Very hard. Likes to grade based on critical thinking on material never mentioned in class. On test she likes to put 2 right answers one that is right and the other that is "the best" answer. Very confusing. Avoid avoid avoid

Dont take her!!!!!! The tests are hard and complicated. After the first test she gave 3/4 of the class dropped her class. By the end of the semester ther were only 10 of us in a class that used to have 25.

Comment:

I was a 4.0 student before I took this class, but not anymore after taking it. It is extremely difficult material and she doesn't explain it in a way that is easy comprehend. The good thing is that she shifts the grading scale down by 3% if you don't miss more than 2 classes. Take very good notes and definitely read the chapters.

Does not write legibly and rushes through material. Goes way too fast to comprehend. All of her class time spent is lecturing with no hands-on material to help you learn. Do not recommend!

Comment:

very hard prof. her tests are very difficult. you need to understand the book, the handouts and the her lecture extremely well. the only grades are tests which makes it stressful. the only good thing is that if you dont miss class more than 3 times the grading scale shifts down 3 points.

Comment:

if you plan on passing her class you will have to know every detail of the book and her lectures inside and out. that is the ONLY way you can pass. her "study sheets" are no help at all. she will interupt you when you are doing presentations. she will look at you and treat you like you're stupid if you ask a question. DONT TAKE HER

Comment:

A hard class to begin with, but she makes it harder. She certainly knows the subject, but is condescending when you ask questions and makes alot of mistakes. Exam questions are vague. Her lectures are sometimes incoherent and disorganized. Example: She says "There are 5 types of"...but only 4 are listed on the whiteboard.

Comment:

I understand why she gets bad reviews but she is a good professor. If you dont want to learn economics and just want an easy grade, go elsewhere. If you want someone who is going to challenge you and help you understand concepts, take her class. She is helpful and answers all questions. Would take again!

Every comment you see on here is spot on. Every question is a bad question to her. She is confusing and makes constant mistakes. Why she is even allowed to teach is a mystery.

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE HER FOR THIS CLASS!!! If you can take it with another professor do so. Your GPA will drop with her class... She's very unclear as to what her tests are over and her study guides are horrible. The notes in class aren't good at all! I've had foreign professors with better notes and the class average for the 1st test was a D or F.

Comment:

What you need is the Colander Study Guide Book. I'm NOT an A student or that person that aces every exam they take. I literally spent about an hour every night b4 the exam with this study guide book, went to every class and out of the 4 exams I got 3 B's and one A. I swear the trick is having that study guide.

Comment:

She's a really hard professor. She knows what she's talking about and is available, but it's a really hard class. Try to take with a friend, it makes studying a little easier because you can bounce ideas with each other. This class requires you to think a lot, it's more case by case than fact based.

Comment:

Professor Endres is actually one of the best teachers at WSU. She clearly knows the information in the book because she has used it all her life. Although the class is extremely difficult and I being an A student have spent more time on this class than any others. I have also learned and actually retained the info. Recommended to serious students.

Comment:

I should have listened. I had to drop to 12 credit hours just so I would have the time to study for this class so I could try to salvage my GPA. I was an Economics major before this class, I have since changed it.

Comment:

Professor is simply poor. She has a very clear understanding of the material, but is not a good teacher. She becomes visibly frustrated by a student asking multiple questions, often making mistakes when she has to work on the fly. She has a schedule that she has difficulty deviating from. Also is very unclear what she will test on. Pass!

Comment:

This professor is very unclear on what she will test on, she is not helpful on questions in class, and creates an unnecessarily difficult and stressful class. Even as someone who received an A in this class, I don't recommend this class to anyone. Period. Economics should not be this difficult and this professor is unfair.

Comment:

Avoid this class and professor at all costs. All of these bad reviews are not exaggerated, she is not clear on what she will be testing on. Even her study guides and books will not have examples of what is on the test and when the test is received it will be material not discussed. Avoid

Comment:

Do not take this class unless you absolutely have to. If you want to do well in this class, be ready to devote yourself completely. The optional study guide (if she is still using the book I used) is a major help.

Comment:

Most people will not be prepared to take Endres and get a good grade. Course requires extensive experience and analysis. It is a messy subject and she's not going to give you a break.If you want an A and are not a straight A student, you wont get an A. 40 solid hours of studying required per week to get B. FOCUS ON CONCEPTS NOT ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
