Quality professor. Class is tough, but tests are open book, open note to save you if you get lost. He offers around 30-40 points extra credit throughout the semester, do it! He provides study guides, cares about students. The WileyPlus format is consistent, and gives partial credit on journal entries for blank debits/credits.

Comment:
One of the hardest teachers I have taken. He is good with preparing you for the homeworks, but the exams were insane. Nearly half the class failed the first exam, if that tells you anything. This is a class were you really have to put a lot of effort into to pass.

Comment:
Dr. Kumar is a great professor. Intelligent, easy to understand, doesn't move on until questions are answered. Everyone must participate. The only thing I wish he'd change: uses online Wiley for homework/testing. I wish he'd make his own tests so they are worded less confusingly and more representative of what is learned in class. Great professor.

Very helpful when needed and seemed to really want the class to succeed. Tests and quizzes are online and open book. Very helpful, offers extra credit. DON'T miss assignments! Due dates are rarely specified in class - you have to look in the syllabus and if you miss any there is no partial credit.

Dr. Kumar wants his students to learn! He is very patient and explains things very clearly. He puts videos of his lectures and homework problems online, as well as going over them in class. He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone grasps the material before moving on and makes it clear what is expected. I would definitely take him again!

Tests are not easy. Final had to be taken in testing center. Reviewing the material is a must. Do your work and ask questions on what you don't understand.

Lectures were all in video format and had separate videos for problems. Tests are not easy. But if you do your work and review the material, you should do fine.

Dr. Kumar is great. It's the accounting that's tough. As far as his teaching method, I loved having him. He provides many resources to study and understand the course material in Blackboard. I only wish I had the 10 extra points needed to earn a B.

The wore teacher I ever had. He told us not many students pass my class. He ask the students to answer the problems before he explain any problem. His accent unclear and hard to understand. I don't recommend him....

My recommendation for this class:DO NOT miss any homework Assignments or Quizzes!!! Do ALL of the videos on bb!! Good news is if you send Dr. Kumar the hw before it is due he will tell you if it is correct and will help if it is not. The grading scale is as follows hw=20%,quizzes=20%, test=30%,final=30%.If you have test anxiety-Good Luck!

Comment:
This professor was not able to explain the material that clearly and his grading scheme seemed quite inconsistent. I studied thoroughly for each exam and got good grades, but then used the same methods to study for the final and it was not effective. There was no curve on any exams although the median test scores were usually in the mid 60s.

Comment:
Grading scheme is fairly hard. I would not suggest taking him online because it's difficult following the lectures due to his heavy accent. Others have said it's a little easier to understand him in class. The final is worth the bulk of your grade, therefore it can make you or break you.

Comment:
Good professor, just make sure you keep track of your grades on your own, at least two people in my summer class have received lower course grades than we actually learned due to his ridiculous grading scheme. If this is the case, challenge the grade he gives you, and it should get overturned.

He is a great professor and extremely helpful. He explains material well. His tests are not all easy so study. Quizzes & some of the exams are online and they're timed so know your stuff and don't assume that you will have enough time to look up answers because more than likely you won't. I listened to Powerpoint online before class and it helped.
