Reviews of professor Tom Dow

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
ACC311 is one of the hardest classes at Poole. Be ready for the exams, he pulls questions from everywhere. Know the excel examples by heart and you will do well on the written portions. The course was extremely test heavy, and without a curve half of us would have failed.

I really like Professor Dow. His tests are exactly what are on the graded HW, Smartbook, and practice problems. If you can do the homework, you'll pass the tests. His lectures have questions throughout them and if you get them right, they help boost your grade. His tests and the class overall are less difficult than other nc state professors

He's an excellent professor. His lectures are great, and his tests are reasonable. I'm minoring in business and barely paid attention, but still picked up all the info I needed to get an A. Keep up with the homework/problem session quizzes and you'll be just fine.

Professor Dow is amazing!! Very responsive to emails, easily accessible outside class, provides real world examples in class, and he grades fairly (has a clear grading criteria). I would recommend this class for students who want to gain a real world experience and understanding of AIS. Seriously, one of the best accounting instructors at NC State.
