Reviews of professor Mohamed Drira

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The course is kinda boring, but he is very nice and the most generous grader (for the midterm anyways). average was 80% on the midterm and exactly copy and pasted questions from assignments/class. The assignments are MC online. He gives everyone 80%+ for participation if you didn't even talk once. Read the textbook, take notes and you'll do fine.

Is he as bad as it seems? Not quite. You will need to memorize a lot, but he does care for his students. There are ways to pull up your grade through participation and papers. But there will be 300+ Powerpoint slides where you need to memorize every step of the Audit process. So avoid if you can but you'll survive if you can't.

Spent the entire semester on chapters 1-4, rushed through chapter 5 in the last class. Then tested on 11 of the books 20 chapters in the final exam, stating that he taught them because theyre all interconnected but doesnt inform students the connections while teaching.

When you get the final exam, you'll understand why he deserves one.

Good guy, tries hard, loves the game. Bro gets a lot of hate in these review which ain't right. Just use quizlet and you'll ace the assignments. Then final and midterm are just like the assignments with a lot of the same questions.

Drira is a very dry and boring prof. I don't feel like I actually learned anything in his auditing classes and it takes him a long time to get through a single chapter. He expects participation as part of your grade but it is difficult to participate with how boring this class is.

Probably a good auditor, not cut out for teaching. Spends multiple classes on early chapters and then covers the last 10 chapters in 2 classes, leaving everyone confused and behind. Basically have to teach yourself the class and memorize every step of every auditing process from the book and his horrific 200 page slideshows. Not fun, try to avoid.

The midterm was relatively easy and fair. The final, was insanely difficult and we were not adequately prepared. He doesn't give layouts, or very good preparation. It's all about memorizing his slideshows, and they're more than 150 slides each. He's unkind and uncaring when you ask him for help. He doesn't care whether you are struggling or not.

Let's cut to the chase... Not the best, however, he appears that he cares. The midterm and final are basically memorization and putting it onto a page, literally no calculations going on here. He has one unreported liabilities case that he made and is extremely big on (15% of grade?) - would be better to have a case based program vs what's going on

Awful and had to teach the whole course to myself. Final was completely ridiculous.
