Our final grade was just made up of 4 exams (the lowest exam gets dropped), an essay which was an easy 100, and homework. The homework was easy and you can find all the answers online. It was weekly, always due on Sunday. I didn't show up to any classes and I still managed to get a B+ easily.

He gives good lectures, if you pay attention you will learn useful career information. He provides lots of internship opportunities. The book is a bit of a drag. The chapters are long and dry. The tests are all from a test bank, look up the quizlet questions for each chapters before the exam and you'll get an easy A. Don't stress about the paper.

Pretty good professor. His lectures are very helpful. Lots of easy homework to boost grade. Exams are pretty straight forward as long as you study the lectures. He usually curves the exams and is very understanding. Also, assigned a super easy paper about ourselves that was an easy A. Learned a lot from this class!

Mark is a great professor that genuinely cares about the grades of his students. The tests do require you to study quite a bit, but the MyLab quizzes really help to prepare. His exams are on proctorU, but he curves his exams to help everyone out a bit. Overall, there's 1 easy paper, 4 exams (lowest drops) and MyLab work every Sunday.

Mark knows a lot about business but also is really sarcastic and a bit harsh. We were mostly graded on exams, which were tough and really specific. I read the textbook and studied a lot but still struggled. He curved them because he wants students to do well, but I felt like this class required a lot of work and I didn't really learn much.

Great professor. People say he is not a caring professor but he just doesn't put up with BS. If you put the effort in you will be fine, he also curves the exams a lot. Would definitely take his classes again, he knows what he's talking about and is also a pretty funny guy.

Worst professor that I have ever taken. He doesn't care about students at all and doesn't want to be bothered by anyone. He tries to act nice by curving the exams a little but he also tells students to send him wine after he curves them. I would recommend never taking a class taught by this man. A complete jerk.

Worst professor I've had. Nothing he teaches in class is on the exams. He always has to curve the exam like 12% and we all still get Cs and Ds WITH with curve. Apparently he used to be good but doesn't care anymore. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS.

Mark is such a respectable man. 3 exams & a final, lowest gets dropped. 1 group project that was easy. Helps a lot with career advice, resumes & offers so many job opportunities. Got an A in 301 with him also. Do the practice in the book for exams. He's funny, if you have a good sense of humor. Direct & accurate representation of the real world.

Professor Mark is a nice person, a knowledgable businessman. He shares helpful resources to students who need an internship or job. However, he does not pay much attention to the grades. Lectures are inspirational but are not so helpful for the exams. 4 Exam's questions are wordy and illogical like a crossword than comprehension. READ THE BOOK!!!

I didn't hate Bambach. He was kind of a jerk, but as long as you went to class, took notes on his lectures (he would talk about concepts and use examples, and test you on exactly that), you'll do fine on the exams. There's a group project, but his exams are straight-forward. Don't get the online book. You don't need it.

exams were pretty hard, you really have to read the chapters before not just look at your notes. the class wasn't too hard just one easy presentation and 4 exams. mark is a good professor if you want someone to help you with internships and jobs. however, he is not approachable at all if you have a question he seems annoyed if you talk to him

Professor Bambach is the hardest professor I have had (I'm a senior) for a course that should not be. The material seems practical and interesting but his exams are completely conceptual. You memorized all of your notes? It won't help you. I have never rated a prof but I thought this was necessary. Do NOT take him for 471. Extremely disappointed.

Honestly this guy is the worst professor I have ever taken at UD and I've had some bad in the past. He is not a nice person and teaches NOTHING that are on his exams. All he does is stand up there and flex how rich he is. You literally need to memorize the textbook in order to do well. DO NOT take this professor - there cannot be anyone worse.

I love him! He is so nice. You really have to do the work to get a good grade (pay attention, read the text), but he makes the class so enjoyable for students. I loved his classes!!!!!!!!!!

You take 4 tests and that is basically your entire grade, the tests are all based off of the book, and a lot of the questions are difficult to understand. To see what you got wrong you have to go to his office hours which are before 8:00 Am and you only get 15 minutes...

Pretty good professor. You HAVE to read the textbook to do decently well on the exams, and even then it's really hard to get As. He curves them, but not a lot. Office hours are early in the morning and very quick and he's not that much help outside of class. Sort of blows you off. Overall not a bad class, but worked super hard for less of a reward.

He is more like a business man than a professor. You may read a lot but still don't know the answer about the exam. The pop quizzes may be the only reason for the attendance. Did curve, but not that much.

Go to class he gives random in class quizzes. Difficult exams but curves. Could not care less about his students, is very rude, and has 15 minute office hour appointments which is enough to say my name and that's about it.
