It was a good course. The material wasn't difficult to understand or remember, and professor Groman is very nice. Not sure why this class has such a low rating, it was pretty easy going and enjoyable. There is a lot of group work though, but it's nothing crazy where your grades depend on other people- it's mostly group discussion while filling out some worksheets.

I took this class for the Entrepreneurship Minor and I wouldn't recommend. The truth is it's not super difficult (I got a B+) it's just super boring and there are weekly write ups on the readings for the class that are 30 pages long and never make a lick of sense. Gorman is nice but focuses on how much you talk in class, so if you don't like to participate you're screwed. There are 2 exams which are the easiest part of the class but 3 papers/projects that are the main portion of your grade and are just a hassle to do. Overall, wouldn't recommend this class unless you really have to but ultimately it's not that hard, just frustrating.

The class material is dry and not very engaging. The class readings are focused on theory instead of business. Participation plays a big role in performance. However Prof Gorman is very nice and smart.
