preperation for REAL LIFE, to much class work if you have a life. I'm not a lazy

Although this was a hard course, I felt that it was a very beneficial class

Very diffrent approach to teaching. Learned the most in this class than any other college course. Hate lectures you will love this class.

Dr. Clark is more than helpful! He is only intimidating to those who take him the wrong way. He wants the best for all his students, and teaches them the real-world approach...not like any other class you will take!

This class is very challenging but if you are planning to go into business, it's probably the best class you can take. I got more out of this class that any other class I ever had. He gives you an great opportunity to make something you'll use in the future and helps you with anything you need.

Dr. Clark is, by far, the hardest professor I have ever had, and I took him as a second degree student. He will expect a lot of you and expect nothing but your best work. However, if you really want to learn marketing, this is the guy to take. You'll work your butt off, but come out knowing much more than any other class. Word of advice = VOLUNTEER

he was very hard. but you ACTUALLY learn something there

Nice guy. He just means business, you learn more in his class than you would in any other class here at SVSU.

Class was a ton of work, you will learn a lot. He can be a bit intimidating, but its just a front, he is actually a really nice guy.

Dr. Clark is a very very good professor. He can be a bit intimidating, but dont let him bother you, he really is a nice guy. Just do your work and do a good job and you will have a great semester. You will learn a ton and the class is not difficult, but it is time consuming. Dont be slacker. We got pizza about every class. I would take him again.

The class is very easy to get an A in. He is very tough and expects a lot from you but it is all things that will be very important in the future. Dr. Clark gets his students ready for the future. He can be an **** about things but you have to understand that he is doing it because he wants the very best out of you. He is also a great person

He is avery tough teacher that expects alot out of his students, but the main reason why he expects so much from his students is because he wants to see them succeed. Make sure you do the work that is assigned to you and do you best like you would do for a job and everything will be fine......p.s. Get as many CPP points as you can.

If you treat the class like a job, you will do well. The best parts about this course is you make good friends, usually eat pizza, and the 4 hours goes by fast.

Dr. Clark is one of the best. I was also scared of him because of all the bad feedback from some students. However, after taking him I realized that those student are just slackers. Clarks classes are fun! I looked forward to going to his classes and now that I graduated, I can say that his classes made the biggest impact on me.

Dr. Clark is hard, but if you do YOUR job and keep with it, his classes will be the most valueable experience you can have at SVSU. Get on his good side and he will like you, and give you an A. And work your ass off. You'll have a great report to show job interviewers and a good GPA.

Dr. Clark is simply the best. Yes, he is hard, but trust me, if you work hard it will pay off and his classes will be the most worthwhile ones you ever take!!!! Anyone who says he "bullies" and "scares" students is just lazy and unwilling to pull their share of the work. The more you stand up to him, the more he will respect you. GREAT teacher!

dr clark's class is pretty tough. however, his class is one of the best at SVSU and i would recommend him to anyone who wants to better themselves. his class will take most of your time and can be quite stressful.

Yes his class it hard! Yes, he doesn't tell you what to do and is vague about instructions on how to do something. Thats because you should think for yourself. He can seem unfair but do you really think that the real world isn't. Some say he's a jerk, they didn't understand what he was trying to do for them an if they didn't thats their fault!

At first he was intimidating, and yes you are required to put in a lot of time and effort, but this class I felt challenged everyone intellectually, which was great. It is not true about failing the class or getting a lower grade if you are not social, you just need to stay with it and do the work that is asked. Overall great teacher.

I cannot believe half the idiots on here. Dr. Clark is the best marketing professor in the world. I learned so much more from him in my 2 marketing classes than I have my whole school careeer. Sorry if you are a slacker and sit on your butt. The whole point is he makes you prepare for the real world. Great teacher and much knowledge, I learned a lo

Dr. clark is a great teacher i had im for a 6 pm to 10 and the time flew by yes its a ton of work but if you get a good group and have good sense of humor you will love him

Youll HATE or LOVE is teaching method... can be rude but its only because he expects a lot from his students. For all those saying he's an ass, go back to highschool, this is COLLEGE and this is a 300 level class...

