Comment:
DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE WITH ANY OTHERS. As said before me, the workload is INSANE, the prof is LESS than helpful (unless you "pester" him MULTIPLE times). I was mostly confused throughout the entirety of this course, I've asked for help and received VAGUE answers at best. Plus NOT ENOUGH TIME GIVEN FOR TESTS...They're MOSTLY Essay Tests!

Comment:
I don't recommend that anyone take this course unless this is the only course you are taking. The work load is insane.... he really thinks you don't have any other classes.. You must be as passionate as this professor in order to be able to handle this class.... I will never take a class this professor teaches ever....

I took macro in highschool it was the worst class in my life. So I was really worried about taking it in college. Bender was a great teacher who has humor and he is willing to actually help you. I got an A+!! My class was online too.

Comment:
Had Mr. Bender in 1978-1988, Micro & Macro Economics. Both were difficult courses. Mr. bender challanged the class 3 days a week. Both were some of the best classes I ever sat in, learned economic principles that have served me my entire business life.

I got a D, BUT the person advising me didn't tell me to take statistics, SO I got really stuck on graphs. HOWEVER he is a great teacher, but is hard. I did retain alot of info. This course was online, and probably would've helped me if I took a trad. course.(I couldn't) Check your handwriting though he didn't like mine.

I felt like I was taking this class for my MBA not my Associates. Bender needs a reality check on the level of work given to this beginner level economics course.

The class was difficult but if you keep up on the work then it will be no problem! The professor is extremely helpful and is determined to make sure you actually grasp the concepts. Difficult class, but rewarding!

I took this course online and quickly realized I made the wrong decision. The work load was RIDICULOUS. I spent upwards of 20 hrs/wk completing assignments and trying to graps the concepts. Questions were answered with questions and comprehension suffered. Take ONLY if you have prior knowledge and/or interest (and no other commitments)!!!!

prepare to spend 20 hours a week doing work if you're taking his class. apparently he thinks students don't have any other classes to worry about. do yourself a favor and find another teacher.

I took this class online. It is really, really hard for me. If you get lost you will not find your way back. His lectures are long and he is full of himself. If you use his verbage you will do fine, but do not improvise. I recommend taking this class on campus and not online. He answers your question with a question.

Good teacher. Very helpful when you have a problem. Tests can be difficult but if you do the work, you should be fine. Do the extra credit!!
