goes over things 5 times. no need book. final is exact quest from last 3 tests
Tests sometimes lack clarity, but just study notes hard
Use notes for all exams and final. Hard questions, but still get a 90.
Great prof. and funny, goes over material 5 times, read WSJ everyday got a 95
he's an okay teacher. boring as anything, lectures approach infinity. get the cribs and you'll be fine, don't buy the book.
A must-have. Knows his stuff will go out of way to explain it so you understand. Always on time. Tests are old cribs. Final is combo of 3 tests. Even gave us the questions that would be on final! Don't buy book, no matter what he tells you. easy 95+
Awesome prof! Funny stories! Easy tests and makes class very interesting!! guns, butter, and ganja :)
It's all about the guns and butter, Okraku says. Take him if you can and get the cribs for the first two of three tests. Just try to stay awake, but it's well worth it to take the class.
Great professor! All of his exam questions are straight from the lecture notes he's given. Wonderful guy!
He's a great teacher! Very easy, take him if you can. His lectures are broing, but the test is based on the lectures. Also, he uses the same test every year, so get the crips for this class.
Sometimes hard to understand, but that's ok, since he repeats every sentence three times, and then writes it on the board. Didn't study for first test and still got only 1 wrong out of 50. Also, NO BOOK required... save some money.
Hard to understand sometimes but repeats everything and writes everything on the board. Hard to fail tests especially with cribs.
Guns, butter, and the pot. Great class! Hilerious, easy, the final didn't have any of the questions he said on it, but it was fun anyway. Someties tough to understand, prepare to fill up a notebook with notes.
Great professor. Connects with the students. He repeats things because he knows there are always a few sitting in class that don't know what he just said. Let me repeat myself one time for those who did not understand. He repeats things because he know
Very Cribable, even cribs from econ 201 worked. Went over each sunject 3-4 times, really only have to go to every other class.
Great Class... very nice to have a teacher who repeats things enough to teach but doesn't overwhelm you with unnecessary homework.
more guns, more butter, and those damn ****s on Dort Highway.... goddamn best teacher at kettering...totally easy, show up once a week and for tests and you will still get a 90
Okraku rocks. Great guy, always cracking me up.
Easy class. can ba a wag booster.
a little on the repetative side. Can get a little boring. But he gives you the answers to the final, will drop the low test score, and offers extra credit at the end. And sometimes you can get a joke. Don't take for the 6-8, get the hour, not as boring.
Boring subject, but he tries to make it interesting with beer, weed, and sex jokes. Use cribs. Get a 95 or better. Good prof.
Funny as hell. Occasionally asks test questions on material that was never covered. Gives alot of extra credit at end of term though. Overall, a pretty good guy.
gert a crib..find a frat guy, if you try and elarn you can but it takes alot of time. Frat guys with cribs always did better
straight out the jungles of africa for ya. Pretty boring class, definately don't need to go. Lets you have crib sheets for tests. If you get less than a 95 your an idiot!
Class was easy. Get a few old Cribs and use them as your crib sheet. CAKE
Funny funny guy. He got stuck with a boring subject but he makes it interesting and funny with all this hilarious jokes. Pretty easy class, kind of repetative though.
Really nice guy, funny! doesn't make attendance a policy for class so that's great..just get notes and find a crib and you're set. Take him for sure.
Very, very nice guy. Loves to tell jokes and stories. Highly recommended. Fun class besides the endless boring note taking.
Funny funny man, go to class just to hear him talk
"Hey Fred! Why don't you go down to Meijer Thrifty Acres and get me a case of beer?!" He's a bit repetative and boring at times, but still very amusing. Just ask him about the student he had who wore a big army jacket.
DO NOT DROP! EVERYONE PASSES W/ OKRAKU! very repetitive - recently changed all cribs, funny guy - boring class tho - Gives LOTS of Xtra credit at the end!
Very funny guy, boring class. Test will slaughter you but his curve makes it almost impossible fail.
Easy class! Text is useless. I used it to kill roaches in my room.
Boring subject, text is useless, Okraku is fun. He gives examples that are interesting, and is very enthusiastic during class. The tests will own you, but the exam is easy enough and theres lots of extra credit.
Very funny, easy scantron tests that are very cribable, book is not needed since all you need is the notes to pass the course, and extra credit is awesome. The only bad thing about him is that you have to buy the scantrons, but other than that, very easy.
What a fun guy. He enjoys what he teaches and teaches it well with fun examples. If you have half a brain you will get a strong A. Do not but the book, you will never need it. Take him and have fun.
Awesome professor. He's pretty easy (at least for this class). Lectures can get boring at times but he will often tell funny jokes to liven up the classroom. Really enjoys teaching the material and wants you to enjoy it to. Okraku is the man!
funniest teacher I've had, very good teacher also
ask him to tell you the one about the parking ticket
The class was a joke...
