Professor doesnt understand when to draw the line on when to stop the course content. There is an insane amount of course content that was taught in 10 weeks. His exams are insane, 24 questions in 50 mins fo midterm and 34 questions in 70 mins is beyond insane to expect from students especially for a class like this which requires heavy memorization. This class should only be taken for thoese trying the CPA.

If you care grades do not take his class, I have never taken a professor like him that makes feel suspicious about my own skills, I studied hard for the midterms and feel confident I aced it but in the end I received a grade that I am not satisfied, he also points out people who got an A on the exams which I think it is really mental stressful for other students as well. Every year they were people complain with him about their grades and he should find out why. Other than that he also share his political opinions in front of class trying to somehow force his beliefs into students. Materials are good but just not a good professor. As you can also tell from the grade distribution, he will not make any curve in the exams, because he made a bell curve. Worst professor

I liked professor Lu. This class is definitely difficult and requires a lot of studying throughout the quarter. Cramming for his exams are impossible. Best prep is to study all of the notes and in class examples, he will never test you outside of this. Your grade is a direct reflection of the effort you put in.

This class was incredibly helpful, especially as my first accounting course at UCLA as a transfer student. It built a strong foundation in accounting, which is essential for future courses. The professor provided all the key information needed for exams (including CPA exams) in the notes, and if you study those and practice the example questions repeatedly, you'll be well-prepared. Exams will be multiple-choice and some short-answer questions (like journal entries). He was also very clear about which topics would be covered on exams and relevant to the CPA.

Additionally, he shared valuable insights about careers as CPAs by discussing former students' experiences, hosting CPA workshops, and announcing recurring accounting events. He genuinely cares about students' career paths and provides plenty of guidance.

Overall, it was the most straightforward and transparent course I've ever taken!

Prof. Lu is one of the most supportive and approachable professors I’ve had at UCLA. He genuinely cares about his students' success, both academically and in their future careers, and goes above and beyond to be a resource for anyone who needs extra guidance. Whether it’s help with class concepts or advice on career paths, he’s always generous with his time and makes himself available for any questions you have.
The class is definitely challenging, but the exams are clear and based entirely on the material he teaches. If you put in the effort, attend lectures, and engage with the practice problems, you'll be well-prepared to excel in the class. Take his class if you get a chance to!

This is my first review, but I felt that Professor Lu deserved one. He is by far the best professor I have had here at UCLA. He makes an incredible effort to connect with his students to be a resource for both their academic and career goals. He is extremely generous with his time and is willing to accommodate all of his students' requests for extra help with course material or questions about their career. While this course is challenging and requires a good amount of effort, anyone can get an A. His exams are very straightforward and never have any curveball questions - he isn't trying to trick you, just teach you! Overall, I will say that Professor Lu really wants to see his students succeed both inside and outside of the classroom, and as such, he gives his students the platform to succeed in the course and prepare for an amazing career following graduation.

Professor Lu is one of the best professors I’ve had at UCLA. He is extremely clear in his lectures and is very helpful outside of class time - he wants each and every one of his students to do well in his class and he demonstrates just that. Contrary to what people say, the class is not hard at all. Everything that is tested is in his notes - he tells you exactly what’s gonna be tested and it’s just up to you if you put the effort into studying or not. All it takes is a few hours a week, and you will do just fine. I highly recommend anyone takes his class.

Professor Lu is one of the best professors I have had at UCLA. He takes the time to get to know each student and really cares about his students. His class is extremely clear and he even adds some funny jokes into his lecture. His midterm and final is extremely fair. I would recommend studying his notes to do well in his class. He has optional textbook problems but they are not mandatory. I would definitely take the class with professor Lu again and if you can take it with him!!

Professor Lu is one of the best accounting professors I have had at UCLA. He really cares about his students as he takes the time to get to know each student. The class is relatively straight forward and his class has one midterm and final. I would recommend studying his notes to do well in his class. There are textbook homework problems to help with the class but they are not mandatory. I would definitely recommend this class and definitely take the class with him if you can!
