Reviews of professor Margie Means

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Second semester taking her, first with ACCT2101. All by design, as her teaching style really spoke to me. She gives out more than enough extra materials to ensure you grasp the material. The assignments were straightforward and pretty easy. Exams weren't bad at all, so long as you did basic preparation and used your resources ;)

Professor Means is very nice, caring and offers lots of opportunities to make up missed homework assignments.  HW is 20% and assignments are 20% but midterm & final are 30% each and both are proctored, in person (even for online classes). I have heard horror stories of other ACCT professors at UNG, and Means seems to be the better option.

The class is not hard. Do the work, understand the material, and you will pass the class. The Cengage assignments take a long time. The professor expects you to read the chapters before class. GO TO CLASS! She takes attendance every day. Most of the tests were on D2L and were pretty easy since you can look at your notes.

I would say it's an easy A. She gives lots of extra credit and the tests aren't worth a lot. She's really intelligent and passionate about accounting but she sometimes expects all of her students to feel the same way. Class can get awkward when no one participates. If you like accounting you'll learn a lot from her.

Pof Means is okay. She is really hard to reach outside of class because she works a 9-5 job. You pretty much teach yourself, no lecture videos just textbook and homework. 4 test and final (1 proctored, rest lockdown no camera). 1 weekly quiz and homework assignment. You also have a 10k analysis (3 parts) and few assignment here and there. Easyish

Professor Means is a great professor to take for accounting if you're not an accounting major. Lectures can be long and boring but class exercises help with understanding the material. You will learn how to do everything from the online cengage assignments. Most of the tests were online. Best part is that she tells pretty funny stories sometimes.

Professor Means does not care if you are failing or falling behind. She also assigns these Data Analytic excel spreadsheets that have nothing to do with the current chapters and they make no sense to anything we are working on. Final and midterm are the only grades worth 50% of total grade and are only to be taken on campus. Do not take this class.

Overall, this professor is a great teacher. All material is covered and easy to follow during lectures. However, the grading for this course is unacceptable. This courses gradebook consists of assignments, quizzes and tests. The assignments and quizzes are worth only 20 percent and the midterm/final are 60 percent. I cannot recommend this course.
