I recommend Li Huang for Acct 701. I found the class to be VERY straight forward, the tests have absolutely no tricks. I found that if I listened to the lecture and reviewed the power-point prior to the test I would get an A every time and I have absolutely NO accounting background.

The "homework" was nothing more than an open-note proctored pre-test (20 to 25 questions with 2 hour time limit) that you could take twice with the highest grade recorded...there's no reason not to make 100% (50 points) every time. If I knew the concepts for the pretest, I knew them for the test. The only downside to the test is that it is 10 questions (30 minute time limit), so if you miss more than one you won't get an A on that exam; however, she drops the lowest test score, so if you struggle on one, no big deal. The "project" was very straight forward and I found it to be very easy to pull off.

There is absolutely no writing in the course outside of the final project. I averaged about 5 hours per week on this course and got a solid A in the class. Had I known this before the semester, I would have doubled up with another class. The only caveat is she can be a little hard to understand at times, but strangely this made me listen closer and not zone out on her lectures i.e. I think I actually absorbed more because of it...outside of that there is little to complain about.

I highly HIGHLY recommend Huang for Acct 701. No tricks whatsoever, minimal amount of studying because she really prepares you for the class. After reading so many negative comments about other teachers, I can't stress enough how good Huang is. Straightfoward, no tricks, an easy final project (although I was confused at first because it seemed TOO easy), and an easy 5% extra credit. I ended her class with a 100% (because I did the extra credit just in case).

I second this evaluation. I found the class to be VERY straight forward, the tests have absolutely no tricks. I found that if I listened to the lecture and reviewed the power-point prior to the test I would get an A. The "homework" was nothing more than an open-note proctorio pre-test (20 to 25 questions with 2 hour time limit) that you could take twice with the highest grade recorded...there's no reason not to make 100% (50 points) every time. If I knew the concepts for the pretest, I knew them for the test. The only downside to the test is that it is 10 questions (30 minute time limit), so if you miss more than one you won't get an A on that exam; however, she drops the lowest test score, so if you struggle on one, no big deal. The "project" was very straight forward and although it seemed like a lot at first, once I dug into it I found it to be very easy to pull off.

There is absolutely no writing in the course outside of the final project. I averaged about 5 hours per week on this course and got a solid A in the class. Had I known this before the semester, I would have doubled up with another class. She can be a little hard to understand at times, but outside of that there is little to complain about.

I do not hesitate recommending Dr. Li Huang for Acct 701.

TLDR: ACCT 701 with Dr. Li Huang is quite doable with another class.

I am in my first class of the program, but I wish I would have known more before. Two tests in and I totally wish I would have taken an additional class with ACCT 701 (Li Huang).

I do not have any accounting background and have made a 100 on the first 2 tests (closed book, 10 questions multiple choice, proctorio). The "homework" consists of a 20 question which are open note proctorio, two attemps...made a 100 on both modules so far.

Everything you need to know for the weekly test (50% of grade) and "homework" assessment (30% of grade) is in the powerpoint. If I understand the concepts on the homework assessment, then I will know the weekly test. It's not the same test, but the questions are around the same concepts and style. This is the format for the entire session from what I can tell. I spend about 5 to 10 hours a week, tops.

The only caveats I see/know is A) Dr. Li Huang is somewhat hard to understand when listening to the lectures, but I get what I need out of it, B) There is a "project" at the end of the semester that we haven't been told what it involves, but what I have gleaned from emails: it is going to be something that can be done in a week's time (20% of grade), C) I am a good test taker, so this class seems simple to me, YMMV if you do not test well. This is memorization and regurgitation at the core.

I will update after the semester, but I wanted to give people something since registration for Summer is coming up soon.
