You spend the entire class coping down what he writes on the board and then trying to fit all the notes on a sheet of paper that you can use on the tests

Hard to understand at first. Tries to be funny and sometimes succeeds. Puts too many ambiguously worded multiple choice questions per test. If you have cribs, great! Knows his stuff but seems as if he's bored with the topic- has been teaching the same class for years. Excellent human-being and learns your name very quickly in a 50+ student class.

A great professor. He cares so much about his students. If you show him you care, he will help you until you understand no matter how long it takes. He is the most enthusiastic professor you will ever find.

Very good teacher, seems like he has his curriculum down to a science and his tests really fit his lectures. Some test questions have confusing verbiage but they are still easy to ace

Great teacher and really passionate. Hard to read his writing but ask and he'll say it again and isn't offended by it. Hilarious and keeps your attention most of the term, even if you already know economics from high school. Study 3+ cribs for each test and you'll have almost all the questions. Can't wait to have him again!

He's just a guy you have to love. He cares so much about his students and is extremely enthusiastic about his teaching.You'd be hard pressed to find a teacher that loves teaching as much as he does.

He does not puke his own political ideology over everything. You can't tell what his leanings are after the class. A refreshing breath after having the other Marxists in the LA dept.

Okraku is one of the best econ teachers out there. This guy knows his stuff - and is really, really funny most of the times. His favorite examples of products to compare are "guns, and butter". Great class. Study for the tests, and the final is basically a bunch of questions off all the tests you took.

Take this guy for all of your econ classes. Makes class interesting and is always available if you don't understand something. Usually drops a test or two out of the 3-4 he gives. Tests require some studying, but his papers are cake - incredibly easy grader. Put in some effort and you're guaranteed an 'A'.

Awesome prof. Got a 98 in the class, didn't study for a single test. Go to class, put some effort into the final, and you'll get an A easy. Good guy too.

Awesome prof. If you don't understand something, he is very helpful. Always go to class, he gives you extra credit sometimes for just being there. Very cribbable. The end of the term paper is easy. He also allows you to write an extra credit paper. I failed all of my tests and ended up with an 82 in his class.
