just take the online practice tests and you will do fine.

great teacher...makes learning fun and rewarding

the material was very hard, but Mr. sicotte tried hard to make it better. He's a good teacher, but the work is damn hard.

The class was hard, he was funny, which doesn't really mean anything.

he's great, funny and intelligent

Great guy, funny and intelligent...can ramble a bit...do not miss any classes you will be behind. HAHA looks like ross but talks like the dry eyes guy!!

awesome

He is a good teacher but the tests are really hard and he does not grade on a curve. Be prepred to do a lot of studying. He does you give you the actual questions on his test though but not the answer options.

one of the best teachers I've had. He's not there to nurse you or be your best friend. He expects you to study and ask questions. I learned more from him then I ever imagined I could.

funny, very into his students, always available

Great teacher! He is the nicest teacher you will ever meet. He really loves his job and is always willing to help. His tests are kind of difficult, but he is wants to help you get the best grade possible. He always tries to understand his students better.

he is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy

I thought that he was super nice and very helpful. I thought that he made it pretty interesting and thought that overall he is an awesome teacher.

hard but very fun

New website for homework is pretty hard. His tests are very confusing and you really have to study and ask questions whenever you dont get something. Hes always willing to help you. Hes very nice and VERY sexxay!!

good teacher, if you think he's confusing, your'e not paying enough attention

Very clear and very helpful. Very easy to write clear notes during his lectures. I would not hesitate to take him for another class.

I didnt realize how good of an economics teacher Mr. Sicotte was until I had ECO 111 with Bill Andersen. Very nice guy and knows the subject well.

Something that needs to be mentioned here is that his ECO 110/111 uses an online resource called Aplia - if you do not have easy internet access, you cannot do the online homework and lose out on up to 20% of your grade. Easy class, considering it's just easy tests and homework, nothing else.

Reccomend his classes if you are majoring in economics and prepare for a lot of studying. His classes tend to be hard, but he is helpful if you ask for it. He expects a high degree of excellence, thus his objective multiple choice tests are difficult. He also usually requires a online program called Aplia. This clase is not for newbs, lol

Great teacher, difficult subject but tries to help you out as best as he can. So long as you do the homework and read the book he will make sure you do ok. I think hes great!

I found he was confussing until I started reading the book, if you read he makes sence b/c he is explaining the book, which is where the test comes from!! He is always willing to help! I thought he was great and he curved so we would pass, Youngbloood doesn't.I took both and would recommend Sicotte,he grades better and they are both hard.

At first glance the class is boring, but he really cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Really nice guy. Read the textbook if you are having any trouble at all. Actually, it's kinda good to read it anyway lol.

Sicotte isn't as energetic as Youngblood, but he's still a great guy who knows his stuff and communicates it well. He's very approachable and pleasant. His Micro class isn't particularly easy, but neither is it difficult. I had only ever taken one other Econ course before, so even an intro class like this was very informative for me. Recommended!

Excellent teacher. Teaches mostly through lecture with some in-class discussion. Minimal homework. Easy tests with study guides provided. Very pleasant person.

Really nice, down to earth guy, but there truly is no benefit to going to class if you can learn from the book. Lectures are dry and based on Power Points. It is indeed a difficult class but if you stay on top of things you'll be fine. Grades on a curve, drops your 2 lowest HW scores and adds an additional 10% to the HW grade. I would reccomed him.

If you have to take a social science, this is the class to take. As long as you are okay in algebra. Any person who has taken past algebra two, you will love this class. He teaches off of the power point and curves everything. Easier than any sociology or psychology class as long as you can do some math. Wish I had taken Micro before transfering.

he's an excellent professor. the material is a little boring and sometimes difficult but he does his best with it. i went to class and did the assignments and never read the book and got an a.

he does a very good job at trying to keep things interesting he makes references to the really work the only down side is his classes have a lot of people in them so if warm/hot classrooms put u to sleep bring caffine

Professor Sicotte is a great professor. The class is difficult, but if you read the book and study it should be a pretty easy A.

Prof. Sicotte knows his material and does a good job explaining it, the subject itself is not all that interesting but the information can be helpful, just breif the chapter before class he uses mainly powerpoint, and online homework.

It is not an easy class, but Prof. Sicotte is a nice guy and will help if you ask questions. Just read over the book, do the homework assignments, and go to class (even though it isn't required). He does his homework assignments on aplia. He gives about an assignment per week, which isn't bad at all. And he does his lectures with a power point.

