Great class if economics interests you. Very difficult material, but I feel like I learned a lot. His tests are difficult, but about an 80% is an A w/the curve. I sat in the 2nd row, participated, and studied and got an A. He's a very smart man, explains things well but goes very fast. SPEND TIME ON THE ONLINE HW AND DO ALL THE EXTRA CREDIT!

I definitely recommend Prof. Neveu for Macro. There are weekly online homework assignments which are not extremely difficult and are 35% of your total grade. The tests are based on the online HW. Extra credit blogs are EASY. If you put in an effort, you can get an A

great professor and very relevant lectures. if you do the homework and understand it you'll do fine in the class. if you go to class you don't need the book. recommended above the other macro professors without a doubt.

took Neveu for an upper level Econ class, he is a GOOD teacher. He treats students with respect and is laid back.

Professor Neveu is an intelligent man who makes you think constantly. He definitely knows his econ. Blogs are pretty fun. If you do the Aplia homework assignments online and work hard, you should be fine. Make sure you study for tests/quizzes! Definitely take this class if you're willing to put in the time and effort, it's worthwhile =)

Neveu is really laid back and very knowledgeable. I loved his class even though it was right before lunch and I was always starving. Seemed a little disorganized at the beginning of the year but you catch on to his style after awhile. Solid professor.

Neveu is really good. He's funny and knows that no one actually likes macro, so he jokes around a lot. He does everything possible to get you ready for tests and they're exactly what he tells you. curves everything, blogs are boring but they get you extra credit

He's a great professor and knows what he's talking about. He knows that no one likes macro so he tries to make the class as entertaining as possible. He doesn't always get his point across, but he's still an awesome professor to have. One of my favorites at JMU so far.

Neveu is a great professor. I didn't know a THING about econ before this and it's not hard at all. he's so understanding, and answers all questions. 2 midterms, he CURVES like crazy!! the homework helps. one of my favorite professors at JMU.TAKE HIM!!!!

Neveu is an awesome professor - crystal clear and gives funny examples that break up some of the monotony of macro. I'm actually really interested in econ now, just because of him! Recommended!

Neveu's pretty good. As an elementary ed major, I'm not "econ-minded," so I struggled with the concepts. He's a good teacher though, and if you go to class and do the homework, a B is doable. 2 tests, 2 blogs, weekly homework, and a final

Everything in the class is hard, but he grades on a relative scale. As long as most of your classmates do worse than you, you'll get a good grade. Don't necesarrily like this grading system. His lectures are usually very understandable but they are fast paced. Tests are hard, but again you'll probably get a better grade on them than you think

I was dreading Macro before starting class. But Neveu is literally one of the best teachers I have ever had. He relates all the material to something funny and it keeps your attention. The class is tough but he CURVES A TON. IF you put the effort in, you can get at least a B. If you have the chance, definitely take him.

Definitely a hard class, but he is one of the best teachers. Macro sucks in general but he makes it interesting and relates it to college in weird ways. Take this class if you are willing to work hard. Tests are very tricky but he curves a lot. Cool guy, good class.

Hes a really nice guy and offers a ton of help out of class. He makes a bunch of videos on his lectures to clarify anything and will even skype you if you have trouble. His lectures are clear, but he moves quick. 2 tests & a final as well as 10 online quizzes (2 dropped). He grades based on the class average. So only 50% of the class gets an A or B

Hard class but neveu is the BEST professor you can get. grades on a curve. He helps you out soo much and really tries to help everyone learn. cannot stress enough how great a teacher he is.

My first economics class ever, but I am so happy I took Professor Neveu. He is one of the best professors I've ever had. He grades everything on a very heavy curve, so if you put effort into the class you will succeed. There are weekly quizzes and three exams. The best way to do well on the tests is to work hard on the quizzes. Neveu is awesome!!!!

