Student Comments
Many students have provided very encouraging comments at the end-of-term evaluations, and here is a collection of comments. Listed below are student comments for just one course.
In Winter A 2025, I taught Financial Modeling, an MBA level elective course at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business. Here are some nice things my students said about this course.
| 1 | The course structure is brilliant. The trivia questions help us play with financial models, thus making us understand how the concepts of finance that we learned in our previous classes, play out in the real world through excel models. Final exam will be based on fundamental concepts of accounting and finance which makes this course a complete package of modeling, accounting and finance. There is copious amount of information provided by Prof. Qin to us through his website. Couldn’t have asked for more thorough course material which I could access even after the course is complete. |
| 2 | I greatly appreciated Qin’s diligence with this class. The passion he had for modeling really brought the best out of this class and I am very appreciative of that work ethic - it makes me excited to use this in my career. |
| 3 | The course is perfect! |
| 4 | Tons of resources! Very much appreciated. Never felt like I was out of the loop. Provided more than enough to gain a solid understanding of the topics. |
| 5 | Perfect experience. |
| 6 | LBO modeling that we learned this course was simply excellent. Through the course, we could learn not only technique of modeling but also the situation behind the M and A. Personally I’m very pleased that I could refresh my knowledge especially relationship between BS, IS, DF |
| 7 | LBO modeling was my eye-opening learning in this class and many of us may think same thing. |
