she's nice, she wants student to participate, she is motherly figure, discuss chapters on every class, 2 exams. 1 extra credit paper, if you participate she gives you extra points, if the whole class doesn't participate she will pick randomly, if you don't know the answer just simply/politely tell her u don't know and she will ask you to answer ltr

She was a great professor. Only problems were that the tests were super difficult. Couldnt even let us use notes or go back to review a question. Shes also a tough grader when it comes to assignments. The material is alright. Didnt get to do a lot of material this year because of the hard semester online. But she is very nice and respectful.

Very understanding, kind person, who will hear you out and respect your opinions. Just as long as you participate, read, and study, she won't give you a single problem.

Professor Repetti is by far the best professor I have ever had. She is so caring and she truly wants you to do well. In class, we read a few short stories regarding philosophical topics and discussed them as a class. The discussions were very interesting. The homeworks take 10 minutes to complete. 100% recommend taking her class, you won't be bored

Easy A! She really cares about students and offers A LOT of extra credit! Your grade is entirely based on the midterm, final, and 2 groupwork(just a paragraph of your group's opinion on certain topics, super short & easy) Exams were 25 T/F, fill-in blanks & short response. P.S. If you ask for help on exams she'll tell you if your answer is correct!

Professor Repetti is so caring and treats everyone as equals. This class is about hot topics that people often try to avoid. I really enjoyed approaching the topics from other perspectives. Make sure to write down whatever she repeats it's critical info.

I really liked Professor Repetti. The class was engaging and fairly easy with little work. I do want to say its more philosophy based than actual business ethics , but the concepts can intertwine. a must take!!

This review is long over due, but I would like to say it has been a pleasure having to learn from Professor Repetti. There may be days where she is absent a lot but please be understanding. She is always willing to give second chances, but do not take advantage of this respected professor.

Professor Repetti is by far the best professor I have ever had. She gets the whole class to engage in group discussions and makes any topic super interesting. I don't think I will ever be able to stop talking about how much I loved her class. Definitely would take her!!!! Not difficult at all and very interesting class.

Her class was really boring, but the readings were quick and easy. A lot of group work and presentations, which is easy if you do the readings. We had a lot of conversations about each others personal lives, which I didnt find helpful. But overall, okay class, easy to pass.

Professor Repetti is awesome. She is nice. she understands her students really well. She is caring too. I was a horrible test taker, but with her assistance she allowed me to do well in the class. She gives a quiz and midterm and final that counts twice your grade. I would want her to consider is have presentation and projects that count as a test.

Prof. Repetti is excellent at teaching, she is very nice and gives most of her notes orally, so you have to come to class. Her class is organized around participation, some group work, a midterm and a final. She teaches very well and gives a lot of personal examples to make the material digestible. One of the actual good ones in the school.

Shes a nice professor, easy A, and she works with you, however shes BORING. She goes on unnecessary tangents about her personal life, and we barely did any of the readings. Her tests are tricky, if you dont read whats assigned. She was 10-15 minutes late every single class, including the first day.

Very easy, but nothing that wasn't in intro. Allowed unrelated tangents but discouraged any conversations about philosophy that weren't in her course material-even directly about the topic. Brought up examples that a quick google shows didn't happen, check snopes. Absent and late constantly. She taught 2/14 readings by the midterm. Seems nice tho.

A rare teacher at Brooklyn College that actually cares for her students. The material is broken down in a way that is very digestible. Fun class overall. First time in a long time that I've actually enjoyed coming to a class.
