Comment:

The class is broken down into online homework, 3 exams, and 2 separate readings used as extra credit questions. Lectures are concept based but did not go over problems. Online homework is helpful and will be your main way to study. The final was an exact copy of the 2nd exam. Watch youtube videos on concepts and you should be fine.

REVIEW FOR ECONOMICS 2100 By far the worst professor i have ever taken in Brooklyn College. His attitude is disgusting and isn't willing to help. Gives two exams and a final. throughout the semester he has changed his syllabus THREE times. AVOID HIM. Doesn't know how to teach.

Comment:

Professor is great as a person. He's knowledgeable but the class itself is so boring omg everyone was asleep, not paying to attention and wanted to go home. Be prepared for a presentation (by YOURSELF) for the research paper you've previously wrote (15 pages) . You do need the book and to participate most of us were LOST. Good luck ;)

Professor Thorne made the course very easy to understand. His lectures were soo smooth that even a hard material seemed easy. I did all the homeworks and followed his class lectures and instructions and I got an A+. If you follow his guidelines you'll pass with flying colors.

Comment:

One of the best professors! The course itself isn't the easiest, but doable. Three exams and 4 papers. End-of-the-chapter problems are must. Homework was never graded, but believe me, if you do your homework you'll have absolutely no problems with exams, which are multiple choice plus extra credit essay question).

All his classes are hard; 720, 725, and 722, but believe me, he is able to make it easy for you. If you do not have statistic background or Accounting major you should take his class. He will guide you, he is helpful, will solve more exercises and problems in the class to make it easy. HE IS REALLY GREAT PROFESSOR.

Comment:

He didn't explain the material,but gave hard exam and term project.In addition, his final grade based on final exam only, It appears he doesn't check student's homework. Do not take this class unless you have to. And if you have to take it, take during summer semestr if possible.
