Comments Regarding Professor: Smart guy, but drones on sometimes about remedial topics. Much more helpful during office hours. Comments Regarding Course Content: An extension of AP Micro or ECON 102. Not too hard if you can match concepts with the math. Additional Comments: Four exams are your only grades. Better hope you nail the final if you want an A. How would you classify this course?

Comments Regarding Professor: Not a great professor, not very helpful when you talk to him, class seems disorganized Comments Regarding Course Content: Online exams are nice, though it's hard to prepare for them because his lecture material and the book material are pretty different and the test material is a different as well. But as long as you have a strong grasp of Econ 102, you should be alright in Additional Comments: Take this class if you are good at teaching yourself and do well on online exams. Not if you're looking for a good professor. How would you classify this course?

Comments Regarding Professor: Bad teacher. I have nothing good to say about him. He makes easily material difficult, and is hard to follow. He's unorganized and inefficient. Comments Regarding Course Content: The course content is not too bad but it's unclear whether his questions are based on lecture or from the book. Additional Comments: I'm not a big economics person but I think this class could be better with a different teacher. How would you classify this course?

Comments Regarding Professor: Professor is very knowledgeable and tends to go on tangents during lecture. These tangents provide interesting insights to the field of economics, but don't always reflect what is needed for exams. Comments Regarding Course Content: Content is basically an extension of principles of microeconomics. Basic knowledge of calculus is required, and practice problems help nail down abstract concepts. Additional Comments: Discussion sections help study for free response questions on exam by going over practice questions about the week's lecture. How would you classify this course?

Comments Regarding Professor: DiIanni is a great professor. He is easy to understand and sticks to the point. Comments Regarding Course Content: Your only grades in the course are 4 exams, which are all cumulative. This seems scary at first, but you actually do better on the exams because they are cumulative. Additional Comments: I would definitely recommend DiIanni over Vasquez. Vasquez's exams are online, but they are also harder and you don't really learn anything. How would you classify this course?