No Comments
I thought this class was easy? :( Some people said he was cribable when in fact he's not. I learned nothing in this class. The class was dull and although he attempted to make it informative the test scores in class showed otherwise. Drops the lowest exam which is good & do the papers because they'll help you in the end.
Great teacher. very cribable. enjoys what he does and knows alot about economics
Very fun professor that will keep you entertained. Used to be very cribable, but has apparently changed that. Still a great professor who is willing to help you if you need it.
Real funny guy, and a pretty good teacher. Awesome accent.
Knows his stuff, makes some jokes, funny accent. Concepts are usually dry and hard to keep straight. Tried to read the book, but it didn't follow class at all not to mention it made a better sleeping pill than an academic resource.
Hes probably a very good prof but I had a hard time understanding what he was trying to convay because of his accent. 20 years in america and i should be able to understand his english but i probably understood nothing but the attempt to use real world examples.
Good proff but only 2 tests and final are calculated for ur final grade. cribbable. cool accent, make jokes
Professor Okraku really cares about the subject and the students. Tests are easy but he covers a LOT of material and it will ALL be on the tests. Crib sheets are allowed, so try to fit ALL of your notes onto the sheet.
Uses real world examples to tie in ecomonic concepts. Mixes up class a bit with jokes to keep you interested. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
He is a great teacher, who really cares about the subject. So long as you attend and pay attention you will do fine. he covers all of the material thoroughly, and gives ample oppurtunity to succeed.
He was one of the best profs here at Kettering. Explains everything Well. You will learn something when leaving the class. The only thing about him is he repeats things many times.
Kickass prof, one of the best at kettering. Always has a good story and makes his test real easy, I'm pretty sure he still smokes weed too.
Awesome prof. If you don't understand something, he is very helpful. Always go to class, he gives you extra credit sometimes for just being there. Very cribbable. The end of the term paper is easy. He also allows you to write an extra credit paper. I failed all of my tests and ended up with an 82 in his class.
Awesome prof. Got a 98 in the class, didn't study for a single test. Go to class, put some effort into the final, and you'll get an A easy. Good guy too.
Has an accent, not too bad though. Don't sleep, pay attention, otherwise the class is easy
this man is the answer to your econ elective - take him for history of econ thought. midterm, final, and a paper. if you honestly dont get a 92 or above in this...you need to leave kettering...cuz your a waste to society. didnt study for a single exam wrote the paper in 1 hour got a 99 in the class. lot of note taking though...be prepared.
Take this guy for all of your econ classes. Makes class interesting and is always available if you don't understand something. Usually drops a test or two out of the 3-4 he gives. Tests require some studying, but his papers are cake - incredibly easy grader. Put in some effort and you're guaranteed an 'A'.
This is a very good teacher to have and the classes are always funny
The best advanced econ class to take. This class was so easy and he has some interesting stories. We never stayed the whole 2 hours!
Hilarious Professor but your wrist will get sore from taking notes. Easily cribale, study and find a crib and it's an easy 95.
Okraku is one of the best econ teachers out there. This guy knows his stuff - and is really, really funny most of the times. His favorite examples of products to compare are "guns, and butter". Great class. Study for the tests, and the final is basically a bunch of questions off all the tests you took.
Favorite professor so far. Makes class really interesting and you learn a lot by just listening to his lectures. ATTEND CLASS! He will like you if you show up and it's worth your while. Very easy to do well in this class.
He does not puke his own political ideology over everything. You can't tell what his leanings are after the class. A refreshing breath after having the other Marxists in the LA dept.
He's just a guy you have to love. He cares so much about his students and is extremely enthusiastic about his teaching.You'd be hard pressed to find a teacher that loves teaching as much as he does.
Great teacher and really passionate. Hard to read his writing but ask and he'll say it again and isn't offended by it. Hilarious and keeps your attention most of the term, even if you already know economics from high school. Study 3+ cribs for each test and you'll have almost all the questions. Can't wait to have him again!
Very good teacher, seems like he has his curriculum down to a science and his tests really fit his lectures. Some test questions have confusing verbiage but they are still easy to ace
Really cool guy. He's easy and he cares about you.
A great professor. He cares so much about his students. If you show him you care, he will help you until you understand no matter how long it takes. He is the most enthusiastic professor you will ever find.
Wonderful man, wonderful class. Guns and butter baby guns and butter.
He reads from a script.
Hard to understand at first. Tries to be funny and sometimes succeeds. Puts too many ambiguously worded multiple choice questions per test. If you have cribs, great! Knows his stuff but seems as if he's bored with the topic- has been teaching the same class for years. Excellent human-being and learns your name very quickly in a 50+ student class.
You spend the entire class coping down what he writes on the board and then trying to fit all the notes on a sheet of paper that you can use on the tests
