recommend mynatt because she teaches like the book. Sevin makes u print off notes and does things the difficult way in my opinion. Shes rushy & ancy like
It doesn't matter who you take in Accounting overall they all kinda suck. But I wouldn't recommend her or Guinn her easiness is really a 1.9 my opinion
Hands down the best accounting professor at UNC Charlotte. She doesn't teach straight from a boring book and she gives great examples through her experience, which she has a lot of. Simplest professor for this course. Mynatt is much more difficult and teaches from a publisher PowerPoint. Do the extra credit and go to class.
By far the best accounting professor at UNC Charlotte. Always answers your questions and helps you whenever you need it. She offers extra credit, which the others did not. She relates the material to real life situations, and personal experience. Was a thrill to take, and had the class laughing. Overall, she is the best!!!!
Honestly a really good professor here at uncc just follow the notes and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE and go to SI if you are having trouble
This teacher was very structured and everything must adhere to her structure no matter what! She was not helpful one bit. Her answer to most every question was "Did you check the book" or "Its in the book". Did not like her at all.
The best professor I have had in my time here at UNCC. She is not the easiest but I guarantee you will learn the material with her and it will stick with you. Honestly wish she taught 2122 as well because I would take that class without thinking twice.
Dr. Sevin is the best Accounting professor in the department. She is absolutely clear on what she expects to you, gives you guidance throughout the semester and prepares you very well for exams. Now. One thing to note: Accounting is not easy and it is certainly not for everyone. But if you want to understand the topic, take Sevin.
Goes through lectures pretty quick and gives plenty of material to study but come test time and it's like her problems are on steroids. One of the toughest courses I have taken in all my years at UNCC. Doesn't really care much about her students. Take someone else if you can.
Worst professor ever. Take someone else and save yourself the trouble.
extremely tough teacher, avoid her if you can. if you take her prepare to study your but off and still not pass
Connect HW every night. Then optional extra credit problems. The extra credit is a must for an A. She's as clear as you can be in Accounting. Really comes down to studying outside of class though. She was always prepared, fill in the blank notes for every chapter, posted all the book answers, broke down the test topics the class before the exam.
She is very bubbly, nice, and well respected. She moves quickly, but it's because there is so much to learn. She really wants the best for her students, but expects you to do the work and study hard. Overall, she is one of my favorite professors.
I took Sevin's class back in Spring 2015. She has very clear grading criteria and she also gives you fill in the blank notes for lecture. Although she can go through the material quickly, she's very friendly and doesn't mind answering students' question. Best professor I've had here, anyone else that rates her terribly just didn't put in the work.
Dr Sevin turned out to be one my favorite professors I have had. The class is straight forward. Hand outs on Moodle, easy HW, easy clicker questions. Show up, pay attention, do the hw. She is literally taking notes for you, just copy. I would rate easiness a 5 but some people do struggle, read the chapters before class if you are.
Sevin is an awesome professor! She gives you specific examples and explains them thoroughly. It is a hard class because of the material, but she makes it as simple as possible. Exams require studying but are do-able. She also gives up to twenty points of extra credit throughout the semester. Take this professor!
Professor Sevin is one of my favorite professors at UNCC. The material can be challenging but between in-class examples, extra practice, and extra credit she gives students many opportunities to master it. Studying and coming to class are a must, but she provides homework answers, and tests are almost always straight off material she's posted.
Have to attend classes to understand content. Exams and homework are fairly tough. Overall very clear and concise course. Would recommend it!
Clicker points in class, weekly HW, occasional quizzes, and 3 exams plus a cumulative final. Exams are all MC and can be tricky. She is great at answering questions and the guided notes will be your floatation device throughout the course. Very possible to make an A, but you do have to put in the work.
Professor Sevin is an amazing professor. Go to class and study hard and you'll do well. Her practice problems are the best study guide there is and you will get an A or a B if you study them!
People debate whether Joe Flacco is elite. There is no question, Professor Sevin is elite.
Dr. Sevin is amazing! One of the hardest classes I've taken (the subject is difficult), and one of my few Bs, but I learned more from her than any other class in the Acctg Dept. She is always happy to help students and encourages questions. She made sure we understood before moving on to new topic. If you want to learn accounting, TAKE HER!
I hated accounting after barely surviving ACCT 3311. Professor Sevin made me love it again and inspired me to move forward in my career as an accountant. Study hard and you'll ace this class. She gives you everything you need to be successful.
This professor teaches and talks so fast. Although she prints out the notes for us and we just have to fill in the blank, she goes through it as if we already would know the material. For any accounting class, I believe you would only really learn by doing your homework. Also studying is a major key for this class.
