Comment:
worst professor ever. Not only is he rude and judgmental. This professor is a bully and make it feel like your back in high school. Im surprised hes still working at the university. He will not talk to you or acknowledge you if you dont respond to his emails even if you see then 5 minutes before class and try to talk to him after class

Lots of work. Be awake during class, you'll learn a lot. One of the best lecturers ERAU Prescott has to offer. Very tough grader.

Comment:
Prof Carreras is super cool, he has extreme knowledge for what he teaches. Be prepared to work. NEVER miss class, and take good notes. You can always see him in office if you need any help. He dislikes students that walk in late or use phones, etc. He will crack jokes to keep the class alive, it was super fun. Work hard! Ceteris Paribus!

Comment:
Carreras is a super cool dude. Knows his subject inside and out, and gives very entertaining lectures. Be ready to memorize a lot of stuff! If you try to argue with him about welfare, taxes, minimum wage, social issues, etc from a conservative point of view, be ready to get completely owned by hard formulas and economic theory proving you wrong.

Comment:
Would not take this class with this professor. The fact that he taught more classes required for my major encouraged me to leave the university altogether. Retook the class at a community college and I learned more. In addition, it seems that a lot of his lessons are based on his personal opinions rather than concrete facts found in textbook.

I took his geography class freshman year. I really like him as a person and enjoyed his class. Although he grades his tests harshly. Also I had more work in his class than any of my other classes.

Took macro, micro, and managerial with him. The classes are hard, but he is willing to help you out. Be willing to put in the effort and show up to class and take good notes. You will struggle, but you will learn! One of my top 3 favorite profs at riddle.

A great professor who teaches his subject well. All it takes to get on his good side is to turn in your work on time and visit him in his office every once in a while. He's always willing to help if you show up to his office hours with your book and notes.

Comment:
I loved this class so much I took in three times, finally got an A the last class I took. However, looking back I can say that is the only class I learned anything in at Embry-Riddle. I really didn't go there to learn anything and I still did, I wish the other professors would have made their classes harder.

Comment:
Guy is on a severe power trip and will play favorites all the time. Once he makes up his mind up about you then it is what it is. If he writes you off consider dropping class. My advice take the class online. He is very knowledgeable but doesnt follow the $140 book at all and then asks questions from it. Nearly impossible to get an A.

Extremely knowledgable teacher. Follow the rules and you will excel. He can tell if you are putting effort into his class. If you aren't he doesn't care about you.

i feel like he plays favorites and judges people he doesn't really know. especially biased against people who have not taken his other classes... even when i went out of my way to find out what i missed on a day i didn't feel good, he said it wasn't his problem and blew me off. power trip?

Comment:
While his class is extremely hard, it is rather quite easy because Carreras is always willing to help you in and out of class. He has a great sense of humor, and is by far one of the best professors I have ever had. Micro and Macro should really be taken with him, instead of opting for a CC. You learn a lot, and the class is worth your $$$.
