Kydd is an amazing professor outside of the class. Took this class online. This class in general is hard, but if you go to her office hours she will take the time to make sure you know everything for the exam and even help you with exercises! Really good prof.

Awesome professor. First online class I've ever taken. 3 tests worth 25% each, and 8 assignments (2 lowest get dropped) worth the other 25%, all which have extra credit. Just watch all the lectures, do all the assignments, and do all the practice tests, which HEAVILY resemble the actual test, and you'll get an A. Not much of a time commitment tbh.

Print out of slides are awesome. SO many projects though, and long projects. A 2-3 hour case study or assignment every week. Sometimes she gives lectures and the entire class looks so confused and lost. Doesn't check in to make sure everyone is following her so it can be easy to get lost. Goes quickly but the quizzes are exactly like her handouts.

Fortunately, every exam and quiz is open note, but that doesn't mean they aren't hard. Make sure you do lots of practice with the problem and have organized notes and you should be fine! Great professor!

I mean in general this class is just hard, there's no way around the difficult material. Out of all the professors though, kydd is definitely your best option to make it out alive. Keep up with the work and take the practice exams and GO TO OFFICE HOURS if you need help, and you can get an A easily. Lots of extra credit within the exercises.

Wonderful professor. She is very helpful in office hours and has clear lectures. Exercises are time consuming, but you don't have to do all of them. Exams are straightforward and similar to practice exams. The length of exams can make them difficult, though. Overall, I highly recommend taking Dr. Kydd for this class.

Dr. Kydd is a wonderful woman! She is super sweet and wants her students to succeed. She does her best to help you out on the assignments, which there are a lot of. The amount of work can seem overwhelming at times, but that is because it comes in waves. Half the material is interesting and half is very dry.

Dr. Kydd is a sweet woman teaching a class that isn't that great. The material is far from interesting, but she tries her best to make students relate to it. She doesn't take the time to explain the quantitative aspects of the material and flies through her PowerPoints, so you can't take notes. Examsquizzes are open material, which helps.

Took it online and it was a breeze. Put in minimal time and still did well. The assignments were long but you do not have to do every one of them. The exams are just like the practice exams, plus you can bring a cheat sheet to the exams. Recommend this online class.

One of the best professors I've had. The class isn't super exciting, but once Kydd comes out of her shell, it's not so bad. SO SO SO SO HELPFUL! Email her with any question at any time and she will respond quickly with a clear, complete answer. Such a nice, easygoing woman. The class is a lot of work, but you can do well. Kydd is worth it.

Comment:
Not the most entertaining professor but she makes it so all you have to do is understand the concepts and examples in class, and then be able to replicate the procedures during exams. This is especially easy because you are allowed to bring notes to these exams. Overall, straightforward class, solid professor. But you may nap occasionally.

Very dry and not engaging, but fair, nice, and cares about students. All classes recorded and online. Wish attendance wasn't mandatory. No reading required. Hardly any notes to take since everything's in the book. Overall, would recommend, but bring some coffee.

I took the online class this summer. The class assignment was packed and more than I expected. As long as you kept the pace outlined by the class, you can get good grade. The communication from the teacher is good, I usually got the response within a day, even sometimes during the weekend. The teacher didn't use any text book which is also a plus.

This class is a lot of work, but Kydd does a good job of explaining the material and makes it easy to do well. Class can be very boring. 2 open note exams. 4 open note quizzes (lowest dropped). 4 relatively time consuming assignments, 2 very time consuming group papers/assignments and a time consuming final assignments/paper. Overall a good class

Kydd makes it easy to do well in this class. The material can be dry, but if you start day dreaming, the slides and audio of the lecture are posted online. You can bring in 4 pages of notes to each exam. Exams mirror homework assignments, as longs as you co do those, you can do the exam. No cumulative final. Extra credit offered.

She goes through the slides a million miles an hour. Class is so boring dreaded going to it every time. Taught myself all of the material before the exams. Nice lady and does offer some extra credit. Take home assignments help grade and understanding the material.

HORRIBLE. Let's just say that this class helped me SWITCH majors and out of the business college. Discussion teacher was useless and only talked about Jack Daniels. Class focused on Exelon Exelon Exelon. She never taught - always guest speakers. Mandatory attendance.