Great professor!! This is not an easy course, but she delivers the material in a way that makes it easy to understand. This is a face paced course, but she gives you supplemental problems that make it possible to succeed. Do the optional homework several times before an exam and rework all class problems.
If you need to take accounting 2121 she is the prof. Just go to class and print out the notes, the printable notes make sure there is much less writing. The tests are just like the notes and if you study then getting an A in this class is extremely easy.
Intermediate 2 is one of the hardest classes in the accounting department, but Dr. Sevin does her best to make it manageable. She gives you clear notes, her practice exams are similar to the tests. She is available for help & answers your questions promptly. You have to dedicate time to this class, but she does her best to help you out.
probably the hardest class I've ever taken. Exams are super hard and don't look anything like her lecture handouts or practice problems she posts. Seems like she's trying to trick you with the wording. You will have to grind very hard for an A or B in this class but she is helpful and very knowledgeable about the subject!
Definitely one of the hardest classes I've taken. Dr. Sevin is an amazing professor! Print out lecture handouts and fill them in during class. Do her extra practice problems (not graded) to study for exams. This is a professor you can visit and chat with about your goals and even potential career! She's definitely one you want to have.
Amazing professor! Would take her again in a heartbeat! She teaches some of the hardest classes at UNCC and makes the material understandable. Definitely take Sevin if you have the chance to, you will come out having a strong knowledge of accounting. She genuinely cares for her students and even tries to help students with career goals.
If I could take Dr. Sevin again, I would do it in a heartbeat! Intermediate Accounting is hard to begin with and she makes it as simple as she possibly can by providing fill-in-the-blank notes for lectures. She also available to discuss anything from lectures to career decisions. Best professor I've taken yet!
Very good professor; very knowledgeable. for ACCT 2121 probably your best option if you want to learn the material. she goes over the material very quick but is there if you ever have questions. Homework is online and pretty challenging. She gives guided notes that help out a lot. I would recommend.
during class, all you do is print out papers for every chapter and Ms. Sevin will go over it at the good pace and we have to fill in blanks and work on some examples. during class, it seems all easy, but tests and quizzes are super tough and not very similar to how she teaches us in the class. 3 multichoice tests during semester plus final.
I had Dr. Sevin for 3312 (twice) and 6270. Her classes are very straightforward but require a TON of work. It also doesn't help that her classes cover a ton of material that may not all flow together. Take every extra credit opportunity available.
Very well structured class. Expectations are made extremely clear. Plenty of supplementary material available on canvas. Has an answer available immediately for every question you ask her. Organized and competent, would absolutely take her classes again.
This is a difficult course but she provides all the resources to be successful in it. Her lectures include all the necessary information to do well on the homework and exams. She is smart, kind, and the perfect accounting professor.
Professor Sevin is very strict about academic integrity and tells you what she expects from day one. For tests do all the reviews posted online and be prepared to study a lot. This course is heavily test weighted and her poll everywhere questions are a must.
Dr. Sevin is one of the best professors I've had. She genuinely cares about her students and sometimes that is in the form of tough love. She is a pro when it comes to acct 2121 ( a very difficult class); she gives out guided notes and goes over everything. I dropped this class with another professor, but had no issues with Mrs. Sevin.
Do! not! take her if you are not an accounting major!! She barely explains the material and expects you to already know it! Quizzes are hard Tests are hard! I studied so hard and got horrible grades on everything! Many other accounting professors make it much easier to pass, she makes it very hard!
Both 3312 classes are hard. BUT both professors are great. No matter who you have, you will be fine. That being said, Dr. Sevin is amazing!! Print-out lectures, extra credit, tells you what's on exam, kind, great examples, gives you all the HW answers so it's an automatic 100 grade on those. She won't waste your time any more than needed. GOAT!
Great professor for accounting. Loved her. Tests and quizzes are really hard. Doing the homework isn't sufficient enough. Do practice a LOT. Material is straight forward. Pure logic class. Gives notes handout. You have to work for your grade though.
Prof was extremely unhelpful and disinterested when emailed or gone to for help with homework or to go over tests. Notes in class seem easy, but tests and quizzes are completely different from the notes and homework. If you ask a question during, before, or after class she will always make you feel like an idiot for asking even.
The first thing she tells you is 30% of the class will drop it before the drop deadline this is very true. Goes through notes really fast. Quizzes are based on homework. Can't memorize you have to understand the concepts to do good in the class.
