You feel like you are learning a great deal in this class. Then you take the final and he tricks you. I personally did terrible in this class and unless you can devote a HUGE amount of time to it, don't take it.
The class was enjoyable and he handles the large lecture very well. Midterms are very similar to his notes but the final is difficult.
Good course. However, he will attempt to screw you by having you identify an excessive number of statistics/quotes/people etc.
Good lecturer and he makes his classes interesting despite their size. Tests are very fair and easy if you study the lecture notes.
Not a great class, but necessary for economics/commerce kids. Go to lectures and do the readings and you'll be fine.
Mr. Coppock is a great proffesor and a great person. I definately recommend this course after taking ECON 201.
The class lectures were extremely boring. Basically, your grade is determined by the final (either 50% or 100%). The test questions didn't seem to really test your knowledge. Know current event information! I would not recommend this class for non-econ majors because it isn't very interesting.
Coppock is enthusiastic, but fails to impart this in his very, very large class. The material itself is useful and interesting, if you enjoy economics. Final is a bit tricky, but midterms are pretty easy. Rodrigo is the man.
While this class is a prerequisite to many of the other economics classes, the lectures are very dry. However Giandomenico is a great resource as good as any professor, even if he does require attendance.
Coppock is a good lecturer to take this class from even though it is a very large class. He is very excited about the material he is teaching.
