he is such an amazing teacher he makes accounting really easy to understand and really cares about his students. he puts all the old midterms online so if you just do all of them before the midterms you will definitely ace the class. i definitely recommend him!

Bob is the best! For those of you complaining about boredom, it's accounting, he makes it as interesting as its gonna get. Great guy great class, you do need to study. But he gives you old midterms to study off of and if you know them you're golden.

he's just awesome.a great professor.get to know the guy..if you think his jokes are lame in the beginning, give him a chance and he'll grow on you. Extremely helpful with questions, go to office hrs if you need help. He's a bit awkward at times, but thats just bob.for midterms: memorize lecture notes/do practice tests.*WARNING:The final is hard.

class is hard!! anderson is super boring and he doesn't help much either. do yourself a favor and don't take this class!

this was an awesome class with an awesome teacher

For those of you who are considering Acct major, if you think Bob is hard, then i think you should really think about if you want to change your major, because you have no chance at all to pass the CPA exam. The world out there isnt for your guys, go back to your kiddy garden.

He is a good professor. He posts practice tests that are pretty much the same as his current tests. He does throw in some random questions that have nothing to do with the subject and the only way you will know the answer is if you have gone to all the lectures.

He's a good teacher and funny too. All his slides are online so you dont have to take notes if you print them out. 2 midterms and final...he puts up practice midterms online. there are hw assignments online due before each class. Study, pay attention, and do practice problems and the A should be yours.

Bob is a great instructor. Just practice prior exams and your are set for the final and midterms

Bob is a friendly guy who makes every effort to ensure that his students are grasping the material. People **** about the class being hard because they think doing the online hw guarantees that they will do well. Accounting isn't super easy, but if you go to lecture, read, & actually do some practice problems besides the hw, you'll do fine.

honestly the worst professor i've ever had. egotistical and extremely unhelpful. makes the tests way to hard for the time period he allows. just took the final today and 75% of the class was not finished at his "two hour" mark, so he gave everyone five more min. GREAT. pretty much half the class is failing

I took ECON 3A awhile ago and now I'm in 136A with him again. He is by far my favorite economics professor. He rewards students that work hard and go to lecture, and doesn't stress me out at all. I love to go to his class and actually learn something practical!

Hilarious guy. Knows the material and explains it in a fun and understandable way. Its not an easy class but you will learn a lot.

Anderson is a huge doosh. He made the first two midterms super hard and the second one was not at all what anyone expected contentwise. He thinks he's hot stuff but trust me, he's a ginormous loser. Only an easy final allowed me to pull out a B in the class. I'd take it with Loster if he teaches the class again...I heard he's not bad.

Very good teacher. Keeps lectures to the point and uses the board and projector.

Effectively uses powerpoint, presents the material in a relevant manner,and always seems to be in a good mood. Unlike most Econ professors, Anderson does not have a ridiculous ego and is relatively proficient at teaching, not research.

Bob is good anyway

Excellent professor with a lot of experience in accounting. Obviously knows the topic very well & provides great and hilarious stories during lectures. Also helpful during office hours & always responds to your email/calls/questions immediately. One of the few professors who knows how to use a combo of PowerPoint slides & the board effectively.

professor is hard. material is easy enough, but lots of busy work. assigns stupid, unclear, misleading project. when you ask him for help he is very vague and just says "answer the question", then marks you down when you aren't wordy and superflous in your answer.

the first midterm was alright. second midterm was completely different from the exams from previous years. final was different as well. final was hard! make sure you do the lab early. i waited until the last minute and it wasn't very fun. I finished though.

Bob is the best accounting teacher I've had so far at UCSB! He makes the class very interesting, and he's really funny guy. You can call him whenever you want and he actually answers his phone and is wiling to help you. I actually really wanted to go to class at 9:30am every time to hear him lecture. Also, he lets us out 20 mins early most days.

The best accounting teacher I have encountered thus far at UCSB. At 8 AM the class is actually pretty interesting, which is quite an accomplishment. He is straight-forward and very clear with his expactations. His tests are very fair. You'll learn alot, or at least I did. Reccomended.

Boring, boring, boring. Thinks he's really cool cause he rides a skateboard and tries to wear Billabong with his loafers. Nope, still not cool. Has a bit of an attitude and is kinda a dick towards students. He goes way to fast through the material, beware...
