Easy A if you do all of the homework and review problems. Going to class is mandatory, sometimes boring but can be very helpful. If you read the textbook and do the questions you'll do well.

Prof Bossung is Excellent! She spends a lot of helping students to make sure that we are understand the material and that we are learning. Very approachable outside of class for office hours. Homework is alot per week but the more effort you put into it you will get better grades on exams and guizzes. Would definitely this professor!!!

Avoid if you like to learn in class. All she does is talk about homework in the textbook in class. Only reason why i'm learning is because of the accounting major tutors who scoff at how poor of a professor she is. Worst grade I've ever gotten in a class I didn't even need to take. Big homework assignments each week, 3 big exams 4 quizzes.

I had her for 102 and now have her for 103. Same deal... she puts the answers to the HW online, her quizzes are easy if you read the book, and her tests are even easier if you pay attention in class and read the book and go over the homework. She does call on kids at random... so beware. Overall great accounting professor.

Professor Bossung is slightly scatterbrained in class, and her lectures are boring and confusing. But the book is excellent and she's very helpful during office hours. If you do the reading and assignments (which are often quite long) you will do well.

Class is confusing, but the book is really well written and help you learn everything. Her tests and quizzes are easy if you study a fair amount. Bossung is very approachable and helpful. She gets confused easily. Overall, her class isn't too bad if you can get over the boredom.

Comment:

She's a pretty good professor. She gives 3 exams, 4 quizzes (she drops the lowest), and comprehensive review problems (which take hours to complete). You will have to teach yourself the material out of the book and use the class as a supplement. Definitely a manageable class.

Comment:

Lectures are extremely boring and there is a lot of work but if you do the work you can get a descent grade even if you bomb the tests. The class isn't hard its just extremely boring. That is the toughest part of the class is just learning about the material.

I love prof. Bossung. She really wants her students to do well and trys really hard to work around anything that may come up during the course. Her tests are hard but fair and alot of it is true or false (know definitions!) You have alot of work out of class but I mean we are college students that expected. Take her class!

Extremely disorganized lectures, haven't taken a single word of notes from her lectures all year. I taught myself everything in this course and I expect a B-B+. She treats students like children, "scolding" them if they use the bathroom during her class more then twice in a week. Imagine if Bossung actually was a decent professor....? VERY BORING.

Comment:

She is very outgoing and dedicated to teaching Tax. However she is not well organized with her MyCourses and takes a long time to answer a simple question during office hours. She does not give a lot of partial credit on exams. Work really really hard to get an A. Overall she is a great professor that will make sure you understand tax.

Love Professor Bossung and her rolling briefcase (you can hear her coming down the hall)...Def. not an easy A with the comprehensive problems that take a good 5 hours a piece and the tests are hard but fair (she puts definitions from the book on her test)-see her during office hours, very helpful

Very nice person if you get on her good side. Intelligent, enthusiastic (sometimes too much) and somewhat helpful. She talks over your head at times though. Ask questions-she likes it.

She's really hard to follow in lecture, so just look down if it sounds like she's asking a question. The tests aren't too bad if you study and teach yourself everything. Comprehensive problems will ruin your life, but other than that, the class isn't horrible.

Comment:

Her lectures are tough to follow because she gets too ahead of herself that she jumps to the next topic before she finishes the one she's on. Classes really aren't very useful. If you read the textbook you'll be fine. She's really nice though and definetly cares about what she teaches. The classes are tough to follow at first but just read the text

her lectures are incredibly hard to follow and she usually does not teach that much in class. you will learn a lot more by just reading the text book at night. lectures are very confusing and you usually end up lost after the class.

Comment:

You cannot follow her in lecture. She is all over the place. There are no actual notes, just her leafing through the text and going through an endless supply of overheads, which are impossible to copy. I really learn nothing in lecture at all. However, she's ver nice, and the tests aren't all that bad provided you can teach yourself the material.

class is boring and you can't follow her lecture at all. but if u go to her office and chat with her, she might be the nicest professor at this college. she wants to help and her tests are very easy. you just need to be talented at teaching yourself out of class and this is an easy A.. make sure you do go to class because attendance is required

Comment:

As far as in class lectures go, I haven't learned much. She just goes over the homework and sporadically runs through the textbook, no actual notes which makes the lectures kind of frustrating. However, you can tell she cares a lot. Helped me tons during her office hours. Had to learn most of the stuff myself, but it isn't anything unbearable.
