He is very nice but what we learn in class is NOT on the exams. Way too hard for a level 100 class. Even when I did study the highest I ever got on an exam was a B+. I recommend not taking him for non majors.

Prof. Bakhali is one of the best teachers, especially considering the nature of this class being very hard. You NEED to attend his classes if you want a solid grade. He curves reasonably and encourages you to engage because things can get confusing. His lectures are heavy but fun, because he shows how every topic ties together into the economy.

I never opened the text book, but I attend every class. You basically have to ask questions and dont be afraid to do so. The exams were pretty hard so studying was a definite must. He is a great professor though!

Dr. Bakhali is a really great and funny professor. You definitley need to go to class to understand all the material, but its a pretty easy class overall. He gives 4 exams and there is online homework, but it is not too much work. You have to really study hard though and work for your grade.

You learn a lot in the class as long as you show up. Reading is not required and I only opened the book a couple times in the semester. Grade is based off four exams that include concepts from lecture and multiple examples. He is easy to contact through email. Attendance is not mandatory but he likes the people who come to class regularly.

Exams are tough and very tricky. All the questions come from his lectures. Probably don't need the textbook to pass the class. Sometimes he does seem offended when people ask questions but will answer them. He is knowledgeable about the material and you will learn alot.

Very well laid out, interesting, and (mostly) clear lectures. More than willing to answer questions/clarify on the spot or after class. Managed to get us laughing. The tests were tough, the 1st especially, but did end up providing a very generous curve. Take your time on tests, and ask him to clarify ?'s if not sure. He was always happy to do so!

I'm not very good at ECON, but he explained most things in a way that I could understand. However, I also read the book and did all the sample problems he gave us. Your grade is base off 3 tests only, so study hard.

A wonderful teacher who makes sure to offer real world applications. He brings extensive knowledge and understanding of his field to his class. Showing up to class and taking good notes will take you far in his class. He makes sure to provide all of the resources you will need to be ready for tests and quizzes. I will take one of his classes again

The whole grade was based on three tests including the final, but they were all multiple choice and straight from the book. Lectures were clear and organized, but you really need to read the book to pass.

The class is overall okay, the lectures do not reflect the exams, there are only 4. Read the book, and seriously pay attention to it because the exams are hard! He is a very funny and nice professor but I am a good student and I will be getting a B in it :-(