Such a hard class if you don't have the mind for economics. Neveu makes an effort to explain concepts in an easy way. He goes quickly through material. You have to reteach yourself material because it can be hard. This class requires a lot of work. READ THE BOOK. Tests are tricky- have multiple choice & short answer. Look at quizzes before test

He is a great teacher, you should take his class. It can be hard for some but put in the time and effort especially on the MyStatLab quizzes and you will be fine. Use those quizzes to help you study. He curves the entire class so your grade solely depends on how classmates do.

economics is general is hard to understand and put your self in the mindset of being and economist, but neveu does good at getting you in that mindset. quizzes are a pain in the ass and some question are hard(graphing ones). tests are the quizzes basically but the short answer(2of them) are the things that involve calculations. study/listen easy B+

Dr. Neveu is great. He's funny and is usually able to break down very difficult concepts to the point where anyone can understand. Gives a lot of outside help with his website and will even Skype you. That said, he really likes to challenge students. Don't expect an easy class (although he does use a relative grading curve where a C is average).

Highly recommended. This class is dense and hard but he is really good at explaining tough concepts clearly, and very straight up with his expectations. He's a fast grader, too.

This is a hard and boring course but he knows that and does whatever he can to help his students succeed. The class is also on a huge curve, which helps SO much. I would recommend him to anyone!

It's a tough subject, but he does all he can to help you out if you ask for it. If you plan on taking any more Econ, then take his class because he helps you understand it much better and makes it as interesting as he possibly can.

Prof. Neveu is a great teacher however he runs his class way differently then I am use to. His tests are pretty hard and you need to study a lot. Neveu is a great guy and he is super cool but his class is really hard.

Honestly my favorite professor so far at JMU. A decent amount of work, but as long as you read the chapters when you're supposed to you shouldn't have to study for the tests, which aren't that difficult. Very interesting and not hard to pay attention to in class.

Neveu is one of the best professors at JMU. The LearnSmart homework was time consuming but very helpful in the end. Grading scale is very different but worked well for the class. Just a couple tests, not hard if you actually study.

Neveu is the man and is a good teacher. His classic line is "do you understand what I'm trying to say?" The class can be a bit tough but its not that bad.

Professor Neveu is a really good guy who really cares about students and wants to see them learn. He is very smart, sometimes I thought to smart to be teaching this class, but overall I really enjoyed him and the class. There will be a lot of homework though. He ranks everyone in the class and that is how he assigns grades which is a little unusual

Neveu is a great professor, I just didn't work as hard in his class. GECON 200 isn't a fun course either way, but Neveu is definitely the right teacher to take for this course. Textbook was WAY too expensive. Weird grading scale, good amount of homework, need to study and listen in class! My class's average on the final was a D! -_-

He has an awesome sense of humor, and he really centers his lectures around what he thinks is relevant to his students. The class is difficult, but you'll get at least a B if you read the text book, take good notes, and come to class. He really wants his students to get good grades, hence the massive curves on our exams. Take his class!

I definitely would recommend Neveu to anyone who's planning to major in economics or business. Very chill, good sense of humor. Economics in general is hard but he does a good job explaining the material in class. Plus, you can find all of his lecture notes online. Go to his office hours and do the homework and you'll do fine.

Neveu is definitely really knowledgable in the field and he knows it's boring for us, so he understands some. This class isn't really fun no matter what, but I recommend taking it with him. He can be hilarious as well. Midterms are pretty difficult - I found it hard to finish in 50 minutes - but some people do just fine. Grading scale is cool.

Easily the best professor that I had in my first semester at JMU. I'm probably switching my major to econ just because of his intro to macro course. He loves his subject and does everything possible to try to get his students to succeed. The best way to sum him up is that he takes the time to create very helpful video lectures onlinejustforstudents

Neveu is THE MAN. Would take this class again 100 more times. The class kicks your butt but it is econ so you can not expect to glide through with an A. TAKE HIM FOR ECON!!!!! You get so much out of the class.

He is very passionate about economics. Read the chapter before his lecture or else you will be lost. Study for the 3 midterms and do all 10 assignments on time! There's a lot of work. But he grades everything on curves. Do not miss class!!