Professor Sevin is a very kind and caring person. She comes to class with a smile on her face everyday and can make boring lectures somewhat fun. She gives links to study guides for tests. Homework and quizzes make up a decent percentage of your grade but if you put in the time, you can easily get a 100 on those (thats how I got an A in the class).
This was my second time taking accounting and sevin was AMAZING. She gave guided notes and told you what you needed to know for the exams. Gives you a week notice for any quizzes. Lectures are Interesting and full of examples. I wish she taught accounting 2
Loved her teaching style. All you need to do is print out her notes online and bring them to class to succeed. I learned a lot I her class and I might switch to accounting major because of her.
Loved Dr. Sevin! Amazing lectures with guided notes. Lots of examples done in class. Always clarifies questions. I was still unsure of what business major to choose but after this class I knew accounting was it. Would highly recommend this professor.
I took this fall 2020 so, it's "online/ hybrid" She is kind of paranoid about cheating, so you've got respndus lockdown browser and webcam turned on. She teaches extremly fast and her handwriting is poor. YOU MUST HAVE ACCESS TO A PRINTER. If you want even a chance to pass. Absolutely try and attend tutoring and breakout sections.
This class is hard. Her notes are good but the questions on the test are more applicable and the notes don't help at all. The homework takes a lot of time to do and is a little easier than the test. Definitely go to tutoring at the first sign of failure. It only gets harder. She is nice but she makes her tests very hard.
Professor Sevin is tough, she is very strict and set on her rules regarding her syllabus. Do not try to turn anything in late. Pay attention to her notes THEY WILL HELP. This class is pretty difficult but so is any other accounting class you take. Good luck.
Great professor, her lectures were very informative and relatively easy to understand. The class itself is slightly difficult but if you try on the homework you will understand the material as it is repetitive. She genuinely wants everyone to pass and always makes sure to see if we understand during lectures.
Dr. Seven was an amazing professor! Her video lectures are a little long but very comprehensive.
Sevin seems like a good professor at first but you soon find out she barely teaches, such just reads off of a word document and expects everyone to understand. When it comes to test, they're worth 80 percent of your grade, and they are nothing like class examples, homework, or resources she provides. Her tests are by far the hardest I have ever had
Overall, she is a good choice over others in the accounting program. Tests (open note) are easy if you watch lectures and do homework. You can't view test feedback unless you went in person. This class rarely stressed me out as deadlines are the same every week. Lecture video quiz due night before class, homework due Friday night 5pm. Take her!!
Be prepared to do a lot of time consuming homework and print print print. I took this coming out of covid and she was not understanding or flexible at all! Very upsetting that she was not available to meet out of class. You also cant review your exams you must meet with her to print them out and if you're not available on her schedule oh well.
Avoid, this professor is very hard to please. First off, she is one of the professors that is gung-ho on using Lockdown Browser at every chance. She is also paranoid about students cheating to the point that she imposes unusual hindering practices. Sometimes her specific instructions are unclear but she'll penalize you for not following perfectly.
Expects you to know Accounting. Used chegg to try and guide me through the homework and that took me over 4 hours to complete with Wiley plus "the worst software ever" Over an hour and a half lectures where she just talks at you, 3-4 hours of homework per day, and hour of prerecorded videos and a quiz daily. This was summer school but DO NOT TAKE!!
Great professor, very knowledgeable and kind! Took it during the summer, so course load is a little heavy but it's definitely manageable! Tests are open-note but with Respondus. Practicing the material is critical, but she is more than happy to help you understand it. Definitely recommend her. Class is probably way easier during a regular semester.
She has clear expectations. Homework takes some time! Took during summer! It is a course you must understand if you're going into business, and she does her best to make sure you do. If you have a question ask her, and she will be there for you. You do need to work in this class, especially during summer. Repetition is The KEY to success!
Dr. Sevin is a wonderful professor. Helpful, knowledgeable, and accessible outside of class. This is a hard course, but she makes it very understandable with her premade notes - and you can use them on exams! 100% would take again.
DO NOT TAKE HER!! she is one of the worst professors I have ever had, she is not helpful at all no extra credit and no curve. The tests are nothing like what she teaches. She is not willing to help students pass at all, the class average for the exam 2 was a 58 and she blamed us. ive never had this much anxiety taking a class. Pick another prof!!!!
Sucks absolutely sucks super sassy not helpful test 2 class average was an F and she didn't care one bit. Course was taught a new way and it sucked. Don't take her in person ever.
She gives notes that are helpful. But you will spend most of your time working on hw which is nothing like the test. No curves and for the class was a 58 on tests. Also she must have changed things because we are not allowed notes anymore like the reviews say.
