Comment:
Professor Baytas is a great professor. His class is not easy but he breaks it down so everyone could understand. He is very patient and will explain anything that anyone doesnt understand. He does not read off powerpoints but rather he draws everything out and talks about the material. He is a helpful, great professor that truly loves his job!

He's a great ECON teacher and shows care for the subject and his students. He lightens up the mood of the class while also being serious when it came to it. Homework is online so it's really easy. If you're taking ECON, Professor Baytas is the one to choose!

Prof. Baytas is who you want to have for Econ. He has a dope personality and likes to bring joy to the classroom. Make sure to keep up with him because he does move quick in his lectures. The answers to the HW are online, so complete and study it because it will most likely be on his exams. He has 3 exams and 8 HWs which are all multiple choice.

I took Baytas about 30 years ago. Definitely one of the best. If you went to class and listened, it was easy. If you did not, it was at your own peril, because he taught micro significantly better than the textbook. His demeanor was hilarious and he gave me great advice in suggesting I leave the Economics major since I was too smart to teach.

AB is awesome, easily the most enjoyable lecture professor I've ever had, he's hilarious and kind. The course is just super tough. All the homework answers are online, do well on those and decent on the exams and midterms and you'll pass. I would show up to lectures, he's very good at breaking down the info and it helps.

Comment:
Prof. Baytas made Economics more fun than I thought it would ever be. He has an amazing personality, and great sense of humor. He can go on and on sometime but bare with him. He barely utilizes the book because he's been teaching the material for 30 years. It's only 3 exams, so stay focused and pay attention EVERY class. Do not cheat on hw either.

Professor Bayatas is one of the best Micro teachers at MSU. He cares about his students and will go out of his way to make sure every student is successful. He can go off tangents at times but it helps lighten the class up. Pay attention and ask questions as it will help you out. Gets a 10/10 with a epic sign of approval. Take him for 101 and 102.

His class is easier during the winter. Sometimes hard to follow because he knows his stuff so he just goes on and on. He cares A LOT about his students. 8 HW and 2 exams, exam questions come from HW. Does curve your overall final grade.

Prof. Baytas really knows how to break down micro-economics and give you all the tips and tricks you need to understand the complicated concepts. the three things you need to do to pass this class : 1) pay attention in class and take good notes 2) pay attention to the tips/ tricks and learn how it actually works don't just memorize 3) do good on HW

3 exams and a homework for each chapter discussed in class. Does not take attendance but I would show up to class. Listen and takes not of lectures and you don't have to read the chapters. Great teacher. He acts crazy in the beginning classes but stick with him and it will be worth it.

The material he teaches is very difficult but he puts it into easy to understand terms. He makes classes fun and entertaining and he has a good sense of humor. You will have to study, and there is some homework, but for an Economics class it was relatively easy and I learned more in his class than most other classes!

Comment:
Professor Baytas, although funny, is just "okay." He likes to ask trick questions which can confuse students. He does explain some topics well, and cares about his students. But, nothing of his lecture will help you on exams. I figured this out after the first exam and stopped coming. Taught myself through the textbook and did loads better.

Took him for a hybrid winter course. He is a great guy and truly cares about his students learning, will repeat himself over and over if need be. He is very passionate about economics and it shows in his teaching ability.

Prof. AB cares a lot about his students, hes more than willing to repeat and go over the material thousand times but wants you to learn and pay more attention. This class is HARD, I mean you gotta work and pay attention to pass the TESTS but the test questions are mostly from HW. Hes funny and makes the class more enjoyable. CURVES FINAL GRADE.

Econ is a tough class but he is one of the best professors to teach it. His tests are based off of homework but you still need to study. He doesnt take attendance but if you skip class you will be lost in the class. Pay attention too. Goes off topic sometimes but he's funny. He's the only professor that makes econ somewhat understandable

Overall just a really cool human being. He cares about his students and does his best to help you understand the information because he knows economics is a tough subject. all of the questions on the exams are either from the homework, examples from class, or he literally tells you it will be on the exam. just read the book and review assignments

The class honestly does not take much effort. For the test, all you have to do is pay attention in class and study the homework assignments that he put up.
