3A . Anderson R W 27 Days Ago

I think Professor Anderson gets a really bad rep based on a lot of ratings. He's actually a great professor, but the class itself can be challenging especially for those who are behind on the material, textbook, and lecture videos he posts. Really funny guy and teaches the subject well, as long as you want to learn it. Very useful material IRL.

ECON3A . Anderson R W 3 Months Ago

I couldn't attend lecture this quarter due to sports practice in the morning, so I relied solely on textbook and recorded lectures. Besides like the one point on each test where he drops a question about something he said in lecture the tests are all things you should know if you put the time in to study.

Bob is passionate about accounting but there is a lot you need to do outside of class to truly understand the material. Definitely attend lecture to get free answers to questions on the tests.

3A . Anderson R W 3 Months Ago

Paid tuition to have 3 hours per week listening to him talk random nonsense. Midterm and Final take up 70% of the grade and quizzes take 25%. No test resources, the only paper you find on Canvas is from 20 years ago, which doesn't help at all, since MCQs in the test are basically testing about his ramblings on the lecture. Ruined my whole quarter.

Didn't love him, but he teaches you accounting. Go to class as to not miss the trivia he puts on the tests. Class was difficult, but with proper studying and practice, you can definitely get an A. It's clear what to expect on exams, even if he throws in random curveballs.

Overall, this class gave me a good foundation for accounting basics. But I feel like his lecture style will not be everyone's cup of tea. He goes on lots of tangents to answer the most basic questions. Although lecture attendance isn't mandatory, you should go, as he mentions things in lectures that he doesn't in his prerecorded lectures.
