Comment:

The course is all on mymathlab and Mr. Pina is really only there if you need help. If you're on a roll, he won't bother you, and if you're ahead of schedule he doesn't mind if you leave whenever. If you do get stuck he's extremely helpful. Mr Pina responds to every raised hand with a "SirMa'am, yes sirma'am?" Respectful, cool guy, perfect teach

Comment:

He is striaght forward. He gives quizzes in most of his classes but he gives the answers to the quizzes so they are always a 100. For the tests he goes straight from the book and he posts his lectures on WebCT. I would recommmend him if you need to take this class.

Good professor. Just read the chapters before the tests and you'll do okay. Attendance is not taken, but quizes in class quizes account for 10% of grade.

Easy B. Must read the book in order to get an A. Class is a bit boring but don't want to miss since there are pop quizzes-he gives you the answers to them most of the time but don't count on it EVERY time. For final, he gives you a chance to review all your tests. All in all, he's a good teacher and I would take him again.

Show up to class cause he gives pop quizzes on every ch. He gives you the answers though. His tests are really easy just read the chapter once and study the notes. The test basically covers the notes and there is a comprehensive final too. Good Professor.

Interesting person. Doesn't seem to like to do a lot of work. Fun simulation in class. Tests are as easy as they come. Don't expect a ton of help fromm him though.

Good prof. Easy A. The notes come directly from the book. Reading optional of course. Last two exams boost your grade from the first test grade, which is the hardest. Just take the class. Trust me.

Comment:

Mr. Pina is a great professor, the first test is the hardest, the next two are really easy. Like your grade after the 3rd test? You don't have to take the final, pop quizes are for attendance purposes, he'll tell ya the answers, and he averaged almost an 8 pt curve on all the tests. Recommend.

Not very helpful, but a good prof. The tests are average in difficulty, if you put in the effort it is possible to get an A.

Mr. Pina is excellent. His goal is for you to understand the ethics of business, with no extra bs thrown in. Just be prepared for hand cramps. Take good notes and read the text. You can do that, right? You're all growed up now. Welcome to the real world. Embrace it and you'll do well in this class.

Comment:

One hint: Don't ever miss a test! He DOES NOT do makeup exams, unless you are delivering a baby. Quizzes are free points, but you have to be there to do them. Tests are ambigious but the first is the worst; study hardest for that one and you'll be fine. Keeps class quick too!

Mr. Pina is so cool. He does give a lot of notes on powerpoint and he doesn't post them on Web-CT. But he is easy to understand and gives you all the answers to his quizes.

Does strange things like throw out questions on exams to improve class grades, uses same questions on quizzes as on exams. Does use a lot of slides and wont post them on web-ct. Keeps regular office hours talks to students before class. Does count off if you use wrong ID on quiz.

Doesn't post notes on web. Bring a Laptop to write down notes, easier this way. Most info out of the book. First test is the hardest. Sort of boring but you must attend because he gives quizes daily.
