Prof. Constas organizes his lectures really well and explains class material very well, too. However, his exams are much harder than the examples he is going trough in class. He allows 'cheat-sheets', and makes his exams twice as hard as they would've been without those cheat sheets. Final grade is a cumulative of your midterm score and your final score. Midterm is hard yet much easier than the final. Judge for yourself - 25% is a C+ in his class...

This class was absolutely dreadful. He's extremely lazy and does not care about his students. All we do is go over case problems in class, but how can we do them if he doesn't teach us the basics of it first? Then, on the test, that's another story! It looks completely foreign to what we've been "learning" in class. Klein is really condescending and apathetic toward his student. I'm a good student and I get good grades, but he structures his class such that it is way beyond unreasonable.

Fall 2021 - Usually Bruinwalk reviews are filled with biased experiences and opinions but I will try to be as fair and coherent as possible. Mrs. Kumar is simply an incompetent professor. I'm not sure whether it's because of the online format but she is incredibly lazy with her lecture content and provides minimal help. Her class is so unorganized that she would often repost the same lectures on multiple weeks and provide little content (about 30min of lectures for a whole week). She simply rereads the slides in her lectures (I can do that myself) and her examples are irrelevant to her quiz/test questions There were multiple instances this quarter where she did not post the quizzes at the assigned time, making us wake up early for literally no reason. She barely held live lectures and when she did schedule live lectures they were often canceled. This class did not even feel real this quarter as I self-taught the majority of the material and my own professor provided zero assistance for TEN WEEKS. She would also fail to post homework questions and lectures for certain weeks which made the ENTIRE class fall behind. She takes an extensive amount of time to grade the quizzes when she literally doesn't have anything else to grade. There was a situation this quarter where she literally ghosted the whole class for four straight days. I'm sure taking Kumar during in-person instruction will be different from my experience, but I fully believe that her laziness and lack of interest in students will also transition to in-person classes. Avoid Kumar like the plague if you can and never look back Taking this class genuinely made me miss my community college professors because the difference in passion is so blatant

Winter 2021 - COVID REVIEW Hands down one of the worst professors I have had here at UCLA. He was completely unresponsive to emails and questions practically the whole quarter, and your grade is based on 5 tests that he makes. Questions would be unclear on what they wanted you to do to the point where no one was certain what he was asking for, and his lack of response overall made this a terrible class. Really hoping the Accounting department steps in to address this, but I really don't recommend taking any classes with him at least during COVID until these issues are addressed (because he seems very experienced and knowledgeable).

Spring 2020 - This professor is not helpful at all. Emailed questions and never respond. Leave the class unnoticed for a week without any updates. Yeah no exam this quarter, but each assignment worths 20% of your grade. If you miss one or didn't do well, bye. He will not help you at all, ready for self-study. If you want a responsible and helpful professor, he is clearly not a choice.
