Reviews of professor Gerard Ortiz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof Ortiz is great! He made finance more engaging than I thought it could be, explained material well, answered questions fully, & is just a really solid prof. The class is hard, there's no way to get around that, but if you pay attention, do HW, & use the HW website's study practice problems, you'll see similar questions to the exam before tests!

Professor Ortiz is a good professor. However, his lectures can be very boring and the work is so difficult. You will need to go to the Anderson lab in order to be successful in this class. They will be the reason you pass your exams and get 100's on your data cases.

Ortiz's finance lectures are easy to understand and cover everything well. He also works tons of practice problems. The grade is mostly hw, data cases, and a couple of exams. Understand the hw and the data cases and the exams are pretty easy. Attendance is mandatory.

His tests are HARD but are FAIR! The questions on the exam are relative easy but there is so much content to study. My advice, use the study plan and go to the Finance Lab! Out of all the tests he only gave 1 four part problem. Practice the problems he gives in class! CON -monotone voice & fast paced/using pre-made powerpoints. Take screenshots!

Ortiz is the best professor you can get for MGMT 326. Go to class everyday, apply yourself, and ask questions. Wish he taught Advanced Corporate Finance.
