Quiz every week which is open book and are based on his notes. His exams are also open book but are very specific. Get ready to write his notes in small index cards.

You can do nothing about this professor because he is the head of the department. The only thing you can do is to stay away from him. He is highly mean and rude. I did not learn anything and honestly, I would not take him again. Good luck guys.

Comment:

For the sake of your grade & sanity, avoid this professor! He makes class more difficult than it should be. He makes you read his 20+pg notes & expects you to read the notes multiple times along with the textbook chapter. Textbook is not necessary. His grading is really poor. Expect to receive someone else's grade as he makes many grading errors.

Comment:

The professor makes this class more complicated than it'd be. Confusing notes Lectures are not organized. Do Not allow using electric devices during class otherwise you will have penalties. A lot of class policies. Quiz every week which questions are not related to the answers. Index cards allowed, but you can't find answers. Stressful STAY AWAY!!

Comment:

He's a nice guy but he expects his students to just focus on his class. If you want to do relatively well in his class literally copy his slides on index cards, be on time to class, participate, do what he asks you to do and don't argue with him even if you're right.

Comment:

The textbook material is actually pretty simple, but he makes his own notes that over complicate the topic to stroke his ego. Professor Loomba. His quizzes are the worst i've ever seen, so specific for no reason. If you aren't there when the class starts even if you come later it counts as absence, which neg. affects grade. Avoid if possible

Comment:

In all honesty, if you can, avoid him. His lecture notes are really long and he expects you to know everything, if you don't, he makes fun of you in front of the entire class. However, he is very enthusiastic about the material he teaches, and you can see that he know his stuff. Fair grader to some student, good person, but not the best professor.

Comment:

Professor Loomba really does care about his students and tries hard to push them to do well. However, I would not recommend taking his class if you don't want to do a ton of work on your own. You must read his personal lecture notes over and over again to understand the concepts (they are very long). Don't take unless you want to study for hours.

Comment:

Disgustingly bad professor. Preaches nonsense every class, you won't have any idea what he is talking about. Makes fun of those who don't know the answers to his questions which don't make sense. For example "Illuminate p-hat". That is his question. The correct answer, to him, is a three hundred word response. Do not take him.

Super tough professor. Expects you to prioritize his class over your own life. Dont take if youre not a operations management major. He picks his favorites early. Alienates the students who dont read/ who answer questions wrong. Lots of extra credit opportunities & curve. Lets you use unlmtd index cards on tests & quizzes. Tough class, Toughguy

Comment:

Curves heavy apparently. LOTS OF MATERIAL. Copying on index card does help. But it gets heavy in the end so by the last couple of chap just know it and write formulas. Stats all over again. Popquizzes, 2 midterm, 1 group case study. Extra credit but meh. SHOW UP TO CLASS. Free points. Material is HEAVY&time consuming.

Comment:

The most awful professor I've ever had in my life. His lectures are hard to understand and his blackboard notes are all disorganized and nonsense. He marks you absent if you're 5 minutes late, take points from you if don't answer his questions and he can be quite unreasonable. Avoid the trouble and DON'T take him.

A real professor who teaches us passionately. He is very serious about learning and that is what Baruch needs more! Very understanding and caring for us. I consider myself lucky to have met him and an honor to be taught from him! He is caring knowledgeable and an amazing lecturer, do take him if he still will teach it will be a memorable experience

Comment:

Prof. Loomba is a good person. However, his class doesn't reflect who he is. To do well in his class, you need to read his notes 100% and you prob won't do well on the exams even then. YOU MUST show up to every class and his before class tutoring to do well. Failed every test but showed up and participated and got a B+. Avoid if you can.

Comment:

Had an A on his class even though I've flunked most if not all, of his exams. Show up to class every day, arrive 30 minutes early to class, stay out of his radar, and you will do fine. With that being said, he grades based on class performance, so you better hope that everyone is doing as bad as you are. Class has a lot of confusing math in it.

Don't skipped class and no cell phone. A lot of reading. Each chapter have about 20 pages. Read the chapter again and again until you understand. Be prepared before class because he will asked questions if nobody said anything. 2 exams and quizzes

Fair grader will work with you but for his test don't pay attention to a thing he says read the entire book and all of his 300+ pages of notes only way to pass is to be better then everyone else in the class. DO NOT take this professor if you don't plan on going to every class and reading every word in management textbook and notes

Nice class, he provides additional lecture notes that is much longer, but they really help you understand material. Don't be late even for 3 minutes, he will mark you absent. Attendance is mandatory. He gave 4 quizzes, to get credit just make note cards for every single lecture. His final is hard, a lot of calculation, but he curves. Good one!!!
