Marc Santugini is a God. Best professor, super nice and caring. He lectures fast but he cares deeply about the material and is always willing to help people out. I loved every lecture!

Boy oh boy, Intermediate Micro, the big 3010, where do I even begin? I'll start off by saying that Santugini is my main man, real salt of the earth kind of guy. He's super enthusiastic when lecturing and from my understanding he is very helpful in his office hours and will respond to emails quickly when you're struggling with homeworks. The breakdown of the course grade is 10% HW (6 problem sets), 25% first midterm, 25% second midterm and 40% final. Also after the second midterm he told us that there would be a dutch knockout which was super clutch. I'm not sure if he was originally planning to do this and just waited until after the second midterm so that people would be trying the whole time, or if he was disappointed with our performance and decided to implement it, but in any event thank god he did. I really struggled with this course and didn't put in the time that you need to in order to do well. I kinda blew off the homeworks and relied on my groupmates to do most of them for me and I didn't study enough for the tests. I ended up doing around the average on the first test, but then I got absolutely destroyed by the second one (seriously I think the TA had to go through two full red pens to grade mine). After freaking out about this but having my shot at redemption thanks to the dutch knockout, naturally I continued to blow off the class (I still went to lectures but I stopped doing the HW entirely.) Then finals week came around and it was time to pay the piper. I was so overwhelmed by all of the material I had to learn in a few days and I spent sleepless night after sleepless night playing on my phone in clem. "What if I fail this test that accounts for 100% of my grade? Will I have to drop out and become a Clock Winder as my father once was, and his father before him?" I thought to myself. At last, it was test day. Ruler and number 2 pencil in hand, I was as ready as I was ever going to be. After three hours that felt no longer than three hours, it was finally, mercifully over. The next week I spent pacing in my room back and forth, wondering how I did. Then the fateful email came. I gulped as I read the subject line "Final Exams Graded." My heart was pounding, my palms were sweating, my knees were weak. I clicked the gradebook on Collab and there it was: a big old A smack dab in the middle of the screen. By some act of god I had gotten the A. Seriously, how the hell did that happen? I'm still in utter disbelief but I'll take it. The moral of the story is that Santugini is a really good lecturer. Go to class, copy down everything he writes on the board, study your notes and past exams and somehow ace the final. Best of luck out there.

Great class! He writes down literally everything he says on the board. If you know the lecture notes well, then there won't be any surprises on the tests. Extremely approachable during office hours. The HW's tend to have tedious algebra, but again if you understand them the tests are VERY manageable.

Great Professor!

Wonderful professor. Do what he tells you to and you're fine. Super helpful if you go talk to him.

Santugini is one of the nicest and most caring profs but his class was pretty intense. he jumped right into it on the first day with no review and will move with lightning speed through the subject. he covers quite a lot and will have your head spinning at times but he's always available to help students. be prepared for advanced calc, this class is math-heavy and will feel more like a calc class than econ course. very challenging material and the HW will literally take you hours to even attempt. good luck!
