授業調査に対するコメント Comment on Course Evaluation

The course is very intensive, students who had basic background in finance and invested the required efforts, succeeded with distinction. However, those who lagged behind found the course too hard and too intensive. I have been teaching this class in NUCB for 5 years and the average grade is always “normal” and is equivalent to ~80-85. Unfortunately, there are typically 1-2 fails.
