Reviews of professor Jorge Lopez

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Doesn't offer many examples in class, resulted in a midterm score of 53% (curved to 58%). There were 15 people writing the final (started with 80). He expects that you already know everything and read the 3 textbooks. Prefers theory over practical questions, then blindsides you with exams of very difficult problems that were never covered in class

Very helpful outside of the class. very smart and funny. I think he expects students to be well-informed about finance. actually many don't and don't want to. So thats why they fails or don't get good grades The course(derivatives) is HARD. It is the hardest course ever And don't blame on the profs if you don't study very hard. will bell curve
