Awful!!! Boring Class. Doesn't teach. Only use calculator. Do not explain. I went to all A+ reviews and still didn't do good. He grades on a group average curve if you are below even if you are "passing" you fail to get a c.

Not everyone with an indian accent is smart. Very thick accent you can't understand at all. I'm not sure what happened with the rater below but I just remember having a hard time understanding him.

Looks like some people needed to read their books. I read and got an A. Yes, very calculator oriented, but its better than paying $100 bucks and NOT learning how to use it. He's a good professor trying to teach a difficult subject. Enjoy Oregon!

Comment:
he sucks. good thing he's retiring. he does not respond to emails and i doubt he double checks your scantron for errors. he's all about punching numbers on a calculator like a trained monkey! if u take him, make SURE you got to A+ review.

Comment:
His lectures are pointless because his exams come out of nowhere, A+ helps so much but you really have to know the packets to do well. This class isn't taught well by anyone so take Sachdeva because no one goes to class and A+ isn't that bad.

Comment:
Sachdeva teaches simplistic individual concepts. His teaching method does not combine concepts as his exams require! Sachdeva's inability/refusal to teach effectively is undermining student goals!!U have to teach uself to combine concepts,or fail.......

Sachdeva is useless if you really want to learn finance. The only thing you learn in his class is how to punch keys on a calculator. Look for an excellent private tutor if learning finance is your goal.

Stay AWAY!!! I am now calculator dependent but have no clue what I have learned in his class. A+ review helps but is not entirely the solution. A better professor is the right solution. LAZY he is damn him.

Nice guy! He talks about real concepts in finance that are useful. He wants students to do well on the exams and then makes the final more challenging to seperate grades a little. You must go to A+ Review to do well!

Seemingly hard during class lecture, but everything comes together easily when you study for tests. Hardly any out of class work. Kanwal is a very sweet man with a cool accent. Everything in this class revolves around a financial calculator.

If you have to take finance, take it with Dr. Sachdeva. He's easily the nicest finance professor out there, and considering the fact that the material is HARD no matter who you take it from, having a nice professor makes a lot of difference. Thumbs up!
