Reviews of professor Elena Mitropolsky

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Elena is the queen of giving free marks. Throughout the semester you can answer a question to get bonus marks, and for the final she is giving a 10% bonus question. She is passionate about finance and is super knowledgable. However, the only negative thing about her is how messy her notes are, it is very difficult to follow along in class!

This was my first class with Elena. She is one of the smartest people I have ever met, her knowledge of corporate finance is unparalleled. She does have an accent but it is not hard to understand, she just enunciates words more clearly. I found her very good at simplifying complex topics and love her passion for what she teaches.

She was an alright teacher... easy marker and if you follow her reviews it will set you up for success for both the midterm and final. However, her teaching I found difficult to follow (talks fast and somewhat unclear). I found I understood the content better when I taught myself. Also, she didn't even know how to use the BA calculator

Elena is a phenomenal professor. If you're not interested in finance, you may find the material dense. Although her slides can be a bit of a mess, she is very good at explaining the material in lectures and takes time in and out of class to make sure students understand the materials. Also, an overall delightful, caring, and funny person.

Elena is super kind and caring, she also gives out dope bonus marks if you answer questions - do it. She does not explain concepts well though and rips through excel assuming everyone knows whats cooking when we do not. Exams are similar to practice exams so that's chill, be prepared to learn on your own tho !!
