The Material in BMGT220 is not hard but professor Qian makes it very understandable. Class lecture are not nessecary as the topics can't be learn't on your own. No final - 3 exams each weighted separately. Always wanting students to succeed and helps them find opportunities in research. Would take ! |

She is a very caring professor and wants the best for her students. Like others mentioned, her practice exams were very similar to her actual ones (except for the last exam). Sometimes she goes a bit fast in lecture, and I needed time to catch up on the notes/digest the information, but I understand there is a lot of material to cover. One thing I didn't like was that even though she moved our quizzes to online, she wouldn't release the grades until days or weeks after. The same goes for our exams...it sometimes took up to two weeks until we got grades back, which was annoying. Overall, this was a manageable course, and you will do well if you put in some time to understand the material. Great professor! Class format: 3 exams (no final), 3 "case quizzes" as homework, one individual assignment, 3 in-class quizzes (some of ours got moved to take-home quizzes), discussion attendance (you have to go to at least 10 of the 13) |

She's a super encouraged and kind professor who does want to see her students genuinely perform and do well. Although she doesn't post exam prep well before the exam date, I found that the first two exams were fairly similar to the practice exams. For whatever reason, the third one was different from the practices, but generally it felt as though she didn't want to see anyone fail her class, and the easy tests reflected that. Also, at times, there was a disconnect between my TA and the professor, which led to some confusion during discussion section. Would still recommend her though since exams are not complicated whatsoever. |

Pros: No final, content resources, happy cheerful professor, no regular HW, 3 excused discussion absences, no weekly discussion quizzes, final grade curve only helps you, pre-made lecture notes so you don’t have to take notes during class (listen to her explanations instead), friendly when you go up to her with questions/concerns, practice exams similar to real exams, “i don't mind giving you guys higher grades”, my TA John is the goat Cons: She personally doesn’t respond to emails, lectures are useless b/c she reads off slides, doesn’t post practice exams until it is close to exam day (can’t always get a big head start on practice exams), online HW grades are muted for around 2 weeks after its due, slow exam grader (~2 weeks after taking it) |

Professor Jingyi is an exceptional instructor who genuinely cares about her students’ success. She’s always willing to help and makes the course material very clear. Lecture attendance is not mandatory, and she records all lectures and shares both the recordings and slides online. She explains the core concepts well, and as long as you pay attention in class and take notes, you should be fine. Discussion attendance is mandatory, but you are allowed to miss 3 discussions out of 13 total discussions. There are around five out-of-class assignments throughout the semester. If you pay attention in class and take good notes, these assignments are straightforward and manageable. Additionally, there are three mini-quizzes held during class, which last about ten minutes each. These are also fairly simple if you’ve been keeping up with the lectures. There is no final, just three midterms spread evenly across the semester. About two weeks before each exam, she provides a practice quiz that closely mirrors the real test very closely, just with different numbers. If you go through these practice quizzes a few times and skim the slides (since she includes some questions off the slides at the end of exams that aren't on the practice exam), you'll be fine. Overall, I highly recommend taking her class. |

Overall, an amazing professor and the best one to take for BMGT220. The content is simplified, and the practice tests are very similar to the actual midterms. There is also no final in the class, just three midterms spread throughout the entire course. Basically no homework in this class besides a few assignments that are relatively simple, just follow along, and you should be okay. You also don't really need to go to lectures since they are all recorded, but the class is still enjoyable when you do want to attend. |

For a class that is inherently really boring and kind of a lot of content, she does to a great job of making it fair. Theres only a few assignments, including 3 midterms, and grades are really heavily dependent on them but luckily the practice exams are almost exactly the same as the real tests. She is very sweet, but the lectures are honestly a little useless. I have relied to just teaching myself and its done me right, but I know a lot of people think differently. For me she just teaches a little backwards, but since its a big lecture hall attendance is not mandatory. The class is curved, Im not sure by how much but she said that our grades are guaranteed to go up. Overall, Jingyi is great and if you have to take accounting you are very lucky to take it with her. |

She is a good professor. She makes sure that you understand the material and offers a lot of resources to make sure you succeed. There are three small quizzes throughout the semester which are pretty simple. One of which were a take home quiz. There also 3 mini-case assignments which contain 5 questions and are basic intuition. There is a relative grading scale, and a curve is applied based on that. She claims that your grade will only go up because of it. Overall, I recommend. |