This class is an awesome class to take if your at all interested in where our countries money comes and goes from. He is a tough teacher but will help you if you want to do well. Grading scale is pretty cool but definitely a tough class. He knows so much about the topic and you will learn so much. Would take him again in a second! -finance major

I loved going to this class. Macro isn't easy, but Neveu makes it easy as he can. He doesn't care if you know formulas and definitions so much, but wants you to understand concepts. Lots of online assignments and 3 midterms. Grades according to how well other students in class are doing. Great professor and hilarious guy. Take him for Macro!

Great teacher. Interacts well and makes content enjoyable. Makes some jokes and try's to connect with students. All work is on CONNECT and it is not to challenging. I had 3 "mid-terms" and a final, and all tests were HIGH CURVED. I got about a 70 on the final but the curve made it an A. Finished with a 76% but curved to a B+

Macro itself is just a hard class. He is extremely sarcastic, but gives lots of real-world examples to relate everything back to and tries to give you as many points as possible on exams. Curves grades based on the average of the class, so a C could actually be a B. Lots of online assignments.

Curves assignments and tests based on class rank, really helpful during office hours, assignments are online and he takes the best out of 3 attempts but you can't see what you did wrong. Honestly a really interesting class (for someone who hates finance), it's challenging but if you work for it an A is more than possible.

Professor Neveu is probably the best Macro professor here at JMU. His class is hard, but you will be able to walk out feeling like you actually learned something. His tests are not as hard as you think they will be but they are still hard. His homework is hard but he does offer extra credit.

Prof. Neveu is the absolute best. He truly cares for his students. Econ is an extremely hard subject and he tries to make it as easy as he can. 3 tests(including final), no quizzes, and a decent amount of homework. The way he grades is great, and saves your GPA. He has never turned anyone away that needs help. 100% recommend. Wish he taught Econ201

Great teacher. Very fair and I really liked the way he did rankings. The way I saw it was that you have to do a more than just read the book and do the homework. You had to understand the material the way he taught it (which is very efficient and applicable). His online lectures and problem help videos were extremely effective for the final.

I really loved Prof. Neveu. He was really invested in teaching economics that would apply directly to life. He normally talks down to you but dont be afraid to approach him if you have a question. He expects you to be stupid, so ask him a stupid question if you think it will help you understand. Grades on a curve for everything!

Macro is a hard class in general. You have to put in the work, but Neveu is very very helpful. If you ask him for help he will go out of his way to help you so that is a plus. Study study study!!

BEST PROFESSOR TAKEN AT JMU. Heads up- I'm an economics major so I absolutely LOVED this class. Was so willing to work for the A. Great guy- typical arrogant undisciplined students will fail

He is so dedicated! He provides so many online resources for help outside of class and is willing and helpful during office hours. He is efficient in class and is engaged with his students. He's my favorite professor! The material isn't the easiest but he is SO helpful! You have to work in the class but he makes it painless.

TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!! Read the material before the lectures and ask him questions to get the most out of him. He's my favorite professor so far. If you don't understand the material his lectures are fast-paced, but if you have a basic understanding of the topics already they're an appropriate speed. Tons of online resources. He's the best

TAKE HIM!!! macro is a tough class, and I definitely do not learn econ easily, but he curves grades heavily, so my final grade C turned into a B. If you do well on the online assignments and do the extra credit, it's not too bad. I got a range of C's on all the tests and ended up with a B in the class.

There are only two tests besides the final, and the tests are pretty tough. He's a tough grader but gives you plenty of opportunities to bring your grade up. He's very helpful and really wants you to succeed. There are a lot of online assignments that are pretty time consuming but really help bring up your grade if you do well on them.

Macro is difficult, but he is AMAZING. He genuinely cares about you and wants you to know this stuff and succeed. His exams are difficult, but he gives you a ton of study resources like video lectures and practice problems. One of the best professors I've had at JMU.

He is an awesome professor who really cares about the material and believes it will make you better. He frequently ties current events into the lesson plans to help keep it interesting. Also he curves ALOT could not recommend him enough take him.

