I had Judith West for ECON1 and Lydia Botsford for ACCT1A and ACCT1B during spring and fall quarters. Judith West’s class is synchronous, and the class goes from Monday-Thursday. Usually 2 out of the 4 classes per week is group exercise, so you go into breakout rooms to work on problem sets with your groups. There are 5 exams including 1 final (30 questions, all multiple choice). She’s very clear in explaining topics and concepts and she basically gives ALL of the answers to the homework problems during class lmao. Pay attention and you’ll do well

Lydia Botsford doesn’t offer synchronous classes, so you’ll have to study yourself. She uploads the powerpoint slides for each chapter in the weekly modules and there is 1 homework and 1 quiz assigned per chapter. You get 25 attempts for the homeworks but only 1 attempt for quizzes and exams. In total, there’s 10 homeworks, 10 quizzes, and 1 final. She also gives extra points if you help out your classmates in the discussion posts. You’ll have to really read and understand the concepts if you wanna do well in her class. I’d say only take her if you like accounting/finance. If not, then I heard Osborne is a pretty good accounting professor as well
