Reviews of professor Quan Wen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The 2 quizzes were impossibly difficult as was the final. There was very little correlation between what was learned in class and what was on the exam and quizzes.

Professor Wen's class was not well suited for the half-semester format. He spent half the lectures teaching CAPM, which was covered in the prereq class. Then, he sped through the actually interesting material like time-series studies. A large portion of the final grade is a group project where you build a stock portfolio and write a report.

Prof. Wen was a fine choice for POI. His assessment materials were fair and all of his slides were posted -- so a lot of people didn't ever come to class. He always responds to emails very quickly, even on weekends / late at night, and he's very willing to meet with students. One note is that he didn't make any effort to learn students' names.

The lectures are so boring but fairly important to go to because he'll give out information on the tests, projects, or homeworks. He is a super smart and caring guy. If you go see him outside of class you will notice that immediately. I found this class interesting but the tests were hard

Class lectures were not interesting at all. He doesn't know anyone's name, nor does her care if you are in class. There are super limited assignments that are graded, so if you mess up on one, it could ruin your grade. Directions for the final project were very vague.