Great guy. Very flexible teacher. Very helpful. Deffinately reccomend!

Great teacher, not boring at all. Explains concepts and expectations he has for the class. Plus he has a amazing grading curve.

Great guy. He has a deep passion for Economics. If you enjoy Econ, this is a guy you can learn a lot from. Always willing to stay after and work with you. He recommended several outstanding blogs and podcasts that are gems for any student interested in Econ.

My second round with Sicotte, and at least I came out of it sucessfully. I think i prefer a type of lecture where the material is more explictly explained. He likes to use many of his own examples in a general way. For some chapters you can do that. ALso I prefer more tests then just 3

I actually did enjoy this class, especially since it was largely about buyer habits which made it actually relatable. Dr. Sicotte does so much to make his class easy to pass, such as an insanely curved grading scale (an 85% is an A). Attendance isn't mandatory, but read the lecutre slides if you miss class. Just study his notes and you'll be fine!

Amazing professor. Not an easy class, but you learn a lot in it. He is a really nice guy, and really loves Economics. I wish I had more professors like him. The tests are pretty difficult, you have no study guide. Just read the chapters is all you can do. If study hard, you will do fine!

Great teacher, nice guy, knows his stuff. Took him for summer session one. You can easily pass the class if you do all the online homework and quizzes. It is the tests that are a little more difficult, however he allows one sheet of notes front and back.

I really enjoyed Prof Sicotte's class. I had him for Macro Economics and I plan to take Micro Economics with him. In his class you have chapter Learning Curve assignments as well as chapter quizes all done online! Test can be tough but he lets you use a full sheet front and back on the test. He can seem boring at times but he knows his stuff!

He knows his stuff! He likes student asking him question, just ask! He definitely will help you out. You will need to register for LanuchPad, doing LearningCurve and Graded Homework(quiz), you'll get 2 attempt to take the quiz. Pay attention and organise your cheat sheet will help a lot!

He LOVES economics, but I would suggest taking his class later in the day and not in the early morning. He wants students to interact with him and participate to be involved in discussion. His tests are somewhat hard if you do not study, but you will be fine if you just look over the chapters and homework. Sicotte knows what he is teaching.

Great teacher. Loves it when students involve themselves in discussion (I found this to be the best time to insert real world issues to in class discussion). Loves Economics and is really good at what he does and knows what he's talking about. I took him for both Macro and Micro. Go to class and you'll be fine.

I had him for ECO 110 and 111. He's good at explaining everything and will help you if you need it. He makes the subject matter easier to understand. The homework isn't too bad and the tests are a bit hard so study!

Mr Sicotte is a steady, even instructor who clearly tests on the material he teaches. He's available when he says he is, and offers his opinions as just opinions. He doesn't propagandize, and teaches the Mises and Keynesian models equally. Really enjoyed his class.

Professor Sicotte is a great professor and really does want you to succeed in the class. If you have questions or problems, ASK! He's patient and willing to help. It's not the easiest course, but you learn a lot. I took both Macro and Micro and really enjoyed it and would recommend.

This IS THE MAN. HE IS THE ECONOMICS MACHINE. The class is super easy if you actually go to it. The only bad part is that he talks a lot about his personal life and I really didn't care about his water heater/life-etc. But he is really easy. I also didn't like the fact we used a 3rd party website for the homework

Great explanations in class. Really takes time to make sure everyone understands.

Professor Sicotte is a great teacher. I was just definitely not mentally prepared for a 4 week hybrid class. I loved the material in the class and the launchpad interface was very helpful. The class was just too quick for me. It was just not enough time to absorb information for me.

There is a lot of outside class work (HW, practice quiz, videos), but if you get A's on those you can still pass the class getting all C's on the test. You're allowed to use one sheet of paper with notes for the tests and there is no final. He is super nice and lectures every class, but it is definitely super helpful.

I had him online for ECO111 and decided to take him again for the full semester online ECO110. Honestly, the class is an easy A if you do well on the homework, just make sure to read the book for the exams. Definitely recommend him for both Econ classes, just don't take the short-term class if you don't have good time management skills.

I took the online format of the class, it was decently easy as long as you kept up with the workload which was slightly heavy due to the shortened Summer format. Everything is out of the online textbook and taught through textbook videos, so he does not really teach at all, which is fine and pretty normal for an async class. Would recommend.
