She's very strict and her tests are totally absurd- don't take her, instead take Mitchell Redlo or Lee.

Her lectures were way too fast for any layperson to the subject. Unless you have a 3 year background in economics, you probably won't understand her. She also had the audacity to tell me that my major was just like economics when I told her I couldn't keep up. My major? Computer Science.

Avoid taking Mitchell if you value your grades at all. The class average on the final was a 42 and she didn't curve it at all. I felt like I learned more from the TA than her. Extremely tough to pull out an A.

Very tough grader, very high expectations of you and a very difficult class. Do not take if you are looking for an easy A, you most likely will not get it. The TA is more helpful than she is, so go to the TA review sessions. She does know her stuff, though. Don't recommend unless you don't want an A

While she really knew her stuff, she wasn't always clear, and when going to her for help, she wouldn't be all that helpful and kind of brushed you off. Average on final was a 42. Said offensive things in class on occasion, and in any conversation when I went for help, she could just be kind of rude.

Prof. Mitchell is the type of professor that requires you to do it her way or get a complete 0 on the problem. She's the type of professor that has a lot of knowledge but cannot communicate it to the students. If you miss one class, you are definitely behind. This class will pull down your GPA with avg exam scores of about 60-65%.

Professor Mitchell is not only a horrible professor, she is a horrible human being. She is very opinionated which reflects both in her lectures, and her grading of tests. If your opinion doesn't match hers, it's wrong. She also would constantly make fun of and discriminate students for supporting Trump. I'm surprised she still has a job.

Mitchell for her online MacroEconomics course has everything automated through myeconlab and recorded lectures. Her responses in e-mails was very limited, making learning for the class fall entirely on you. I earnestly wanted to learn more from this class, but ended up using google/textbook more than the professor I paid for.

Terrible professor, just terrible!

Her grading was unreasonably rigid and the exams were too difficult for a 200 level required course. I was putting more effort into this class before I dropped it than my 400 level classes. She also rants about politics way more than is reasonable. Unless you like hearing misguided political views and unnecessary work, don't take her.

She took 2-3 week to grade your assignments and expect you to do your assignment on time or else you receive zero credit. Also,how can you improve on your next assignment if you didn't get a feedback on the previous one on-time? She called them quizzes but people,these essays averaged 1200 words. She's equal to worst raised to the infinity power.

Her lectures aren't that bad. She's absolutely terrible at responding to any questions you have about assignments. Her answers were lazy and rude. Did relatively well in the class, but I've never seen such an unprofessional unwillingness to help students. Also she gives no partial credit.

This woman is completely incapable of using zoom (year three of the pandemic) and is constatnly disrupted by a satan spawn by the name of chester that has manifested as a Chihuahua with a horrendous attitude. She gives one attempt on pearson homework and expects no collaboration while also giving MASSIVE quizzes to be done weekly. Also, shes rude.

One word..incompetent. Easily the worst professor I've had. She's a very tough grader; she will give you zeros with little to no explanation..it feels as if she wants you to fail. She doesn't post your grades so you don't know where you stand unless you ask which gets you a snarky response. She's rude, condensing and creates a negative environment.

How she is still a professor is beyond me. Her lectures are boring, her annoying dogs are yapping every class and she goes on tirades about the most useless topics. I feel like I've gained absolutely nothing all semester. She makes you write papers every week and her instructions for these assignments look like they are written by a toddler.

Her class is not that good to be honest. Her lectures are boring and tells boring stories about economics all the time. Her exams are timed that are pretty difficult and you have to get a good grade on it or else you will fail. Lots of questions on exams. My final exam was 146 questions in 2 hours and 30 minutes. Other professors might be better.

My respect for her as declined to a bare minimum. She is extremely derogative to students who do not perform their work correctly, such as quizzes. She will give you a zero if you misunderstand even one thing. The notes are disorganized. Always wants to have debates and is super controversial. My grade would be better if I had clearer directions.

Gives assignments that don't make since and expects her students to know things. IN class doesn't even talk about the topic or how to do things. Complains a lot about her problems. Also forced to buy a subscription to Pearson so she can auto assign hw and not have to deal with anything.

Very poor class. I though MECE classes were the worst, but this is actually paying money for nothing. Mycourses has nothing on it. The syllabus, some photocopied readings, and "quizes" which are just homeworks. No info on anything or a calander. Zoom only, takes notes on MS Paint?! Class is about 10% the topic, the rest is ramblings.

