CollegeBest professor I've had at this school so far. Scott is a great lecturer and he makes his expectations very clear at the beginning of the quarter. It is a difficult class, but if you put in the work, your grade will reflect that.
LOVE SCOTT!!! Best professor ever! Very difficult class tho…but it is curved!
Scott is the best possible accounting professor, he is super nice and very savvy in the material he covers. I would especially recommend this class due to the Simulations we do in class where he emulates a conversation with an actual CFO. However, the final portion of this class is self taught in the background during the sims which sucks.
This class was so much work for a pre-major class. Get ready to spend several hours every single week reading the textbook + doing the WileyPlus hw problems, which are extremely challenging (TAs sometimes get them wrong too) + doesn't even reflect questions on his difficult exams. !! He also imposes a curve so that only 10% of students get an A !!!
The course is hard content-wise: you have to CRITICALLY understand the concepts. HOWEVER, this class added A LOT OF UNNECESSARY stress. He structures the class where only 10% of students get As, so you are COMPETING AGAINST OTHERS. I haven't seen any other professor in the Econ department do this (even though he says it's a department requirement).
Amazing lecturer, willing to help you with anything that you have trouble. Just make sure you're on top of the content and get help when needed. The TAs are also super helpful with homework and any questions that you have.