First week of class she told us if we got covid, it was our fault and she wouldnt accommodate for us. The class average for exam 2 was a 58 and we were told to just drop the class if we failed instead of being offered any help. She seems to pride herself on failing students and being difficult. Dont take this class with her.
She gives lectures daily but goes VERY fast. Attendance is taken by poll everywhere questions. Homework takes HOURS. Tests are not covered on the hw or the notes. Class averages on tests are around 55% and she doesnt care or offer help. No review days. Doesnt care about student affected by covid. Prepare to give your whole life to this class.
This class is a show Ive never seen a teacher watch her students fail , this class is ridiculous with test averages of 46 every test which also weighs 75% of your grade you would think that she would curve it or give extra credit but she would not instead she will tell you good luck next time
I understand this class is difficult for others, but this is my personal experience. I appreciated Dr. Sevin's experience in accounting, and her system of notes/homework/test review materials. Tests are a big challenging, as this is supposed to be a weeding out course, so make sure to do ample practice problems and spread out studying.
This class is a difficult class but that isn't Dr. Sevin's fault. She has been the best professor I have had in college. The tests are hard but that goes with every accounting class. Go to class and study and you will do fine. She is super nice and I genuinely enjoyed going to her lectures. She is the reason I switched my major to accounting.
Worst class I have ever taken! Sevin is very rude. Test average for Test 2 was an F and she told the class to either drop the class if you failed. Did not offer any help. Other professors allowed cheat sheets for the tests and of course she did not allow that. I finished the class with a 79.31 and there is no extra credit. Never made a C before.
Personally I thought Dr. Sevin did a great job preparing us for future accounting courses. She made it so we actually had to study and learn the content (versus using a cheat sheet like other profs). She also gave guided notes that were super helpful. If you complete the homework you will start to understand all the concepts we learn. Take her :)
Dr. Sevin is the best professor ive ever taken. This class is extremely difficult but she gives several opportunities for help like tutoring, time after class, etc. Cheating in this class will not work as the tests are very difficult so you do need to actually study. She is very sweet and I would love to take her again.
Can't stand this teacher! Best advice I can give is to stay away from her. This rating does not fit her at all, I can't believe people actually think she can be a 5. She is way to strict and I feel like she treats the class like middle schoolers.
This class is easy unless you're stupid. She gives out guided lecture notes so just show up to class and pay attention lol.
She gives great lectures and is fair with homework/tests, but she won't let us use graphing calculators, and instead we have to use dollar store calculators, which aren't always the most reliable and can really throw you off during a test.
This lady scares me, she is very nice and gives very nice guided notes, but she goes way too fast, and her homework does not help with the tests at all
Dr. Sevin is a wonderful teacher. Trust me if you value what you're learning take Dr. Sevin. She is clearly an expert. If you use her guided notes, ask questions, do the homework, and study, you will get an A. Attendance doesn't count against you, just know that you'll miss important info like dates of quizzes and miss out on the guided notes.
She is VERY structured and keeps to a very strict schedule on all notes. She won't post any of the lectures online so if you miss class you miss those notes. I personally learn well under very well structured classes so for me I felt she did a good job. She can be sassy if you try to interrupt her lecture with a question lol.
I was better off teaching myself on YouTube and textbook. She goes super fast and is a tough grader. Professor Sevin is kind and sweet but lectures super, super fast. Gives extra credit on her test but they are tough and time-limited, be ready to study.
This is the second time I have taken one of Professor Sevins classes and I would go out of my way to make sure she was one of my accounting professors again (if i had the opportunity). She actually wants her students to pass. Test can be difficult but she lets you know what is on exams/quizzes. Plenty of practice problems prior to exam (is helpful)
Professor Sevin is great. I recommend for any accounting class. I've her for ACCT 2121 and 3323. She provides lecture handouts. Only complaint was tests were long and I was always barely finishing or missing a couple questions. But overall she is great. She paces well throughout the semester with lectures and homework.
Really cares about the students and genuinely wants you to learn and be successful. Her tests and quizzes need to be studied for, but she makes it easy to prepare. One of the best lecturers I have ever had as well.
Her notes are on paper so if you forget to print them you can't even write them. Attendance isnt required but if you miss the notes arent even on canvas. Her tests are way too much for the amount of time given and many of us never completely finished any test. Honestly she wouldnt be so bad if she just put stuff on canvas to help just a little bit.
Very sweet person, but my God is she ever a tough grader. Tests alone made up ~65% of the course grade, Smartbook assignments carried no weight, extra credit is essentially a foreign concept in that class.
