Comment:
Worst professor I've ever had. Totally inconsistent with her marking (she gave me an 'E' on the final exam, which I completed with excellent responses in comparison to my midterm exam, which i got a C+ on without writing half of it, and Im a B+ student) Absolutely no review, no syllibus (sp?), relies heavily on her own works.

Comment:
Professr Landa is by far the hardest marker in York's Economics department. 'A' is the highest mark she gives in her courses of which there were only two people. Exams are very long and usually require competion of two written examination booklets to get a good mark. This is not the type of course to take if you are worried about your GPA.

Comment:
No value-added classes. She is always off-topic and talks about her daily life (so do some students.) Her compiled readings are a joke and are barely used, just go with your instincts and class-material recollection for tests and essays! Probably the worst class of my undergrad career(!) as well as the worst prof.

Comment:
She is by far the worst prof I ever had, and Ive had many. She is very arrogant and if you are a sycophant you'll do really well in the class. She is too full of herself, and probably mentioned a million times how many famous professors she knows. Nothing much to learn other than to be a parrot and memorise the notes she give in class line by line.

Very arrogant and self-absorbed. Hard of hearing and narrow-minded. Talks down to students, especially when you ask her questions. Incompetent at communicating clearly. Could easily learn this stuff from reading newspapers and doing your own research --for free!

Can be unclear at times but will try hard to clarify. Material is interesting. Tests may be hard to do well on - just memorize your notes. Not a very work intensive course especially for 4th year - take it.

Arrogant person.Lecture is ok, but always brag her professors were Nobel Prize Winners during the class. Exams are hard and it's impossible to get good marks. recommend not take her courses, it would be waste your money and time.

Comment:
Enormoushly arrogant, and often rude and disrespectful. Uses lectures to shamelessly promote her books and research, and brag about where she's travelled. Method of having students present cases and readings is a waste. She would rather sit down and watch her students teach rather than do the job she's being paid for. Spend your money elsewhere!

Interesting prof, but grades very rigidly. The workload is extremely light, but it seems near impossible to get above a B or B+.

Comment:
Can't apply economics concepts beyond the rigid limits in which she learnt them. Litterally thinks inside a box and can't get out. If you like to think, don't take her class. All the theories she teaches have huge holes which she can't see and consequently, will not acknoledge.

Very hard of hearing, Make sure to participate as I think that is the only thing your mark depends on. A little wacky but fun classes
