Reviews of professor Louis Salemy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I'm so sorry but I dont know where all these good reviews are coming from. For lower level finance, he will just read off of the slides and just ramble and not explain anything. You're gonna have to study alone if you have him for core. Dude wings all his lectures everyday. And he groans about coming to class.

Class is interesting and should be one of the must-takes if you plan to go into finance. There is a paper due weekly and it is graded kind of tough, but he gives good feedback to put towards the final report. He has a lot of experience in the field and teaches the class the way he views finance.

the Fidelity GOAT at BU. if you want to manage billions of dollars and do well, take his class. He is a living legend

He is very knowledgeable on topics he covers, and covers the cases very extensively. There are no exams, but you have to do 6 case write-ups instead. They are quite long (8ish pages each week if you want a good grade) and you have to participate 4 times each class to do well. Be prepared to write a lot and constantly try to participate.

Go to office hours! Professor Salemy is such a smart guy who has had a lot of experience. Even if you don't take his class, go speak with him as his advice and caring for students is unparalleled.

He is literally the best professor at BU. His classes are very interactive and well-structured. He breaks down important news for his students for the first 15 minutes of all classes. The case studies are very fun and help you understand concepts much better than taking tests. Overall, great class and an awesome professor.

Best finance prof at QST! His view on finance is different from others and he will change your view on investing. There're some essays due weekly in the beginning, but FE458 will teach you how to model a company combined with an investment report. His lectures are very insightful and his experience as a Fidelity fund manager speaks for itself.

FE 460: a paper every two weeks. Nearly every single class is case-based, and participation matters. Be confident and inject yourself into the class, or fail.

Professor Salemy is the best fe professor at BU. After taking this class, I have decided to pursue Finance. I learned how to analyze companies well. His lectures are extremely helpful. He covers important finance news in every class. The case studies go well with the lectures. They helped me understand the concepts very well. Highly recommend him!
