amazing amazing amazing - so much energy, loves people who take a sincere interest in her class (not just girls), incredibly smart

Took the class in '03. It was great, so was she. Then again I am about to start Law School. A+++++++. Tough exams if you're not careful.

awesome teacher

Most amazing teacher I have ever encountered at Emory. She is the reason I'm in law school.

Professor Burdette is phenomenal - top 2 professors I had at Emory. period. She has this amazing way of making a class exciting (she sings and makes up funny things) when it could otherwise be bland. Her tests are insanely hard, but they really make you apply what you learned which is helpful. She's just absolutely phenomenal.

burdette was the best professor i had at emory. you will not find someone more excited about the material than she. pay attention and write down everything she says. go to office hours with any questions and you can get an A. you just have to put in the time!

Absolutely love her. Tons of personality, really made class interesting. Go to class and pay attention to the examples. If you go to her and show her that you're really trying, she'll definitely help you out.

Burdette makes every class engaging and interesting, even when we're learning the incredibly dry topics. She'll sing, dance, make you laugh... as long as she knows it'll help you learn the topic. I have to scribble as fast as I can to take notes on everything she says, but its so worth it. Everyone needs to take her class.

She's awesome. Very challenging but she got me and many others interested in law school.

She takes business law, the most boring subject you could imagine, and makes it awesome. She teaches her class by telling crazy funny stories. Shes also one of the most helpful people I've ever met, and she doesn't hold it against you if you just don't have the law mind set as long as you work hard

Super enthusiastic, very helpful, and wicked smart. By far my best teacher ever!

Definitely one of my favorite teachers. Cares about her students. Manages to make a seemingly boring subject actually incredibly interesting. The only teacher who has ever kept my attention for every minute of class every single day. Having said that, you have to keep up with the material (readings, podcasts, etc) to do well on the exams.

Amazing professor. She makes business law engaging and fun. Kept me awake for 3 hour long lectures!

So cool!!!

Burdette is my favorite professor I've had at Emory. B-Law is a demanding course, but she is an absolutely incredible lecturer. She really cares about her students and is passionate about law!

She is a great person and professor. Her classes are never boring. She explains difficult concept with lots of examples which makes them a lot more understandable. I also like her because she raises our awareness on the problems and issues of this country's law and justice system. Be sure to listen to podcasts and listen in class.

Best professor at Goizueta. Oh wait, most loved business law professor in the USA. Don't believe me? Search "Allison Burdette Bloomberg". They wrote on article on her being the favorite business professor at Emory...

Best professor ever had at Emory. Unbelievable amount of energy and ready to help student! tests are insanely hard and long.

Professor Burdette is one of the best professors you could have at Emory. Her class is hard but definitely learned a lot. She could explain hard and boring business law content in a very easily understood way. Those concepts will be in your brain years after graduation. PS. She is HILARIOUS!

Best professor in Business School. She is able to make dry material super interesting. She'll sing and dance and tell hilarious examples in order for us to get the material. Exams are tough, but as long as you go to lectures, listen to podcasts, you're good!

Burdette is a gem! There's a reason she's the most beloved prof at the b school. Super zany and energetic. Could not be more caring. She makes the material about as interesting as it can be. I would recommend getting to know her and going to office hours. She'll help you do well and probably even make you want to go to law school.

Burdette is one of the best professors I've ever had. Her lectures are incredibly engaging and she always has the funniest stories to help you understand the material. She's amazing to talk to during office hours and if you participate she will love you. You must do the podcasts she assigns though or you won't pass the tests

Best B school professor. She actually cares if you learn the material and will help if you dont understand (very committed to helping). Lectures are fast moving, but never boring. She keeps you engaged with the material and in class. Exams are long, but doable if you actually follow her study tips. Shes not exaggerating, do not wait to study.

One of the best professors in the business school. Will make you want to go to law school!

Professor Burdette makes you work to understand the law, but if you put the hours in it is an extremely fulfilling class. She finds a way to make even the most dry material interesting and gives legal tips on how to not get scammed in our career/life. One of the most eye opening courses in BBA program.

really caring and enthusiastic. get ready to study and read more than you have in any class yet. crams a lot of material in to the semester, but if you stay on track of things and keep up, you should be fine. i suggest reading through the tutorials, voiceover PPTs, podcasts, and study guides to prepare for exams. long tests. make sure to do the ECs

Burdette is amazing! She's funny and really cares for her students.

Prof. Burdette really loves law and you can tell how passionate she is when she teaches it. Her lectures are so straightforward and amazing, you definitely have to put in the work and actually understand the materials! Definitely take her, she's funny!

She's awesome and caring! I really don't get the negative comments. Class has a lot of materials covered so get ready to be challenged.

