Comment:

Malki gives lots of self-led learning -- homework assignments to learn a chapter on your own, or a topic not covered in class, that you absolutely have to do because they will be on the tests. He's not bad, but very dry.

Very sweet man who actually cares about his students and wants to see everyone succeed. He offers a lot of extra credit and favors everyone who participates and gets to know him.

It's very difficult to get good grade in his class. He gives a lot to read and participation matters. He puts in a lot of effort too.

Comment:

Professor Malki expects a lot from students even though this is an introductory course. If you are in the honors course, be ready to work harder than other classes. He does not have clear grading criteria and his exams are very difficult. He feels the material is very easy so he doesn't take enough time to explain anything in depth.

dude is a terrible professor. all he does is talk all class throwing info at you. There were no tests except the midterm and final. He makes the class unbearable.

Comment:

He's a nice guy but does not know how to teach. He's a tough grader for everything. Good luck on the paper because he cannot explain the grading criteria for his life and you'll get a low grade even if he says its a good paper. Tests are all short answer / definitions. STUDY STUDY STUDY. His only saving grace is extra credit that's worth a lot.

Comment:

Malki is such an amazing professor. People only complain about the class because they don't want to put work in. There IS a lot of info, but he teaches it well, and the book is there for further understanding. He gives so many extra credit opportunities and they will help you if you're struggling. Just take notes when he lectures and pay attention.

Comment:

I enjoyed the class, but be-prepared only copy down what the slide is about and then type or write what ever comes out of his mouth DONT worry too much about the slides because it will be in your text book. I wish I knew to do that. Also participate as much as you can. He likes to jump around when he talks going from one topic to the next.

Comment:

Great professor but overwhelms you with a highe amount of material that you will be responsible for on the midterm and final. Does not put anything into the gradebook. Picks favorites. It's an intro class but he makes it very hard. Gets so boring. I'd reccomend taking an easier professor.

Comment:

This guy was my beacon of hope freshman year. If he likes you you're golden. My advice is to smile and nod your head during his lectures. Also play biz cafe early in the semester before you start the project he'll love you. He's harsh on the group presentation but honestly it's for your best interest. Learned a lot from him. Even wrote me a rec.

Comment:

He easily related real life topics to what we were covering in class. Bizcafe was a fun group project and was the bulk of the work for the class. I felt that I studied harder for his midtermfinal than all my exams combined and I still got a bad grade. PARTICIPATE and do EC and your grade will be cushioned from his tough grading.

Comment:

Smart and sophisticated, yes you can learn a lot from him, but he's not easy. He expects you to know everything, marketing, accounting, finance etc. Avoid if you are not truly interested in business, or if you are not ready. Picks favorites, I wasn't one of them, biz cafe can be a pain, i did all the work in the group project, ended up with a B-

Great Professor. NOT an Easy A, but if you're looking to learn principles that you can apply to your professional career in business, take this man. Extremely helpful and clear. Study for the exams and you'll be good.

I found this class quite helpful. He is clear with what he explains and if you are really interested in the business world, you'll find this class quite satisfactory. He is a good professor. If you don't mind some hard work and dedication, this is the class for you.

He's nice an all but he's bad. His lecture are boring and he gets of topic so it easy to get lost in his class.The only work you do is BizCafe and a lil paper. He only gives two exams which he never returns and he doesn't give you the grade. Lol literally watched nextflix in his class and got a B so he CURVES A LOT and i didnt even buy the book.
