Reviews of professor Mustafa Caglayan

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Worst class and professor I have EVER taken at FIU. If there is any other professor you can take for this class take them. The class is already hard but the professor doesn't make it any easier be ready to teach everything yourself and he gives no extra credit.

he stated he needed motivation to teach. Tech challenged, confusing method of teaching, extremely boring, get ready to put a lot of extra work studying, exams contain material he did not go over. read word byword from ppt. doesn't like questions asked. FIU SHOULD FIRE HIM. if you want to learn he is not going to help understand material better.

Overall good. Lot of HW and difficult. Use Chegg. Exams are ok, but some questions are hard. Allow you a formula sheet which it is great.

He was definitely the hardest professor I ever had. 75% of our grade composed of 3 tests. They were so difficult that he had to curve it twice. On the mini cases, he also grades hard and makes it impossible to get a perfect score. In his lectures, he makes the subject seem harder than it should be. He also fails students so beware.

Very well organised lectures, clear way of explaining things. Available for follow-ups.

He is very by the book so make sure you study. Lectures are helpful but do not rely on extra credit because he gives none, even if he says he will. The online homework and the practice tests are very helpful for the exams so make sure you do them both! Not a bad professor, just don't expect any handouts because you won't get any.

I really love his style of teaching. Very clear and easy to understand even for a student like me with no background in finance. I would definitely take his lectures again if he can teach us for other subjects also.

This professor use the wrong material and extend teaching hours. Yet the material is not explanatory.

Lots of studying and lots of prepping beforehand. If you don't know how to pace yourself and stay on top of assignments then you won't pass the class.

Took this professor in the Executive MBA Program. Very disappointing. Although I am sure he is a smart guy, he brought nothing to the table. Shallow teaching ability. Could have rented a textbook from a library read it, re-copied it and gotten the same level of engagement. Alarming that they allow this professor to teach in their EMBA program.

The hardest class I have ever taken. The second exam the average for the class of 50 people was 35/100. Exam is around 25-30 problems and u have 2 hours to solve it.
