Reviews of professor Xiang Gao

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This class is far to easy for a graduate level course.3 chances at each homework question, along with a video walk-through. The tests are direct from practice questions and the formulas and book are available to you during exams. You will have to teach yourself using the book and online resources however as she doesn't posts lectures or notes.

I do not recommend taking this course over the summer if you have a lot of other responsibilities. I work full time and found it hard to keep up with the reading and homework. The exams are timed and include a lot of calculation problems (generally half the exam). This aspect was tough for me. The instructor was wonderful though.

Dr. Gao has super helpful video lectures that is comprehensive in covering all the material that is introduced in her class. If you do the homework and listen to the lectures, you will do well in this class.

I got a C in my undergraduate class and an A in this class. It's EASY. Watch her videos as you do the weekly homework, then do the practice sets, and you're ready for the test. 1 financial analysis project, but again just watch her videos. Lowest homework, practice sets, and test score dropped. I finished the class early.
