Comment:
Extremely difficult class that I would recommend prior to entering a graduate level econ program. Tackles the math tools required to take you beyond the beautiful assumptions you're used to working with as an undergrad. Reffett is RIDICULOUSLY available for help - expect to work.

Comment:
Dr. Reffett is an extremely intellectual and friendly man. His course is beyond ridiculously difficult levels of reason, but he will always be willing to work with you, and as long you are willing to put forth the tremendous work and effort required for this course. Dr. Reffett is inspirational, motivating and all around terrific teacher.

Comment:
horrible handwriting. intelligent guy, but does not know how to convey the material in an effective manner. spends a lot of time criticizing the textbook, which i can understand why; but then use a different book. annoyed the living crap out of me. the class itself is difficult, and he does not make it any easier. look for another professor.

Seriously horrible teacher, uses only models that are scratched on overheads NO EXAMPLES. I had to teach myself everything out of the book. Find a different professor, I'm pissed now I have to take this class in the summer with someone who can teach.

Comment:
I took him and bailed out of the class because he is by far the worst TEACHER I have ever taken. He knows his material, but he is very poor at communicating and explaining the material. Who still handwrites on a projector anyway?

Knows his material very well and if you like economics, as you should as he only teaches classes required for majors, you should find him entertaining.

This guy has no idea how to teach. He knows the material, but does not know how to explain it. I would highly recommend you avoid this teacher. He will put you to sleep and teach you nothing. If you are good at economics and want to skip class, have at it. Everyone else, look for another class.

Worst teacher I have ever had. He is very lazy and arrogent, and could care less about his students. DO NOT TAKE A CLASS FROM HIM. He is impossible, you will not learn a thing from him!!!!
