I don't know why this guy is only rated 3.6 so I had to bump it up. He is extremely enthusiastic about the subject and his classes consists half of him talking about interesting stuff and the other half he reads through the slides. Super helpful, always willing to chat. And he extended my project by 2 days :) whadup

Great guy, class can be a bit random, but the stuff you learn is very valuable. I would take this class a second time just because its that valuable and he's such a good teacher.

Comment:

There's absolutely NO need to attend this class. You can get an EASY 90 by simply reading the text. Sparks adds nothing as he simply reads the text to you, it would have been nice for him to put some effort into it.

Kinda dry, but chaulk that up to the selection of textbook. Gives very good practical financial advice. The project was interesting but required a lot of work. His final was too long.

Comment:

A good prof overall. 467 was really interesting for the most part and economics was decent. I found his most useful advice had less to do with the course material and more to do with general life advice, which was actually quite nice and much appreciated by everyone I think.

Comment:

As useless as his class and his 'project' is lame. His anecdotes don't contribute at all to anything in class either. Oh, and don't bother going to see him outside of class time.