Took all of his classes. I grad. 4 yrs ago& still to this day Dr. Clark was the best professor that I have had @ SVSU. You work hard but it pays off & you learn a lot that you can use in the "real world" & in your career. I heard he was an ass but walked out of that class with a different perspective & a lot of useful knowledge. Thank you Dr. Clark

If you are a weak minded,lazy and stupid individual do not take this class. He does not suffer fools, neither does the real world!If you do not have a need for business sense do not take this class.However if you can absorb information and use some guidance for the real world take this class!!! Best money spent on undergrad.

I agree with the post below. If you think you are going to just skate by, this is not the case. This class will challenge you. He will challenge you. If he gives you attitude, just give it right back. He loves it. Just make sure you know that when he takes the class out to eat he can drink like a manbearpig. GREAT CLASS! The best MKT at SV!

great prof.

He is the best Marketing professor at SVSU.He gives you tools that you can ACTUALLY USE in the REAL WORLD! He depends on the students to be organized and to make their own decisions. He doesn't do it for you. This is a hard class and it might be frustrating at times, but it is well worth it. If you put a lot in it, you'll get alot out.

He is tough, and his class is a GPA dropper, but everyone walks in with a fair chance. He doesn't pre-judge, but he doesn't take crap. You are either a good student, or a lazy student. His assignments may be tough and his directions unclear, but if you ask for clarity, he will give it to you. I guarantee you, you will learn so much in his classes.

May not use the book. Class is intended as more of hands-on. This class is a real world job like simulation. Dr. Clark is your boss and everything he asks of you you had better get it done. It does help you in the long run too. I am very thankful to have taken this class because I feel like I learned a lot more then if the class were lecture.

The only reason anyone complains that his class is difficult is because most other instructors do not prepare students well enough for real expectations. If you have coasted through anything in your life you know exactly what I mean. This bothers Clark and I think it should bother more people.

I have taken Dr. Clark for 5 classes. I think back to that first day when I thought about dropping his class & how different my academic life would be if I would have dropped. He teaches you a lot if you are willing to listen and work. He expects a lot, but he has seriously changed my academic career & has given me skills for the real world.

He is my favorite professor at SVSU. If you have a good work ethic then you won't have a problem acing this class.

Dr. Clark is scary as hell, but you will learn SO much from his class. I almost dropped after the first day, but I'm glad I didn't. If you LISTEN and DO YOUR WORK you will do perfectly fine. If you're lazy, steer clear! He won't let you get away with it. He seems unapproachable at first...but once you get to know him, you'll get more comfortable.

The best of the best if he doesn't scare you so much the first week that you drop the course. This class takes up as much time out of class as a part time job but is worth it and prepared you for life after college. if you like to take chances, TAKE GARY CLARK!

strange personalty, but great professor. I learned the most in that class but a lot of work.

I learned quite a bit in this class. If you are willing to try and work hard, he is willing to help you get extra points to boost up your grade later in the semester. I highly recommend him as a professor.

Awesome professor, you will lear Sooooooo much but be prepared to work for it.

The class is a real world simulation. And Dr. Clark is pretty hard core. He doesn't tolerate slackers and is not afraid to call students out when they are doing something wrong. Although it was the hardest, it was the most rewarding class I have ever taken and I learned so much. But if you want to succeed in his class, get ready to work for it!!

Very tough old school teacher. Seems like an ass at first but he's probably just joking around. He won't hesitate to call out a student but in all fairness, he won't be offended if you call him out on someone. Not a class to take if you're looking for an easy grade but a great one to get you ready for the real world

Dr. Clark is not the nicest professor, but definitely worth choosing. You will learn the most in his classes than any other professor. You will be assigned into groups on the first day, and will spend the whole semester working on the main client project. Your grade is determined by the team project, CPP assignments, quizzes, and peer evaluations.

Dr. Clark was extremely intimidating on the first night of class, but he only does that to get the lazy people to drop the class. If you aren't willing to work for it, don't take the class. I learned more in Dr. Clark's course than I have in ANY other course at SVSU. I'd highly recommend taking his class if you're a business or marketing major.

Clark is one of the best professors at SVSU. Get past his initial "intimidation lecture" and you will taking one of the best courses of your college career.