Not a good professor. Teaches on Paint. Doesn't give appropriate feedback. No guidelines and draws graphs manually. Lost interest in Economics due to the instructor.

Do not take this class. She goes on rants during lecture that has nothing to do with class. The homework is nothing like the topics discussed in class and the exams are 100+ questions each. Quizzes are worth 25% of the grade and if you mess up on anything she takes off a lot of points. Do not take this class if you care about your education.

Don't take this class if you value your grades and sanity. She goes on insanely long rants instead of teaching and then makes quizzes that have nothing to do with what she's teaching in general, then removes an insane amounts of points for the smallest mistakes. The tests have over 100 questions yet you will have just over an hour to complete them.

Her lectures are disorganized with no slides and she often went on useless rants that were off topic. Her quiz instructions were extremely vague and her grading criteria was not communicated at all. She took very long to grade and respond to emails and graded very harshly. Genuinely the worst teacher I have ever had. Ruined my interest in econ.

RUN. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROF. Doesn't even teach from a book, she just takes stuff from her head and writes it sloppily down onto MS paint. She is so old I though I sometimes thought I was gonna watch someone die in front of me. She also like doesn't fill in grades. I just took the final and I don't even know what grade I got for the 3rd homework.

This professor does not even base her lectures on anything. She pulls up ms paint and just draws graphs and whatnot. She often rambles on and complains about her personal life as well. She is an extremely rigorous grader and there is not much to support you when it comes to studying for tests.

Online class but she doesn't know how to use the internet. There are 5-10 full essays for this class. The people who say this instructor is "not that bad" don't mind putting in 14 hours a week for this class. Seriously avoid this instructor. She's also very mean, which may offend some people though I found it hilarious.

One of the worst professors I ever took.

She doesn't really teach the concepts, she mostly just draws bad graphs on ms paint. She also shares too many unrelated personal stories which distracts from the topic of the class. She mocks people when they ask clarifying questions and she's overall a very rude person. No clear grading criteria either which makes assignments harder.

She just opens MS paint and just starts drawing graphs everywhere, really unorganized drawings also so no one knows what is even going on. She grades like a maniac do not take this prof

SHE IS EVIL. The homework she assigns takes forever, for example I just completed a 37 question quiz with most of the questions have 2-6 parts on material that isn't taught in class. she doesn't know how to teach, uses ms paint and draws horrible graphs. She shouldn't be allowed to teach. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS

Please avoid her. Very unclear grading that takes forever. The professor is not approachable and it's hard to discuss with her.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS She knows her economics, no doubt, but do not ignore the reviews like she does. It is a matter of fact that this professor should not be teaching at RIT. Her syllabus reads like satire (no late work, no grade rounding, suggests deleting all games to study more, etc.). To Mitchell: You are dissuading many students from the subject

If you find yourself looking for an Econ prof, take ANYONE but Mitchell. Taught Econ based on theory and not the actual material we were tested on. Insane amount of hw with many graphing questions. Teaches using MS Paint and often deleted slides before you could read them. Her final was 40% of your grade with over 120 questions in 2.5 hr

Rude and abrasive to students in class, does not provide feedback in a timely manner and rambles about incoherent nonsense for much of her lectures. No lecture material is posted online and her lecture visuals are done in MS Paint by hand.

Absolutely worst class I have ever taken, I would caution anybody from taking her. Takes notes on paint and never posts them, her lectures are not recorded. Loves giving quizzes but she does't want the answers from the book but from what she said in class only! Her lectures are 90 percent gibberish and 10 percent of barely covering the topics.

Do you want a professor who doesn't respond to emails, doesn't list exam dates on the syllabus or MyCourses, and announces a 20% exam less than two weeks in advance? She uses MS Paint to hand-draw graphs, never posts a full study plan, and ignores requests to review exams or schedule office hours.

Professor did a horrible job at explaining concepts, as everything was drawn through a terrible ms paint canvas. I mean, she literally told us she was not supposed to teach us material, we were supposed to learn on our own. Do not take this professor if you value your GPA.

She doesn't upload her notes so it's really hard to study for this class. The tests are all based on the textbook knowledge while in lecture she says to ignore the textbook info and only listen to her. She weights her final exam heavily so like 8-10 hws and 2 exams 20% weight while the final exam is 40%.
