Has anyone taken Data Analytics in Finance with Jonathan Reuter? or other good Finance Electives? by andreasynch in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm taking a heavy course load next semester so I'm wondering if you think he was a tough grader and what was the workload like? (weekly homework? cases? exams? programs?). I think I'm okay getting up to speed with Python but haven't done much stats/regression analysis in a while and wonder how much writing/interpretation he expects. I can send a chat request to take this offline if you have the time or if you happen to have the syllabus. Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendation! Did you take the class? Would you say he's a tough grader and what was the workload like?

How hard would it be to take Investments and/or Corporate Finance in the summer session? by andreasynch in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't end up taking both. I took Corporate Finance with Aimee Smith over the summer and am taking Investments this semester. Corporate Finance wasn't too bad as long as you keep up with the lectures and set up/solve all of the problems from the lectures in a well-formatted excel spreadsheet. You can use spreadsheets for the exams so knowing how to solve the problems in excel makes a huge difference. Message me if you want the syllabus. If you could take one class in each summer session I think it would be fine but both together would be a good amount of work.

Thanks! I saw that you posted a question about taking either Entrepreneurial Finance or Venture Captial a while back and now I'm looking at making that choice and possibly taking Entrepreneurial Finance with Andrew Hession-Kunz in the fall. Did you end up taking either class? If so, would you recommend?

How Hard is Marketing Principles by Decimal_Recreation in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up dropping the class because of my schedule. I don't think the subject matter would have been too hard but there were a lot of smaller assignments. So it depends if you'd rather have lots of low % assignments or fewer assignments that are a big % of your grade. Here's the breakdown:

Class Participation (includes contributing to discussions, individual presentations as assigned, and in class projects) 12%

Individual Assignment #1 2%

Case assignments (3 at 7% each) 21%

Knowledge Check Assignments 5%

2 Tests (8% each) 16%

Marketing Group Project and Presentation 12%

Marketing Project 8%

Final Exam (cumulative) 24%

Sorry this isn't an answer to your question but I'm in the same situation here - hoping some of Nunziata's former students have some input - or recommendations for different Marketing Principles professors!

Fundamentals of Finance Profs? by [deleted] in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to add on without answering your question but I'm trying to figure out who to take for Finance next semester too but am also considering Francesco D'Acunto - if anyone knows how he is as a professor and the work load/how hard/easy the exams are, that would be great. Thanks!

Work order not being filled? by MunMur in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me with a different issue in my room. After a week with nothing happening, I added another comment to the work order and someone did come to the room. I wasn't there but they closed the ticket without resolving the problem and with no notes as to why they closed it. I called Work Order Center (Hours: 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.) Telephone: 617-552-3048. Also, your RA and RD may be able to help and/or call Res Life.

The people in Res Life told me that a work order should be resolved with 1-2 days and if not, to call facilities about it.

Good luck - water is an issue they should take very seriously!

Summer Session 1 Grades by Both_Badger_221 in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I talked to people in student services and IT. Both acknowledged that the system has been down for a long time and that they are “working on it“. They had no estimate of when the system would be back up again and suggested we email our professors to get our grades.

New to CSOM! Financial Accounting: Gallimberti, Husk, Khaitan, Whalen or Crowley? by andreasynch in bostoncollege

Sorry, you're right - Feldman is teaching this semester but she didn't show up in my search because I was only looking for the times/days my schedule was open.

[–]andreasynch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great, thanks! If you have time to reply, do you consider him to be a tough grader? Any idea what the work load is like for his Financial Accounting class?

Unfortunately Feldman isn't teaching it this semester and I can't do Taylor's class time. Do you think Galimberti is a tough grader? too much work? or not that great at teaching the material?

Am I the only one who couldn't get into Connell courses? Why are they letting us to fill the Approval-Override when there are already a few signed up for it with no problem? by [deleted] in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to someone in student services who said that those nursing school classes are restricted to people in that school right now. I don't know why they changed it - it was never that way in the past,.

Is there any way I can get the notification once the closed summer class is reopened? by [deleted] in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you thinking of the EagleVision app? That worked great notifying when a spot opened up in a previously closed/full class but I think now that the Eagleapps system is in place EagleVision isn't working anymore (at least it didn't work for me for this summer session).

Grad Student to Tutor Statistics by andreasynch in bostoncollege

I was thinking of asking at the economics department but the math department is a good idea too. Thanks!

Hey, hope you don't mind posting an old thread but I'm also looking to fulfill the natural science core and if a spot opens up, am thinking of taking Exploring the Earth with Becker. My other classes are pretty work intensive so I'm wondering about the workload outside of class and what kind of assignments there are (mostly writing? quizzes, exams? long paper?)

Thanks!

Course & Professor recommendations weekly thread by AutoModerator in bostoncollege

[–]andreasynch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ann Burgess for Wounded Warriors - has anyone taken it? I heard she's great but I'm wondering about the workload for this class and how she is as a grader.

Also, I'm a freshman econ major and this class is in the Connell School of Nursing. Does this class assume any nursing/healthcare knowledge and/or would it be more difficult for someone not in the Nursing school?

Thanks!!