I took this professor last year and this has to be my favorite professor in the business school. She was such a nice lady and she made it very EASY to learn accounting. She made me switch to an accounting major. She actually is a GOAT. Her practice exams were exactly like the exams, so it was easy to get a good grade. THANK THE LORDS FOR THIS PROFESSOR. |

Jingyi is a great professor and is very nice to her students. She does a great job explaining core concepts and how topics at the beginning of the semester build onto the later topics. If you're struggling, her and the TAs are very helpful during office hours. There is discussion once a week but you are allowed to skip 3 without harming your grade (there are 13 total I believe) and as long as you sign in for attendance you get full credit. However, it is very easy to lose engagement in the class as attendance is not mandatory (it's a big lecture hall) and you can do your own thing during class and get away with it. It's completely up to you to keep track of what is going on in class, but as long as you pay attention and review class material (slides get posted after every lecture) you should be fine. I personally do not take notes in this class and have not gone to a considerable amount of lectures, but I have found success through extensive review outside of the classroom. All of the tests are multiple choice only, there is no final (only 3 midterms), and you are essentially given the layout of material on each test alongside a practice test to help you study. If you review all slides from class, do every practice test, and keep up with the class, you should be successful. |

Shes not bad. A little hard to understand sometimes and her lectures are confusing to say the least. The lecture is honestly kinda useless. But her practice exams are EXACTLY like the exams, so you know what you're going to be tested on. Super sweet lady and it was her first time having so many students so overall like it wasn't bad. Just lots of self teaching ChatGPT is your friend |

This is the best professor for accounting. She really cares about her students and she explains the concept really well. She knows that the content can be confusing so she uses a lot of examples and give practice. Her exams are so nice. Each question sets up the question after it. I came in knowing nothing about accounting and now I'm switching to the major. There's was no finals for this class and every other time, she cancels an assignment or makes it take home. She literally made a whole quiz take home because she saw that people were "getting sick." YES GOD. She's the best. |

Please ignore the review below this, she is amazing! If you are struggling with the concepts, that is due to lack of studying, paying attention, and effort (or accounting just isn't for you haha). It is definitely not because of her or her way of teaching. The class doesn't have any homeworks and only 3 quizzes the entire year. There are also 3 midterms and no final cumulative exam which makes it a lot easier and less stressful. She is truly a gem! You can see her passion for teaching accounting and is literally always smiling every single day, every single lecture. Discussions on Fridays are mandatory for attendance, but there is no quiz like there was previous years with the old professor. It is just a time for you to come and review the lectures from the week and ask your TA questions. You can also miss up to 3 with no questions asked which is flexible. Overall, I have loved having her and know you will too. |

Dr. Qian super sweet and an amazing professor, I would definitely recommend taking her!! She is very knowledgeable about accounting, and I found her lectures helpful for learning the material. However this course definitely requires work outside of class to learn the content, I was only able to get a good understanding through doing my own studying along with going to class. Dr. Qian is great, but don't expect to get a good grade without putting in the effort for it. DO THE PRACTICE EXAMS, they are very similar to the actual exams and will definitely help you prepare. Overall, Dr. Qian's class has been a good introduction to accounting and I would recommend taking her for BMGT220. |

I dropped this because I just couldnt get through one lecture without wondering wtf I just learned. She is the nicest professor and very knowledgable but I just cannot learn by reading off slides which is basically the entirety of her class. I think anyone is way better off taking Accounting 1 at community college |

Jingyi is PERFECT! Her bubbly personality mixed with her passion for accounting made this course extremely tolerable. She also takes the time to answer questions and politely correct students who make mistakes. Additionally, she is fantastic at picking TAs, as both of her TAs were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. |

Professor Qian cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She wants you to focus on learning the information instead of your grades. She goes above and beyond by providing a packet of her lecture notes and detail slides so that during class students can just listen instead of frantically jotting notes down (because let’s be real, there is so much info 😭) There wasn’t a final, instead 3 midterms with the first two worth 20% and the last midterm making up 25% of your total grade. I felt that the class is manageable, however you do need to spend some time preparing for the exams. Definitely do the practice problems because they are like the real exams and if you're crazy like me, redo the practice problem 8 more times 💀. I am very fortunate to be taking her class as she enhances the overall learning experience and I felt that I learned a lot as someone with absolutely no prior knowledge in accounting. |
