Comment:

I'm not a student who learns in the classroom but Professor Thomas lectures are clear and useful. Her exams are tough but if you keep up with the class they are more than fair. You come out of this class actually having learned the material and proud of the grade you received.

Definitely one of my favorite professors at Bentley. She will make you work for your grade but it pays off in the end. Always willing to help students and explain concepts.

Definitely not the hardest class I've taken, and I've learned a lot-but studying's a must. Somtimes the tests seem hard, but they're actually pretty easy. Recommend if you want to really learn something.

Comment:

Such a nice professor and a good teacher, but the tests are the hardest tests I've ever taken in my life. Believes the average grade should be a C, and says grades don't matter, but your entire grade is tests and quizzes. If you want to learn a lot, take her, but prepared to study real hard.

Great professor. She has her PHD in Micro, and def knows her stuff. Her class is SO HARD! I learned a lot but my grade def did not reflect that... hardest class soph year by far. If you are willing to keep up with the work and work HARD you will benefit.

She is an amazing professor. She gives you all the powerpoints and then goes over them in class. There are 2 tests and a project. She explains every thing really well and is more than willing to answer any questions.

Tough class, but I would take her again. She is very well organized and very fair. You have to do a lot of work to get a good grade. I reccomend her to you if you want to work hard and learn something.

Comment:

I was not that interested in economics before I took the class, Prof. Thomas really changed my view. She made me realize how important it is to understand econ theory & how it's applied daily in business. I guess I'd look pretty dumb in my first job if I didn't have a clue about what was going on in the economy. She's works hard to help students.

The highest quality of professor at Bentley. Demands the best from her students, fair grader. Very nice, very helpful lady. If you can't get help from Thomas you should re-evaluate how you seek help.

Awful professor she doesn´t encourage participation in class. It is a monologue. It is impossible therefore to ask questions in class.

Comment:

One of the best professors at Bentley if you're interested in being challenged and learning something that has practical value and real world application. If you want to coast, not get involved, get a high grade without working take someone else - better still go to a community college.
