Reviews of professor Kenneth Abbott

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Take him if he's available. Stand-up guy, you will get an A but he will make you earn it first. Not hard work. 2 papers and only on topics that you would use in an interview for your next job. Slides and lectures have a lot of info and its easy to zone out, but its easy to learn the material if you read the slides on your own time. Does reviews.

He's VERY understanding and considerate for his students too.(REACH OUT TO HIM IF YOU'RE IN FINANCE ESPECIALLY.) On the first day, he tells us "My job is to get you guys jobs." He's happy to help and he has so many advice for interviews questions, tips, advice about the place, connections, etc. He's goes by Uncle Ken from Wall Street for a reason.

G.O.A.T professor. Helps you with your career too. Course Materials easy. Only 2-3 papers through the entire semester (3-5 pgs, very easy/manageable, gives opportunity to rewrite to get a better grade).1 midterm&final (exams are pretty fair). Reviews cover EVERYTHING on the exams. Go to the reviews and you'll do great. GET THIS PROFESSOR.

I screwed up beginning of the semester which affected my grade, but honestly this professor is great except his lectures. They are too long which i didnt like but his review session is very helpful in order to succeed in his class. Essay are not bad as well but he is a strict grader so you better put in the work.

I took the Risk Managment lecture with Ken in Spring 2024. Ken was very approchable and whenever I asked him a question, he took the time to explain various concepts to me(also outside of class). What I liked most about Ken was the deep expertise of him across the Industry as well as his Presentation style. I would definitely take this class again.
