Reviews of professor Gregory Gaynor

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Lectures are very thorough and relevant. He clearly has a passion for accounting. The tests aren't too hard, he provides problems to practice before the exam. He also curves generously. 100% on homework if you just try and it's 30% of the grade. No need for the book. I recommend attending the lectures even though it doesn't count toward your grade.

At first glance, Professor Gaynor's class seems great. Attendance is optional and homework is 36% of your grade. But there are two tests and they are EXTREMELY difficult. Both tests are 30 questions (not multiple choice), worth 32% each, and you are only given an hour to do them. You need to sign to Zoom on your phone and put it to the side of you.

DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY. Definitely the worse accounting professor Ive had so far. His best interest isn't to teach students as he says "too many students having a good grade will make the school seem dishonest and discredit our business program" He seems like a nice person but ur going to have to learn everything yourself. check out his UB reviews

Had 4 assignments due for the whole semester, and as long as you tried and turned them in, you would get a 100% on them and that was 33% of your grade. Then you have 1 midterm and 1 exam, each one worth 33% of your grade. Textbook is not required and I never looked at it, he gives study guides and explains well in class. He also curves generously.

Beware! 2 exams: midterm and final worth 32% each and 4 homeworks 9% each. The exams are FILL IN, 30 Questions w 60 minutes, you either know how to do the problems or you don't. Biggest complaint is not giving us enough time on the exams. Half of the class didn't complete the first exam on time. Its a Tues Thurs class but he only taught once a week

Acct 300B is just an overall tough class to begin with. Personally, the professor was pretty good and explained everything well. The only catch was that there was only 2 exams midterm & final & then 4 assignments and that was pretty much your grade. The exams were not multiple choice and all FILL IN. You really need to know the material.
