Comment:

Worst professor I have ever had at WMU. Makes concepts extremely more difficult than they need to be and the exams are all open ended essay response questions. It is almost like she enjoys watching her students suffer for credits because it is a required course for your BBA.

Comment:

She is the worst teacher I have had at wmu because her lectures, presentations, and homework dont effectively prepare you for the exams. Expect to fail if you don't show up or do the homework. She curves grades but my class still had an average of 70% on exams.

Made test harder than needed, couldnt figure out if it was matching or multiple choice, does not help you when you ask question about upcoming test, boring class, take if you want to waste money on a class you will retake

Comment:

Dr. Pozo was a good teacher. I learned a lot in her class and feel that she did a great job in covering in class what was going to be on the exams. All the handouts were relevant to the exams, and the class is graded on a curve. Go to class and do the homework and you should get an easy A.

Hated this class. She made it harder than it needed to be. Two and a half hour classes once a week. I hated my life. Do not take her class.

Comment:

UGH. LAZIEST PROFESSOR EVER. I took this class to satisfy 2 requirements, BOY WAS THIS A MISTAKE! "Dr." Pozo thinks she is smarter than she really is, and displays this by making simple concepts extremely difficult. She excels in making this class harder than it needs to be. Avoid her at all costs.

Easiest Econ class I have ever taken. Need to go to class and all test are from lectures. You don't even read the book. If you go to class you'll do just fine.

She is a great professor. Very interesting because she has a lot of research and is actually well-known in the academia. This helps to get a lot of respect towards her. She is very helpful and you really have to study hard in her classes. Is worth it!

Comment:

She is a joke of a teacher. The class alread sucks to begin with, and she is sooooo unclear on what to study. Do the Aplia HW in class, ignore what she is lecturing on. Missing inclass assignments can hurt your grade, so I do actually reccomend going to class. She's the worst teacher at this school

Comment:

Lectures are incredibly useless. I'd do other homework while waiting for the weekly in-class assignments. I did the Aplia and READ A PAPER COPY OF THE BOOK (which helped the most) and I did fine on the tests and got an A in the class. However, I had to do all the learning on my own.

Comment:

Worst professor I have ever had. I went to her for help and she just looked at us because she wanted to eat her lunch. I studied for 12 straight hours + and I FAILED both exams. Tests are impossible, APLIA sucks and she could care less. Take her if you want to fail.

Am WMU alum with a BA in Economics - she was the worst prof I had in all my undergrad for one reason and one only - she was mean man! Like she wanted you to fail. My dad passed away when I was in her class and she didn't even give me a break...****
