Comment:
Dr. Saba is the cornerstone professor of the Aviation Management Program at McGill. LOTS of interesting PowerPoint slides that he does not share with students, but he does not mind if you take snapshots with you phone from time to time. VERY caring and supportive. TALKS a lot, but very knowledgeable and interesting. CHALLENGING term project.

Comment:
One of the best profs at McGill. Saba is a great guy who actually cares about students. He may seem like a typical serious prof but he's actually quite nice and approachable. Slides are fun and very colourful but you need to take down notes like mad. Although he can be a bit verbose but this is still my favourite class, learned so much! Thumbs up!

Comment:
One of the most boring classes I've ever taken. Each lecture, he shows you zillions of slide but does not upload them on mycourses. Sticks to the textbook but goes deeper than the text with his slides. Attendance mandatory. I'd say do not take it.

Super interesting course with Saba. He tries his best to make his class everything but boring. Smart guy, teaches with loads of examples. Group project paper had B+ (we only started it a few days before deadline) You can easily ace that paper. Attendance secures u a 10% of ur final grade. Midterm: MC questions. Fair grader, got an A- final grade.

Show up to class to get attendance marks and some of his examples in the final will be pulled straight out of in class examples. Other than that read the book, understand it and you'll get an A.

Go to lectures, write notes like mad. If you do, most of the material will stick to your head. The project isn't too hard. MAKE SURE YOU GET GOOD TEAMMATES. Easy A.

Too hard to keep up with this teacher. He is way too fast paced and does not post slides online. In order to pass his class, read the book and do the MYECON lab and hopefully you will pass the class.

Best course I have taken so far at McGill..most interesting topics. Saba is a funny guy often. Team paper subjects are interesting-but some challenges with group members. Take the course. You won't regret it.

jokes course, isn't that hard, even if you have no prior knowledge of anything. If you've ever taken a course relating to international affairs you will be bored by the material but.. it is what it is.
