Homework and exams are very similar making it easy to study for exams. Homework is worth 10%; exams worth 90%. Exams are reasonable and she gives you everything you need to study for them. She also scales them if the average is low. She lets class out a little early most days too.

She is a very nice and understanding professor. Attendance is not mandatory but she still takes it. Classes are only lectures but she does practice questions that help with exams. Her tests are very fair and it's clear how to prepare for them, they are basically your whole grade other than a few small homework percentages.

HIGHLY recommend taking! She is new to teaching but I really have enjoyed her class. Her lectures are straight to the point and she gives at least 10 sample questions/practice problems per lecture that are similar to the ones on the test. The tests are straight forward and if you study you will do great! She wants you to succeed and is so nice!

Prof. Ostendorf was a great law professor and really prepared us to do well in her class. Don't need to read textbook because all information is in her powerpoints which are posted before each class. Does Q&A examples each chapter that are either identical or very similar to her tests. She wants her students to succeed and does a great job at this.

I would definitely recommend taking business law with Ostendorf. As long as you show up to class and do the homework quizzes, the tests are very easy. Her lectures are really interesting and she does fun things (like trivia) in the middle of class to keep people engaged. Attendance is taken via canvas.

She's awesome! other people have given her bad reviews because she takes attendance each class but lets be fr its college you're paying for these classes might as well go. Tests are straight from her lectures and we have gotten out of class early 75% of the time. She offers extra credit as well. Literally no way to fail this class.

Lectures are very helpful to understand the material. She truly takes the time to explain concepts, vocabulary, and examples. Tests are on paper, 20 true/false questions, and 20 multiple choice. You have homework after each lecture, but it's a very simple 5 questions on canvas. Attendance is taken, but I believe you do get 2 freebies.

She takes attendance during class via canvas. I literally study her power points like the day before the exam and do fine. Super easy and awesome teacher. Take her if you can. You are in good hands with her.

Amazing teacher, engaging, incredibly sweet and clearly wants her students to do well. Exams are based off of lecture slides and multiple choice, with an opportunity for extra credit by writing a short and easy paper. Highly recommend, and I wouldn't take anyone else for this class!

She cares about everything that she teaches and she wants her students to do good. Everything on the tests is straight off of the slides, and if you go to class it is hard not to do good. Tests are multiple choice, and there are other opportunities for extra credit throughout the class. Homework is super light and a grade booster. Try to take her.

Dr. Ostendorf is so fun. She made the most boring subject kind of enjoyable. The class was easy as long as you pay attention a little bit and memorize the concepts to the homework and practice questions. Definitely an easy A, hard to get below a B as long as you put forth any amount of effort.

This class changed a lot this semester- attendance is mandatory and requires you to take a random module quiz throughout the lecture to count you were there. If you go to class and listen, you will be ok. Tests are not just like the sample questions anymore, but if you study, you will be ok. Interesting material and a good professor.

goat. she's very nice and her lectures are straight forward. she gave us extra credit opportunities through trivia and an optional essay. attendance was mandatory but only worth 5% and she gives you a couple free passes. so easy to get an A if you just pay attention and do your work. best prof i've had

Study the notes you make from the slideshow and the sample questions a day before each test, and you should have an A. Plenty of quizlets out there for both.

Super great professor with very interesting lectures! Attendance being mandatory was initially annoying, but honestly attending class and taking notes made studying for exams minimal. Pay attention and study the sample questions and this class will be a breeze, a bit of hw but it is very easy to complete.

Professor Ostendorf is amazing! Lectures are clear and easy to follow and the tests are super straightforward (the exact same material and format as in-class practice questions and homework). She's very nice and understanding and tries to make the lectures interesting.

Come to class, do your work, you will pass. Study the slides and you'll get straight A's. Sometimes lecture is dry but it's completely comprehensive, she's alsopretty funny and has admitted to being on YikYak. Going to law school because of her/this class, would happily take again

Professor Ostendorf was amazing, and attendance is mandatory for semesters going forward, but the lectures are decently easy to understand. The lectures were essentially just taken off of the slides. You also have to go to class in order to take the attendance questions and get the practice question answers.

I absolutely loved Professor Ostendorf! Would take her again if I had the opportunity. Obviously cares a lot about her class and students, and the class is easy to pass if you just show up and do the work. Takes attendance every lecture and likes to do trivia. 10/10 professor.

This class is awesome. Ostendorf is an amazing professor and she makes this class engaging and easy at the same time. The effort required to get an A is extremely low, the reviews you see about people complaining over attendance or test difficulty are people who likely didn't try at all.
