I would take Fin300 with Greg again in a heartbeat. His lectures are straightforward and provide plenty of examples. He cares about his students and is willing to help however needed. Tests are difficult but fair and he provides an opportunity for EC. 10/10 professor.Rate My Professors ↗

Greg Edwards is one of my favorite professors I have had during my time at UW-Madison. His tests were extremely straightforward, with no trick-type questions that you might see in other difficult business school courses. Greg cares about his students and includes real, applicable examples in his lectures.Rate My Professors ↗

Greg is a nice guy. There are 3 exams (including final) in total and each take up for 1/3 of your final grade. NO HOMEWORK!! Exams are fair, and self-quizzes are really helpful. You can also do extra credit, which can add 3 points to your final grade. Overall, Greg is a great FIN 300 professor and you can learn a lot from him.Rate My Professors ↗

Greg's a fantastic lecturer. Very knowledgable about the finance industry, etc. He can sometimes be a little redundant or occasionally have messy slides, but he genuinely cares about his students and wants everyone to have a great understanding of finance.Rate My Professors ↗
