To say that his class is a waste of time is completely unfair. You will learn plenty in his class, but it is still easy. It is good if you like doing case studies- you will learn how to interpret law- whether you are a business major or law major- he is good to fulfill your major requirement.

Hes a great teacher, nice guy, very funny. Tests are all multiple choice, grade consists on tests, participation (DO YOUR CASE BRIEFS!), and attendance (Only can miss 5 days) And theres no final exam.

By far one of THE best professors I've had so far. He really cares about his students doing well. It's not an easy A, by any means. However, work hard and you'll do well. He offers extra credit that actually helps build your understanding of the material. Tests are hard, but study and you'll be fine. We need more professors like him at COD.

BEST PROFESSOR I'VE TAKEN! He cares about the students and want you to succeed. A LOT of extra credit opportunities. Test questions are straight out of the book and what was talked about in class. u just discuss court cases for most of class but he picks fun ones! Practice quiz Qs on BB are on tests. He's truly an amazing teacher and class is fun!

This was the first Business Law course I took and am so happy I took it from this professor. He was very straightforward with assignments and also posted short weekly videos explaining topics and what is to be completed for the following date. He also sends out reminders which was helpful! Assignments were easy to understand. Take this professor!

If you're looking for an easy A, take professor Carmody. He cares about his students and is always fast with responding to emails. All his quizzes and tests are straight forward and easy. 3 homework cases which are also easy and 1 discussion board which I highly suggest you do it because it's 100 points but it's very easy as well. Take him!!

Prof. Carmody is an amazing professor and replies back quickly and is very helpful. The class structure is very clear and his assignments are very interesting. This class has by far been one of my favorites that I have taken at COD.

What a great guy Prof Carmody is. Took his 8-week 2205 class and he is extremely organized during his online class. There was no virtual meetings but he posted videos every once an a while to update the class, and you can tell he really cares. He was clear with expectations. Wish I could meet him and listen to a lecture! Ugh, COVID. 10/10 guy.

Took an 8-week classes anticipating a heavy workload but was pleasantly surprised. Some exam questions can be a little tough but are open book and not bad as long as you read the textbook content. Gave a couple opportunities for extra credit too.

He outlines the course for you in 4 units throughout the 16 week semester. it was a fairly easy schedule to follow and the assignments were not hard at all. He also offers extra credit several times in the class.

Be ready to read! Great grader, gives reasonable comments and explanations. BE PREPARED FOR THE QUIZZES AND EXAMS!!! I STRUGGLED a ton with the quizzes and exams. With that, it brought me down to a C+ even with all the extra credits! SO BE PREPARED!!! I'd probably retake him, but I would retake him with actual meeting time classes.

I took this class as part as my biz law requirement for my accounting degree. The class was very easy as a whole. As long as you put in the work and do what he tells you to do, you will succeed and get an A. He's an extremely easy grader too. Highly recommend!

If I could take Professor Carmody again, I would! The due dates are given clearly, with plenty of time for each assignment. None of the homework or quizzes are difficult, but they help you learn the subject. A very nice guy, and made the class so easy to understand and enjoy. Highly recommend!
