Reviews of professor Alyssa Ong

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Professor Ong holds her students to a very high standard. Office hours and homework checks are useful but she WILL make you feel incompetent if you ask questions or if you can't answer her questions. Her class is extremely challenging and I would not recommend for non-accounting students. Do yourself a favor and take another professor.

She is always available through email or outside class, but her exams are just too difficult. Even if you're an A student, be ready to study nonstop for a B.

She is very challenging professor. Her grading is ridiculous and strict for no reason. She does explain the material well but at a very fast pace. I would suggest taking another professor. Very hard tests and even stricter attendance policy.

Dr. Ong's teaching is amazing. She is strict but very caring. She is the kind of professor that you can really walk away from her class with many meaningful things. You will do well if you pay attention to the lectures; the tests are not that hard, she gives partial credits for every question, and there's a lots extra credits opportunities.

Take 224 with another professor. Prof. Ong will make ur life hell on earth. She is not mean but not nice either. She is very strict with deadlines and can be unforgiving with simple mistakes. Her class feels like 6 unit class, the work never stops and she has unrealistic expectations. If ur a suck-up, then you'll be perfect for her class.

This class was a considerable challenge. I had taken another accounting class before, but we went far and beyond anything I had learned prior. She provides ample opportunity to do well with group quizzes, homework, and many opportunities for extra credit. Her tests were quite hard and required you to know the material thoroughly. Very reasonable.

extremely harsh grader, extremely unrealistic expectations. She is okay at teaching, and you learn a lot from the class, but as a 4.0 student she completely ruined my GPA. by far the least empathetic teacher I have ever had. Class on average on exams were F's across the board.

Dr. Ong holds high standards to all her students and you need to put a great amount of effort to do well in her class, but she is also one of the most caring professors I have ever met. She knows the material extremely well and knows how to teach the concepts to the students. Exams are hard, but she tells you what to expect and is a fair grader.

dr. ong is the sweetest strict prof. she is so understanding and helpful. she wants you to be the best student possible. she holds you accountable, but she is always ready to help her students. when she teaches, she gives relevant examples that keep people engaged.
