Reviews of professor Yin Xu

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Don't be swayed by the bad reviews you see, Xu is a great professor. Lectures are essentially her working through problems from the textbook, and homework assignments are almost exactly what you learned in class. Exams were pretty challenging, however, if you devote time into studying you will be FINE! Lovely woman, wish I could take her again.

Very organized. The class is difficult, but as long as you come to class, review examples and her powerpoints you will get a good grade. Her tests are straight forward exactly like the material covered in class.

Dr. Xu is a great professor! Her lectures and ppt are clear. Go to class, take notes, do homework, and you will do well in her class.

The entire class is lecture-based off what you do in the homework. If I had to guess 80% of her exams are studying what is in the book and the rest of the exam is what she taught you in class. If your a little more on the lazy side, you are not going to pass this class, you need to be proactive. Everyone around me got no higher than a 40% on exam1

If you attend lectures and study her slides, you will a 100% get an A. Her finals are not cumulative which I absolutely love. If you don't attend lecs, homework will suffice too (you are going to have to do homework anyways). No bulls**t and very professional teacher.

Would never take a class with her again. She makes the class so hard.The homework takes me upwards of 3 hours for 10 questions. she moves too fast in class. most of my class is struggling with the material. I think she forgets that we havent been doing accounting for years and that this isnt Yale its the less trashy version of bama.
