Additional Comments |
If you had ACCT 430 with Dr. Wade, be prepared for a shock. This class is much more difficult. Dr. Hays is a very intelligent man and seems to enjoy tax accounting, but he tends to get off topic rather easily and quickly jumps on his political soapbox. Rather than having exams, you have a quiz over most chapters (only one chapter at a time). I liked this about the class. These are worth 40 points and have approximately five T/F questions, several MC questions, and sometimes a couple of problems to work out. I suggest going to the textbook's website and doing the T/F questions on the web to prepare for the T/F questions. Be sure to study all of the problems you go over in class for the MC and problem portions of these quizzes. We had eight quizzes. He also assigns two research assignments using the RIA website (password info provided in class). These were worth 20 points each. The final is worth 150 points and is very difficult because of the wide variety of topics covered in the class. Studying the old quizzes is not enough to do well on the final. You should also study all of your old homework problems. The class is pretty straight-forward with few surprises.
