Easy class as long as you know how to organize your time. Each week was consisted of one chapter and however many sections they had. Took roughly 2 hours to complete each. Midterms took hour and half, Final took hour. Organize your time and you'll be fine.

Online class is pretty easy. Each week it takes about 2 hours to finish all the work of that week. Write 4 articles which are 1 page each about econ. The tests are online and all multiple choice which are pretty easy.

She is a terrible professor. Very boring and not methodical in teaching. Read the textbook and work out problems with classmate. Take another professor to have better discussions.

I took this professor for Econ 2010&2020 online only class. If you are planning to take her both times then pay the $100 for the access code good for 1 year from the McGraw Hill Connect site, if not then its $75 per semester. You also have to pay $15 for the wall street journal assignments but only if you take her for Econ 2020. Easy A no worries.

Gives weekly homework on myeconlab. Midterm and final are tough if you don't read. Seems not to try since shes already a millionaire... Wouldn't take again.

Took her for Econ 201 (B+) & 202 (B-). She curves so you'll probably pass. However, if you want to learn, read the book, do the homework and quizzes, and study the study plans online. She can be intimidating, but she means well. READ THE BOOK BEFORE GOING TO CLASS! that helps A LOT.

She's a good professor, she curves and is willing to help you if you go to her office hours. I recommend her if you actually put some effort to class you will pass with an A.

i honestly don't know how i got a B in this class, thankful for her curve. majority of the class would do terrible on her tests. the online homework is ridiculous and you basically don't have to attend class

Let me start by saying. Do the homework assignments don't avoid them it is 25% of your grade which is worth more than your first midterm. You will do bad on all your tests but walk away with a B!!!! The class is based on a curve. Don't stress it, but I do encourage you all to read!

*Hybrid Course* If you are going to take this course READ! READ! READ! If you can get a non-hybrid course with a different professor, do so! She teaches through hybrid course, so half online and half face to face. With her classes you meet every other week. You basically learn form the book. There's no prepared lecture, she just wings it.

Comment:
I took her for Econ 201 (B) and 202 (A-), both are hybrid classes (go in every other week) the class isnt even that hard. I half-ass read the book and did all the homework with minimum 93%+ on every hw assignment. You can basically skip every class and just go to the tests and you'll do fine. just don't fall behind.

Speaks openly with students about topics but tends to drag on. Need clearer lectures. Didn't like online homework through PearsonLab.

AVOID!Out of 122 students 75 failed the first midterm and 97 failed the second midterm. She doesn't give you a study guide for the tests and just tells you to read the book.Not very helpful when class meets every other week and you're basically teaching yourself half the quarter.Only take if you don't want to learn anything and just ride the curve.

Comment:
She has an interesting but intimidating presence. The kind that makes you squirm in your seat when she walks toward you because you think she might slap you or pick on you. She made an example out of a student,he has since been isolated in the corner. Real talk her lectures and tests are overly complicated. youre better off just reading and praying

She is a whole lot sweeter than she comes across. Easy to get a B since she curves the whole class, but you have to really study the book if you want an A.

Comment:
This class was taught as a hybrid course so class only took place every other week. I felt like I learned more reading from the book. Take this class if you are not the type of person who likes to show up to class. She curves a lot. Study by reading the textbook and going over the study guides provided by the publisher in myeconlab.
