Comment:
Steven Lilien & Stephen Bryan are laid back and easy going. They provide a lot of additional material; they don't review quiz. The course is very intensive and breaks off into two classes. Must buy a textbook and a SAM accesses Key in order to complete excel projects. There are quizzes every class among 3 Exams. They always welcome feedback. Curve

Comment:
He is the best professor among all the faculties in Baruch. The way he teaches was just mind blowing. Professor lilien shows care towards his students. This Spring semester even though the class went to distance learning his materials and exams was pretty clear and understandable. The most caring professor I have got in 4 years. Highly recommended

Useless lectures. He reads off the slides and over complicates things. Midterm and final were questions he never talked about. He is one of the top 5 worst ACC professors in the department.

Comment:
Do these other students expect accounting lectures to be entertaining? Yeah, accounting is pretty dry, but I did learn a lot in this class. Took ACC9112 as a NON accounting major and wow, it was hard. I did manage to get an A but did nothing but study for this class for several weekends. If you do ALL the homework you'll do fine on the exams.

Comment:
prof. Lilien is a very nice person. His lectures can be quite boring, beware though, he'll only test you on the things he covers in class, you dont have to read the whole chapter. So make an effort to pay attention to the things he goes over. Only 3 tests. The first 2 were quite easy, it was mainly written questions. The final is MC, is comprehensi

Comment:
The absolute most boring lecturer I ever have taken. If you want to learn the full Advanced Accounting curriculum don't take him. We did not go over non-profits and partnerships. Only upside is that his tests are relatively easy as long as you read the book and do the homework. Self-Study class for sure.

The prof is nice and caring while the class can be really confusing sometime. If you are able to learn by yourself, this may be a good choice as this prof has relatively easy exams.

Comment:
This professor is just a mess. You have to email him AT LEAST 3 times for him to get a reply. Tells you to buy his accounting book that covers EVERYTHING about accounting in just a single textbook and a practice book and it cost over $100. The book is crappy and so are his lecture. This guy is in Baruch to make money before he retires .

Comment:
The worst professor I met in Baruch. I came to MS accounting program without accounting background and his class made me more confuse. Most time he just read Power Point Slides. Two exams has some questions as same as previous semesters' exams. unfortunately you can not avoid him because he is the only one teach ACC9112 so far.

Overall Lilien is a decent professor. Read the green book a few times and understand the concepts. As for the midterms, know how to answer all the questions in the blue book. He will ask some of them, but adds in a little twist. The final wasn't as hard as everyone claims. Since the final was comprehensive, some of the questions came from midterms.

9112 is not for the faint of heart. Get ready to teach yourself. I just finished taking this course, so I have not yet received the grade. I already know I did not pass. This is not only because you have to TEACH yourself the material, you then have to remember several chapters (5-6) worth of countless theories and applications for the exams.

Comment:
This class usually has over 80 people in there so GET THERE ON TIME. He doesn't speak too loudly except for his random yells "HOWEVER!" so if you sit too far, you might as well just go home and read for yourself. Class isn't impossible but you definitely have to do the work. You'd be surprised how many HW questions are on the test.
