Reviews of professor Christopher Manos

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Very rude and unforgiving. Not understanding at all. Zoom classes are mandatory and he makes you keep your cameras on. Calls on random people during class. Makes you feel stupid. On a test I asked him a question and he said "read the directions." Doesn't know how to teach, just reads off slides. Tests are difficult and worth way too much.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! Lack of empathy towards students during this pandemic. Don't think there was 1 pset he graded correctly. Psets are timed, like who even times homework? Doesn't respond to piazza often. A very lazy professor that does not take responsibility of his mistakes in grading. Super inefficient. Most people complain about his teachin

This class is actually not that bad if you are interested in finance. BUT, homework and practice questions are much easier than exams which makes it hard to get fully prepared. Problem sets are terribly graded (i.e. he cares more about stuff like rounding errors instead of students' actual understanding of the material)

Absolutely the WORST professor I've ever had. Doesn't answer emails. Can't seem to grade any problem sets correctly. Forces you to have camera on. Calls on random people. Slides are written in paragraphs, not organized at all. Does not record lectures. Class average on midterm was a D (did not curve, stated to curve class instead, what a lazy move)

Taking his class does make you see the real world and re-think the seemingly exciting and buzzing stock market. Solid coverage on some finance technicals including bonds and IRR. BUT! He just doesn't think grades matter and fails to convince clearly on what you will be graded on/or give any pre-warning in any ways. mis-grading is usual. Too bad