Hardest required course at bschool. Get ready to be grilled and screwed because LAW IS A HARD SUBJECT. You will learn a lot if you put in your effort though.

The professor makes or breaks a class, Burdette makes B-Law fun, her energy is infectious. I love the class. I love Burdette. John Moon and team may have t-shirts, but I will have a picture of Burdette in my house. Is this the beginning of the Burdette Cult? Maybe.

Someone will go after my family for this...but I like Professor Burdette. The first week or two was almost a nightmare, but then you come to the slow realization that she does actually care. Yes, her teaching style and high-caffeine personality aren't for everyone, but she tries. Her canvas page is an absolute mess though, needs to fix that.

I will qualify this review by saying Burdette is like marmite - you're either gonna love her style or hate it. She's very passionate, very high energy - and so what if she's a bit kooky, she knows her stuff. This course is gonna be difficult if you're not someone into law or who has a knack for analytical writing. I wish I could take this again.

HER CLASS & SHE CHANGED MY LIFE! She is truly one of the most incredible people I have ever met, and I am convinced she is pure genius. It was so enlightening and fulfilling to learn what she taught us in BLAW, and I would take BLAW pt 2 if that was an option. Of course, the homework and tests were so much but this is real life stuff people!!

Burdette is one of my favorite professors in the business school. She is genuinely passionate about the subject and caring towards her students. Do you work and go to class just to enjoy her lectures - she will give you SO MANY practical life advice! She makes an effort to know everyone. Her personality may be very bold but is honestly so sweet.

I enjoyed Burdette's passion and high energy (you may not like it though). Gives a TON of extra credit for her long and difficult 4-5 hour exams (avg usually 80s after EC). The canvas page is very messy and I spent hours grinding for exams (and less time than most people too). Curve is very helpful, and recommend taking it before senior year.

What a woman!! Burdette is truly one of a kind. I laugh so much during her lectures and I appreciate how authentic she is. If you pay attention in class and make sure to understand the tutorials, the exams shouldn't be that bad, they're just long. Queen Burdette.

You either love her or hate her and there's really no in-between. She does genuinely care about her students and wants everyone to do well, which is nice. The biggest issue with this class is there's too much content covered. Exams are obnoxious: four hours on the weekend. If you cram a few nights before, expect to get around the average (C+).

Yes, the exams are crazy long. But Burdette is great and makes class really entertaining/funny. Some people will hate Blaw, but others will like it better than expected. Personally, I liked this class more than managerial or corp fin. Pay attention in class, start studying early, and you'll do okay. Burdette is b school a legend

Here's the deal with Blaw- you've just gotta embrace the suck. A week before the exam, dedicate 3 hours every night and just got through the modules powerpoint-by-powerpoint. That's it. Just show up to class and enjoy Burdette's lectures, and teach yourself the stuff at home. Burdette is hilarious and cares about each student. A+ class.

BLAW was the hardest class I ever took at the b school. Burdette is a fantastic, funny and charismatic professor but the class will consume a big chunk of your semester. To do well on her tests focus on her quizzes and PPT slides and then apply those concepts to the real world. She is all about application > memorization.

I literally took the class online during the summer while working a job and ended up fine. She cares about you knowing the why and how of the concepts, and short answers req clear, short, and concise sentences. If you use chatgpt to help you understand cases and give examples of diff vocab/topics, then it's much easier to understand the mc on tests

Class set up is kind of insane with 4 hour exams on the weekends that make up 75% of your grade. Just grind the week of the exam and you'll do fine. Law is not my strong suit and I did alright. Knows her stuff really well tho and makes class entertaining. You'll find she actually does care about y'all if you just took the time to get to know her.

Prof. Burdette is absolutely amazing. Her class was difficult, but it gives you a taste of what law school is like. She inspired me to consider law school and has inspired others in the past. It might be a difficult course for some, if this kind of info doesn't come naturally to you, but I actually found it not too bad. Highly recommend!

Exams are really hard, but the course materials are interesting. Would take again if not for credit.

BLAW itself is not difficult, but the workload is what makes it challenging. Compared to compsci or econ majors, I still think we have it easy. This class is doable, and its reputation for being difficult is overblown slightly

I think a lot of the other ratings are somewhat lying. Yes the class is hard, but she's a good teacher and she does care about her students. She's made the class very fun to be in considering it's BLaw and I am happy she is the teacher for this class. I probably won't even get an A or A- in this class either.

Burdette was a very polarizing teacher but i loved her. it was one of the few bschool classes i truly enjoyed taking and the material was very engaging. wish i had her for more classes.

She's actually so funny and engaging I was happy to come to class all the time. Was pretty confused every time I didn't do the pre class readings or quizzes because she doesn't go over it in easy terms. But it's all available to you so just listen to the podcasts she makes over and over. Her voice will 100% haunt my brain forever but she's awesome