Dr. Neveu made ECON very interesting. I would suggest that if you're taking his class to read the textbook pages before actually going to class so you don't seem lost. Most of his assignments are fairly easy, attendance is a must in order to pass, and it is very heavily lecture based but if you keep up with the reading then it should be a easy!

Prof. Nevue is a really good teacher as long as you do the work. The class is difficult and grading can be hard to understand but if you come to class prepared with the reading done you should be good to go. He is really willing to work with you and helps you to understand the material because it can be tricky.

Very difficult if you do not keep up with the assignments and put in a lot of work outside of class. He is very helpful if you reach out to him, but he does not baby anything. Though the grading can seem harsh, he curves everything based on the average. Good class if you actually care about learning econ. Dont take him if you have no interest.

Neveu is an awesome professor. He will always respond to your emails within 24 hours and if you go see him he's very good at helping you work through problems. There is a lot of work for the class, but if you do it all its really not that difficult. His grading curve is super complicated, but it will save your life can't recommend him enough.

Neveu flat out knows his stuff. He cares about his students and wants them to learn. He puts a lot of effort into his class, providing lots of aid to his students through canvas. That being said, the class(tests) can be pretty difficult. However, he curves because expects the test grades to be a bit low. Do homework/assignments and you'll be fine.

Very good, really cares about his students and wants them to do well. Sort of challenging material but you don't need to work that hard as long as you do all the assignments and homeworks you are pretty much set on the tests usually the questions on the tests are straight from those problems.

I worried about not getting a good grade because I'm not a business major and have no prior Econ knowledge, but I put in the work and came out with an A in the class! If you'll go to class, pay attention, and do all the HW, you'll be fine. He's a great professor, also taught a lot of practical things about whats going on in the world in economics!

Professor Neveu was awesome! It was clear that he wanted his students to learn and provided so many resources! Whenever I had questions via email, he answered quickly and his responses were detailed. To be successful in the class, watch online lectures and don't bother with the textbook. Test questions pulled from online assignments. Take him!!!

I literally thought I was gonna fail the whole time but I ended with a C, and I'm fine with that!! It's a TON of work and it's hard but his curve helps you out. He's a great guy, he understands we suck at econ and don't know anything so that helps too! Lots of math, the second test just literally had math only. If you like math take him lol!

Macro is just a hard class in general, but Id say Prof. Neveu was definitely a good choice for someone who has no ECON background. He explains concepts pretty well and goes over things the class didnt do well on as a whole. The class is competitive however and the material is difficult. If you go to class and do the work, youll pass.

Professor Neveu is a great professor and I highly recommend taking him for Macroeconomics if you go to JMU. His grading technique is unique as compared to his co-workers as he grades you all against each other so you see how you compare to the rest of the students in your section. Two midterms and a final, as well as one exam on canvas. AMAZING!

at first very scary, still very intimidating but he is so smart and definitely knows what he's talking about. He really truly loves teaching and cares about economics and his students. Best professor I've had at JMU. He is always available for help, and will really try to help you if you put in the work and effort to succeed.

Class is graded on a curve. got raw scores of Cs/ B- on the tests which resulted in a strong A. I have to say, having incompetent econ majors in this class made the curve really nice.

Very helpful when you ask questions. Lectures can be a bit tough to follow sometimes but if you ask questions he will go back and answer

Econ is a hard class to begin with... but the way he grades is super helpful and hes overall a nice guy

If you decide to take the special topics of Math for Economists, then I suggest working on your algebra and being well-versed first. It is a great class if you want to see the applications of math in economics and will prepare you for econometrics but it usually goes 2 speeds, fly over your head or cutting off your arm with a spoon.

He is the best choice for macro and is by far my favorite professor! He is so funny and genuinely cares about helping you. Never be afraid to ask questions. The relative grading scheme/curve he uses is super helpful. He also posts videos explaining a lot of things too... take him!

Hard class, great professor. Would definitely take him again. Class is very hard. Get ready to read and study a lot. You really have to work for your grade in this class. He does grade on curves. You cannot and should not skip class, it will only hurt you. Overall, nice and funny guy.

