Dishonest professor. He specifically told me I could have an extension on the midterm which I ended up receiving a B. Later on I come to find out that he marked the midterm as a 0... Why would he say I could have an extension and then change his mind last minute? Now I have to fight to have my grade changed. Beware of this man. Karma is a thing!FIN3340 2020-10-20 18:32:02 +0000 UTC
Very easy. Take this class with other difficult classes. Textbook required but don't need to read. Can do homework by skimming what is necessary. Responsive to emails.FIN3330 2017-12-28 16:07:01 +0000 UTC
Dr. Halstead is much better than most professors I have met. The class was full online so I had no direct interaction with him but the posted lectures were quite comprehensive. The lectures dont have numericals but the exams will definitely have them so just be on a look out for that. Other than that.. a great experience!FIN3340 2020-08-18 17:05:08 +0000 UTC
