Comment:
This course is for pre-MBA students. It's a general introduction of finance, operation and stats. Allan is an excellent professor, and he explains everything clearly. He lets me have a good preparation for my first MBA semester. Unfortunately, he does not teach any courses in MBA, otherwise, I will choose his course again.

Terrible Professor, takes absolutely no interest in students and would rather see people fail than help them

Material is kinda dry though so he can't be blamed. It's kinda of a shame he's a really nice and helpful prof, but in my section on average maybe 10ish people went to his class so it must have been difficult for him to stay enthusiastic.

I really loved having him as a prof! He went through his slides a bit fast but did not hesitate to answer any of your questions, whether it was in person or on webct. Super funny guy! Had a great time - even though it was all about stats.

Comment:
He uses hundreds of power point per lecture..very boring and throw same jokes every year. He thinks he's good at teaching but he's only good at telling 'true stories'.Midterm = always same, it's from problem set, and Final? all the sudden, gets so difficult. he uses materials from text. Overall, He Can't Teach!! how can York and WLU hire him?

I found Al to be very real and helpful. He brought a lot of real world experience to the teachings and I was happy with the class. One thing that impressed me was how much he went over and above to help us. Tutorials, sessions, coming to school on days off, preparing powerpoints for TVM, all very appreciated and largely went unnoticed.

Strictly case based course, in which he didn't seem to do a thing. Hired some York grad student to mark our cases, didn't add much in the way of class discussion (there's no notes, each class consists of assigned students presenting the issues in each case).
