Reviews of professor Michelle Diaz

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Course load is the equivalent of at least 6 credit hours. There are tons of assignments and quizzes, which for the most part are tedious. Have to study at least a week in advance for exams. This class is unnecessarily hard and time consuming. Avoid taking this class with her, especially during your PPA recruiting semester.

Dr. Diaz does not teach an easy course. Therefore the course will be hard. Her exams are challenging but are fair and only cover content that was lectured on.  There are several projects in this course and many writing assignments. Dr. Diaz is very accessible outside of class and is always willing to answer questions.

gets frustrated when we make mistakes, and expects you to be an expert on things she hasn't taught us. After the A/R audit that didn't go well, she literally yelled at us in class for getting things wrong even though the example she showed us was much simpler than what she had us actually do ourselves. Does not prepare you well for tests/projects.

Content is not terribly difficult but half of the points on exams were for writing which is a nonsensical format for the given material and pointlessly makes exams significantly harder. Assignments are long, tedious, and frequent throughout the semester. Also one of the most mind-numbing lecturers at Mays. Would recommend you avoid this professor.

Professor Diaz was a great professor for the summer course. She will answer any question and is very helpful. Very encouraging. The course load can be overbearing sometimes, but definitely doable. I would recommend taking her for Audit!

Professor Diaz means well and seems pretty nice but the tests are ridiculously brutal with half the points coming from writing. Also she gives so many assignments which makes the overall courseload overbearing. The material itself is not hard but the way she structures the class is what kills most students. Worst class experience at TAMU so far.

Dr. Diaz is a wonderful professor who is very kind. ACCT 200 is a 1-hour seminar class that exposes you to opportunities in Accounting. Easy A and very informative if you don't know what you want to major in at Mays.

ACCT200 is a seminar class with mostly guest speakers. I am thankful to have taken the class. Dr. Diaz did a great job organizing/leading it. She was approachable before/after lectures. Getting a good grade was easy is you did the work. I would recommend this class to any freshmen interested in accounting/PPA. Nathan the TA was great too.

She's not a bad lecturer and the material is not that hard to understand. However, her tests are ridiculous. They seem easy, but she's a very tough grader. You get one part of the question wrong, she takes off a BUNCH of points. There are lots of assignments, but just follow the directions and you'll be fine. I'd try and avoid taking her.