This class can be tough at times, but the professor is really great. I highly recommend going to office hours and getting to know him. He is caring and wants to see students do well.

I would like to preface this by saying I rate all my professors. Neveu is a really good professor, very funny and tries his best to make the material interesting and relevant. Grades on a curve so if everyone does bad it balances out. Overall just a great professor, and I actually enjoyed going to his class. 3 tests, about 2 HW assignments a week.

He is a great professor. He explains things in a way that's super easy to understand, and the way he grades will SICE you (it's on a curve, so if the average is a 65 on a test, that automatically becomes like a B-). Just pay attention in class, take good notes, and do the assigned readings. Not that much work

332 is a hard class. There is a lot of math, and it is tough to learn it over Zoom. With that said, Dr. Neveu puts in a lot of time and effort making sure you are able to learn the material. His lectures are beneficial, not only for participation credit but also for the discussion. This class is difficult but you will learn, would take him again.

Econ332 is definitely a difficult class.I can honestly say that Neveu tried his best to adapt the class to an online format, but to me it failed it some areas. It definitely felt like 3 classes in 1, but if you have the motivation to put in the work for this class you will be fine. I learned a lot this semester so thank you Professor Neveu.

Econ generally sucks. Dr. Neveu gives you a fair amount of busy work but it's all easy grades. Exams are hard. The projects were ok. The weekly schedule was 1 HW quiz from the book that gave you 5 chances, 3-5 videos for participation, 1 somewhat hard quiz that we would review before we took it and you had three tries. Exams suck, however.

The class is based on homework, Quizes, and Recored lectures with questions. All allow multible attemps. There is a participation grade every week for zoom participation. Midterm and final exam is split in two parts Online Timed multible choice, and Takehome free responce. the avg score in the class becomes the C+ to B- line. The cuve is helpful

Prof. Neveu is very caring and considerate of students and is a great professor. The class is very time consuming as there are multiple quizzes and homework throughout the week. I find myself having to go back to lectures and videos often as the class is hard, but he offers extra help to anyone that needs it. Just wish that we could view our grades

One of the few professors that actually cares about his students & wants them to learn the material. If you don't give a care and just get C's on every quiz / assignment and fail the midterms, you can probably still pass with a C. The curves are really something...

Take him for ECON 200. He makes the class about understanding the subject more than just memorizing and taking a test. The weekly assignments are very manageable and the exams are okay as long as you study. He wants you to succeed and will stop at any point for questions.

Prof. Neveu is a great choice. He genuinely cares about his students, and thoroughly explains the material from the homework during lecture. There are two quiz-format at home assignments you do weekly based off the textbook, but it is manageable. You have to pay attention & try. He is the best though. Midterms are hard, but you get a study guide.

I really liked him as a teacher. His class does have a work involved in it but he really cares and wants you to do well. He teaches real world things which will help you in the future. I think he does a great job teaching but it just a lot of material all the time.

Not an easy class, but he is a great teacher for it. He cares about the topics and really cares about students understanding it.

He is overall a great teacher. Going to class will help you a lot more in the course. I would recommend taking real notes from the textbooks. The quizzes are almost impossible if you don't take good notes. There are 3 tests and are very hard if you don't study. On the first day of class he will tell you how you can pass the course. Do all the step

I never got great grades prior to college but the only reason I did well in this class is because I told myself I'd just put in the work. And it paid off. Andre was there every step of the way, funny, caring, and more than willing to answer a bajillion questions. He truly loves his students and is a great professor. Hands down would take him again

Neveu is easily one of the best professors I've ever had and you can tell he really cares about his students succeeding. He gives about two weekly assignments which can take a little bit of time but in the end they help a lot if you actually take the time to sit down and complete them. However I would not take this class as a gened.

Neveu is a really great professor, however ECON200 is a very difficult class. There is a lot of content that you need to know to succeed which can be hard to balance with other classes. The quizzes and flatworld assignments weren't too bad and he does curve which is nice.
