Comment:

Macroeconomics. Not helpful at all. Buy the book and spend a significant amount of time reading it. Do the homework he assigns and make sure you understand the concepts. I rarely went to class but I studied the book and received an A. If you don't like reading and can't understand theory and apply it to questions then avoid.

All lecture. Show up to class and read the chapters. He is not very friendly, and tends to make you feel stupid when you ask a question.

Comment:

It is a great idea to attend his lectures, but read the chapter, highlight the key points, and read them more than once. But if you just read the book you could earn an A in the class. He's intimidating when you ask him a question and patronizes you.

Comment:

Very difficult class. He is very scattered with his thoughts,and when asked a question in order to clarify he shoots you down and embarrasses you infront of your classmates. If you expect to pass count on reading the book over and over. I spent much time reading, and ended with a C+.Starts new chapters before even tested on the previous ones.AVOID!

Worst professor every. Is very rude. Wont let you ask any questions. If you do ask any questions he makes you feel so dumb. Tests are just like him scattered and sometimes he doesn't even know if his answers are right. Avoid this class at all cost!

Comment:

If you take this class and expect a good grade, consider spending tons of time reading and understanding the textbook. Visit all the lectures, do homework. You will be asked the main concepts on the exam, so you should know your material. I spent enormous amount of time reading the textbook and eventually got an A. Basically, it was self-education.

Comment:

Material on test often had nothing to do with lectures. However, he is fair, dropping the lowest test and offering extra credit that can boost u a letter grade (if done properly). Talk to him and let him know your concerns, he is fair in that respect and you'll get a C. Apply yourself and show up to every class!!

Horrible professor. Wouldnt recommend taking him for this class. His test are all multiple choice and does drop the lowest scored exam but makes the exam questions very tricky.

Comment:

He was somewhat sarcastic and would shut you down if you ask silly questions or give wrong answers, but it wasn't bad. You can tell he means no harm and he's sarcastically funny too. Had a very good handle on the material and explained things clearly. If you do your reading before class you'll do just fine. Grades from tests (drops 1) and final.

Comment:

Very rude at times. Thought he was better than us just because he was the professor. Also very intimidating. I feared giving a wrong answer in class because he made you look stupid in front of your peers. I recommend NOT taking this professor.

Comment:

I would not recommend this professor to anyone. He is extremely unclear in his explanations and his tests reflect nothing of what he covers. He is also very rude and intimidates the students if they dare to ask the questions. Also unresponsive and boring.

I took tis class in the summer. He moved way to fast and did not want to answer questions. If you did have the nerve to ask a question he would answer you like you were stupid.

Comment:

This teacher is a liar. He state if you did the extra using the wallstreet journal, he would give you a one letter grade higher. I was between a b/c grade and turned in the extra credit. But I still received a C. I emailed him, called him but I received no answer. Don't take this Joker

Comment:

Horribly stubborn. He decided that he needed to miss a months worth of classes during the middle of the semester, and expected that the class attend weekend sessions to make up the time. Tenure at work. The material warranted a full time professor and the class received a part-time one at best.

Comment:

Prof was ok. He rambles on and seems to never get to the point. He gives three tests and drops one which is good! He could be worse I suppose, but he got on my nerves. His shoes squeek horribly and he walks around the room while you are taking exams!

Comment:

He's an ok teacher, he's not too hard compared to the other 201 teachers i've heard about. He only gives like 3 tests and the final is what i hated though it's comprehesive which is dumb. you need to study the material to pass, the good thing is that he curves, and if u get 50% right then u get a C
