Professor Gardner is indeed a very good teacher. She knows what she's talking about. Her tests, however, are not that easy because tests are time-pressured. Still, it's better to take Gardner than to take Ravetch for 1B for sure.

I had Gardner for both 1A and 1B. Although she is not as easy as Woo, she is very fair in her grading; the material on her exams is exactly the notes that are take during lecture and our class received pretty generous exam curves. I preferred her 1B to her 1A because there weren't all the time-consuming projects and rather only a midterm and a final. This meant that for much of the quarter, you did not have to worry about her class but it also meant your entire grade was 50% midterm, 50% final. Having friends who took 1A with Woo, I am sure Gardner does a better job at actually teaching the material, although she may be a little more difficult. Its a trade-off.

I took this class with Professor Gardner online due to COVID, and she pre-records all her lecture videos and posts them on ccle for us to watch on our own time. In terms of the actual lecturing, I really quite enjoyed it - she's a very clear lecturer, and explains all the concepts very well. It was also a plus this quarter too because we didn't have to buy her course reader (which for Mgmt 1A was about $80) and she simply provided all the pdfs for us, but her course reader in my opinion is REALLY helpful, informative, and clear.

In terms of her exams, the midterm was a bit harder and the class average was a bit low, and I think she got a lot of emails from students worrying about their grade, so the final was visibly easier. However for both exams I feel like they're all relatively fair (nothing was too unreasonable), and I think the class average in the end was pretty decent too.

In general, definitely would take her class again!

Quarter: Summer 2017
Grade: B
Sept. 23, 2017

Professor Gardner does not care about teaching or her students. She showed up late to every single class and by talking to MANY other students in my class I concluded that she does not respond to emails--ever--so if you have a question you better figure it out on your own. She does provide some interesting information about Warren Buffet and Apple, but wastes significant class time to do it. You also have to buy a course reader for $60 which is virtually useless, but necessary to follow what's going on in class. The majority of her tests are multiple choice with an overwhelming number of questions. I honestly stopped trying in her class because I hated her so much and still pulled off a B by only studying for the final the night before. I would say its easy to past her class, but I would not recommend her. Take Ravetch instead.

I took Gardner for 1A as well and think she is the best professor I have taken so far at UCLA. She really wants to help her students and always invites us to come to her office hours for content help and career planning help. Her class consists of two grades: 50% midterm and 50% final. This seems daunting, however she curved the midterm so an 80 was an A-/A. You definitely have to work harder to understand these concepts than you did in 1A and make sure you have a good foundation from 1A because a lot of 1B builds off of it. She also gave us 3% extra credit for filling out the course evaluation. The first midterm was all free response which was nice because I got a lot of partial credit and then the final was all multiple choice (no partial credit) which was definitely harder. You definitely have to study hard to do well but her exams are VERY VERY similar to the course reader that you go over in class. I also recommend using the textbook problems she assigns as practice for the exams.

This class is quite high pressure as the exam distributions are 50% midterm and 50% final, but that does mean that there is no busy work. The tests are fairly hard however even if you study.

I think overall this class was great. Professor Gardner has fantastic notes and clear lectures. While I know the tests can be difficult, it is an accounting class and that is to be expected. She makes the tests fair and all of the material is pulled directly from her lecture notes. If you like having homework to act as buffer for your grade, this class does not have that. Your grade is based off of your midterm and final grade which I personally loved because it meant it was easy to keep up with the workload. She also is happy to connect you with future networking/job opportunities and talks about some of the job options available in the accounting field which is super helpful!

If you dedicate yourself to understanding the course material on a weekly basis, you are sure to do well on the exams. There is no graded homework, there is only a midterm and final that encompass the entirety of the grade. Therefore, it is crucial to attend all lectures and at least attempt some of the homework problems in order to ensure you are prepared for the exams. The exams are not easy, but if you understand everything in the lecture notes (not so much the textbook) you are guaranteed to do well.
