Comment:
Sumon is a beauty. The class is really hard, but this is one of those instances where I can promise you that it's not the professors fault that you don't understand it. You need to put in the hours to understand 310, it's very math heavy and calls upon a lot of knowledge from 255 and MATH 121/126. Take 310 with him if you can.

Comment:
Makes it very difficult to learn outside of class. He is free during his office hours to help which is great, but if you can't make those and you miss a class, you're out of luck. He also doesn't have any extra examples to help with the assignments so they can be ridiculously hard to figure out. Google was my prof.

Comment:
Simon is a great prof! 310 is a difficult course and he does try to challenge his students, but assessments were still fair. He explains material very clearly and is always willing to stop and clarify or help students that ask. If you're willing to put in the work, high marks are attainable.

Comment:
Sumon is an excellent lecturer - clear, precise, and intelligent. Whenever a prof says the textbook isn't necessary I usually worry (as in 90% of cases they end up being sub-par lecturers and students suffer) but Sumon was great. Everything you needed to know truly was taught in class. Fair assignments, fair tests. A+ very attainable with effort.

Comment:
The textbook is only good for the proofs. I sometimes found his notes didn't help me with the assignment questions at all, but the assignment keys are perfect for studying from the exam. Thus, the assignment marks were quite low for econ. He does a good job teaching a hard course. He wants you to do well and understand.

Take 310 with Sumon. He is the man. Our class average was 82%. He cares a lot about his students and really wants to make sure that everyone understand the material. One of the better profs I've had in Queen's Econ.

Overall a good professor. All material needed for assignments, midterm, and final is presented clearly in class. Be alert of errors in assignments and answer keys, though. One-on-one, Majumdar is adequately helpful.

A good professor. Made solution sets for past finals and truly seemed to want everyone to do well and understand the material. If only other professors possessed the same attitude QED would be a better place.

Comment:
He doesn't make the course unnecessarily complicated. He really knows how to teach. His midterms and final exams are very fair. The assignments are a little tough, but they help you learn and he's good about accepting them a day or two late. He is a little unfriendly one on one though.

Great prof for core micro. Actually seems to care about students (that's so rare in QED) and a good, clear lecturer to boot. His assignments are brutal, but his midterm and exam are very fair. I enjoyed 310 with him.
