ECON 2020

midterms, clicker points, TA points,,,, first 200 points do not matter much unless you get A on the final. Even if you get 100% before the final and B+ on the final, you won't get A (grades are based on curve not percentage). However, if someone gets A on the final and 0 out of first 200 points, he/she will get a better grade than you. It seems little bit unfair, but that is how it works. So, just study for the FINAL.

Mreh. Coppock is NOT the shit. He's alright. The Final raped me. NOTE if you are thinking about an Econ major this the last "Easy" class that is not math intensive. ECON 301 will be the true test if you are destined to be an econ major. Good Luck. May the force be with you

Think class is taught by an incapable professor, avoid at all costs.

The lectures are interesting and material is applicable to the real world. A very enjoyable class, and important to attend lectures. However, the tests are definitely hard and can be slightly unfair.

Professor Coppock is a fair and excellent professor. Make sure to attend EVERY class and take EXCELLENT notes since his tests come from what he says in lecture. Also, be sure to memorize all of the random statistics that he mentions, as they come up on the tests.

Oh Coppock. I enjoyed his lectures and thought I really understood the material but then his final was ridiculous. Still you have to take Econ202 for the major so grin and bear it (or don't if you aren't a major).

If you can get into a small-lecture that woulud STRONGLY be encouraged. It is tough to get a good grade b/c midterms are tricky. Study a ton for the final and take your time on it. Know random facts like quotes from famous economists and yearly data figures. Don't skip any lectures. The notes are important.

I felt he was a great in lecture, and all his tests were based off notes, no need to buy the book.

I thought Coppock was a great teacher. Explained difficult concepts easily in class. Pretty Funny. Not necessary to read the book if you go to every class and take good notes. Not really necessary to do anything outside of class. Be warned, some people who "just got" 201 have trouble in this class. Its not really a hard class, but the material is less intuitive.

Lectures were enjoyable and as entertaining as you can make econ. The midterms and final included a lot of random/trivial information about statistics and economists who were not stressed in lecture. But overall it was a worthwhile class.
