Anyone who took Haanwinckel 101 to Bigio Luks 102 back-to-back probably has not recovered. Do not take.

I understood nothing, had to leave half the exams blank, and got an A. Take that as you will.

This class is not the best, but not the worst. Especially, given that he gave a fat curve for the exams. Firstly, his lectures are hard to follow. He reads off his slides and skips the majority if not all the formulas which become very confusing (if you do not read the textbook). The first part of the course right before midterm exams was challenging. It was hard to follow and confusing. However, following the syllabus and attempting to grasp a bigger picture of what story he was trying to get across it helped somewhat. Do attend discussions, even if it makes you feel even more horrible about the class in the end it will pay off and be worth it. I took advantage of having access to all TAs files and materials, navigating through and deciding which one cliques with my studying method. He provides practice midterms DO solve them as many times as you can cause his real exams are fair. I personally did not enjoy this class it was a lot of pressure, worries, and nights of studying a lot with tears lmao which was worth it in the end. Best of luck.

This was the worst Econ professor I have had thus far. The majority of the class stopped attending lectures because they were useless and he was horrible at explaining things. The TA's helped, but the midterm was extremely difficult (but was curved up) and the final was also pretty difficult but less excruciating than the midterm. Take this class with literally any other professor.
