This course is difficult, but if you have to take it definately take it from Morgan. She does all of the homework in class so that no one is left behind. All of the mathematical problems that are required on skill quizzes and exams are done in class. There is a lot of hype that the class is difficult, it is only demanding like a mini math course.

I wish this class was split over two semesters. It covers a ton of info quickly. Luckily, Terri has this class down to a science. She rushes through this class and barely manages to cover all of it before the semester ends, yet she does it thoroughly and clearly. Take FIN 3200 from her if you can.

Fantastic professor! Wants students to actually learn the material, not just "learn for the test". Explains the why and the how clearly and is available outside of class as well. She does not play games, meaning that she will tell you what is on the skill quizzes and exams and will not leave you "in the lurch" wondering what to expect. A+

This may be the most disappointed I have ever been in a class/professor. Class consists of a reading of authors textbook answers, reading of text slide, and off hand in-class assignments. I felt like the professor put very little thought and effort into the class. All learning was on my own, she was zero help. If you have any other option take it!!

She is not an amazing teacher at all. She'd show up late almost every day, keep class late, and get annoyed if people left on time. She also HATES when you ask questions in class. She moves very fast and doesnt want to be slowed down. All she does is read slides off a powerpoint. Very little teaching involved. Gets snappy if you ask her to clarify

Dr. Morgan's vocab questions on her test are my biggest complaint. Those were very unclear. And she moves extremely fast and tries to cram far too much info into one class period. However, I think she was an extremely helpful instructor. She tells you exactly what problems will be on exams, and is willing to spend time outside of class to help.

First impressions of Professor Morgan tend to be bad. But over the course of the semester, if you give your honest 110% effort, do as she says, participate, study, ask questions, and adapt to her instructing methods, you'll pass the class. Moreover, you will realize she knows her material, has real-world experience in the field, and respect her for the great professor she is. I will take as many classes as I can from her.

This is a great class that is helpful for all majors, but taught in a very poor way. Professor Morgan is the only one who teaches it. Prepare to read and review a lot. Spreadsheet assignments that are supposed to be helpful to grasp concepts, but end up confusing you more than helping you.

I had a rough time in 3200 like everyone else, so I was a little nervous to take 3350 but it has been Great! Nothing like 3200, no formulas to memorize or equations to work out. It's a ton of real world problems and concepts that aren't hard to learn because you can see them in real life. Prof Morgan is much more relaxed and fun in this class.

It's unfortunate that she is the only professor that teaches the class. If it's a required class for all business majors, make it part of the Fundamentals group. Otherwise, drop it from all but Finance majors. Or add other professors to teach the class. The only easy grade is the homework, which you don't do yourself.

This class is extremely difficult. The only way to take this class is in the summer by itself. She goes so fast that you struggle to even just copy down the homeworks let alone understand them. Quizzes are all-or-nothing and tests are not curved. Expect to study for hours every night. Knowledgeable about the material but not great at teaching it.

Dr. Morgan tries... a little too hard. I took Fin3200 online bc I had heard how terrible it was. Basically, I ended up with 3-4 hours of lecture + 3-4 hours for quizzes & spreadsheets. It doesn't feel like anything we learn ends up on the tests. I realize this class is required for bus. majors; take fewer credit hours because this class is ALOT

Be prepared to work super hard in this class. You'll be on your own for most of the homework and quizzes. She only gives zeros or full credit for assignments. Won't help students unless really pushed to- will only copy and paste homework instructions when a clarifying question is asked. A lot of assignments aren't taught in class or in the textbook

She is a sweet women but horrible professor. Can't believe how difficult this course was. Rather than learning about applicable finance we were taught to memorize formulas.

Nice professor and pretty responsive to questions. One of the most heavy and intensive courses I've taken.

This has been the toughest professor Ive had at Weber state. No formula sheets on exams. Class requires 6+ hours weekly. You have to get 100% on quizzes or you have to retake them. Teacher is extremely picky on how you answer problems. Class average on all exams was 68%. The only saving grace was an unexpected curve on class grades.

This class (financial institutions) was much easier than finance 3200. Really the only 'hard' part is the quiz every week. If you want to do decent you'll have to read the chapter. Also, every class is a mini group homework but she will come in and help your group make corrections as needed. I dislike finance but if you enjoy it this class is great

Do not take any classes from Terri Morgan. She has completely unrealistic expectations for her students like expecting them to commit 10+ hours a week to this ONE class. Having 12+ assignments a week. At most you'll have less then 24 hours to view, complete, and submit them. The class is inverted so you have to teach yourself finance with no help.

Comparing to FIN 3200, this class is a piece of cake. You have to attend class because you get a group assignment each class that is completed during class. Then you get a research assignment and a quiz each week. No exams. If I would've allocated more time, it could've been an easy A.

The structure of the class is very strict, you better follow it to the dot because she allows no room for mistakes. Often, in her lectures, she assigns breakout rooms to look up definitions and then present them, which is not beneficial for anyone's learning. She also will post quizzes, assessments, and homework, then has them due the next day
