He gives you every opportunity to do well in his class. He counts your best test twice, and gives added points. Dr. Scott is a great teacher. He explains everything clearly, and if you need help, he is more than happy to oblige.

This guy is great. He gives you lots of opportunities to make a good grade. He explains well. You have chances to make bonus points. He doubles your best test grade. I was dreading this class, but Dr. Scott made it interesting. You do have to study, this is college, you should have to work.

He makes it interesting and understandable. He's pretty funny, but most of the class doesn't get the jokes.

Dr. Scott is well spoken and always has time for his students.

Great class. Gave me a love of the subject matter I never expected in a million years of having. Great professor with a good sense of humor.

This class is pretty hard for a basic economics class. The tests tend to be pretty different than what is covered in class. A lot of stress is put on the vocab instead of the actual concepts. If possible dont take this class.

His test are hard. He will help you but if you don't read the book you probably will not make an A. He puts ?'s from the book on test but does not go over it in class.Study = B+ or maybe an A

Definitely a more challenging class than I anticipated but Dr. Scott made it interesting at most. It's not mandatory to come to class and as long as you read and understand the chapters in the book, you should be fine! You shouldn't depend on your notes though..useless. And he doubles your highest test grade.

By far, the hardest professor I've ever had. His tests are SO hard even if you attend every class & study. I've heard he gets his test questions from the information in the book but either way, the tests are super hard. There are extra credit opportunities. If you want to pass, attendance would be a good idea. Good luck!

It was really hard, but he gave me all the help I asked for. Twixt bars for right answers were great. He was real funny, but some people didn't get him. He kept me awake and explained things well. Made it interesting for me.

Very knowledgeable and talented teacher. His class can be difficult in some spots but his enthusiasm and understanding of the subject makes it a fun and enjoyable class. He loves it when you come to class ready to answer questions.

Easy class. Plenty of extra credit and a lot of points are given just for showing up. Great professor.

Great professor. He provides a text and doesn't lecture much. The quizzes and tests aren't very hard as long as you do the reading and pay attention during discussion questions. Most of the class doesn't do the work or even try to answer discussion questions and then wonders why they fail the tests. The DQs require you to actually read the text.

Most say he is tough, but I enjoyed his class and did well for the most part. He writes his own text and posts online, so if you read and study it, the tests and quizzes aren't too bad. There is significant extra credit for each test, because they aren't exactly easy. Read, go to class, pay attention, and answer when called on. You will do fine.

I took him once a week for 3 hours. Class was long and boring. He asks questions the whole time, BUT you are graded on your answers. So class is mandatory if you want a good grade. I studied 2-3 hours prior to his tests made high B's on all. Provides extra credit on tests. Quizes every day over the chapter you were suppose to read. not hard.

Great professor. Mild mannered & thorough. Writes his own PDF book available for free online, & book is as simple & straight forward as the subject can be. Show up for class, participation is 20% of the grade. Took some studying to come up just shy of an A, but not a hart class at all. WARNING: BANGS ON DESK VERY LOUDLY OUT OF ENTHUSIASM.

This guy is pretty much nuts, but it's enough to keep you awake at 8 am. He writes his own text so its free, short, and relevant to tests, but he's a science fiction novelist so there are intercepts at the beginning of each chapter. Significant extra credit opportunities! Attendance is mandatory and there's a quiz every week, but you learn a lot.

I love this teacher! You have to work hard to do well in his class. A lot of people complain that he is to hard, but everything he asks comes from the reading. You just have to actually study the reading. He is super helpful and knowledgable. I have learned a lot in his class. Take him!

Great Guy! Doesn't lecture, asks questions straight from the reading for participation grades in class, attendance is a must, GO SEE HIM TO GET PRACTICE TEST ANSWERS!! Half of the quiz questions usually are questions from the practice tests. Tests are hard, but as long as u have participations and quiz grades, you will do fine.

Great teacher! People complain because they do not study or do work. Yes, you have to work hard. Oh no! What a concept! Also, he provides the book for FREE. So people need to stop complaining about him writing his own. Actually study for this class and pay attention instead of playing on Yik Yak like half the class and you will be golden.

He is one of my favorite professors I've had so far at UNG. If you read the text (which is free), class is easy. Take notes in class on the things you don't know. You will actually learn the material, not just scrape through. He is a good teacher and very eager to help. Also funny!

He is a very nice professor and very smart when it comes to Economics. He designed the class in a way so that if you want an A, you will have to work hard for it. But this is college, what do you expect? He provides the textbook which he wrote himself, and as long as you do some dense reading and pay attention, you can make an A.

He''s tough but fair. He is always available and if you participate and ask questions you will do well. DO NOT text in class or you will get the boot. Be respectful and you get it right back. A decent fair teacher.

Dr. Scott is a professor who makes you earn your grade. You have to put time into this class (and attend if you want vital points). Not a blow-off! But if you put in the effort you will surely learn something. I cannot go a day without thinking about some material relating to economics. Dr. Scott is ALWAYS more than available to help. Good luck!

He's a great teacher with an amazing understanding of the subject. He wrote the text making it very important to passing the class. Do the work and extra credit and an A is possible.

Dr. Scott is extremely knowledgable about economics and is a great teacher. He's always willing to help and there is literally no such thing as a dumb question. Its difficult to get an A unless you are really dedicated to the class. Slacking off on reading and studying is not an option if you want an A

I still can't figure this guy out, interesting fellow. Overall his class was challenging, but also rewarding. I'm not a poli sci major, but I'm glad I took it. He is very good at presenting the material and got me interested.

Need to do the readings and the practice test questions and get the answers from him in his office. When I started doing that, I even had fun.

Great Professor! His tests can be difficult, and he does give quizzes without lecturing. After the quizzes, while you study for the next chapter quiz, he asks questions on the previous chapter. It helps when it comes to the actual tests! If you try and take the class seriously you will get an A!

I made a 93 in this class, but I will not lie, this class is challenging. If you want to make an A, you will need to put in a lot of work outside of class. The tests and quizzes are tough, and the participation questions are no joke, but as long as you read each chapter of the textbook a few times and pay attention in class, an A is attainable.

This is an amazing professor. He provides the textbook for free and all you have to do is read 1-2 short chapters a week and answer a participation question in class. I don't understand why he has bad ratings. He can be intimidating at first, but go to his office hours and ask for the practice test answers (he is very helpful for the test).

He's very difficult. If you can get the questions from someone who's already taken the class you'll probably do fine. He gives quizzes every week and they are pretty difficult. He only gives 3 tests so make sure you don't fail one because it will kill your average. No homework in the class though. He provides textbook.

The most interesting professor at UNG. The lectures are example heavy and explain everything better than the book so seriously, don't skip class. He gives 2 extra credit quizzes that add directly to your test grade so watch the dang movies for an easy boost. If you're socialist now then you won't be after taking this course. That's a good thing :)

His tests are based off of his textbook that he wrote, which he provides for free. He also provides a practice test for each exam, which is where he gets a lot of quiz and test questions. He gives a quiz over every chapter, nearly every week, but they are 6 questions with extra credit. He also gives extra credit after the first two tests.

I did all the reading and the quizzes were not bad. He lets you drop some. They prepare you for the test. I liked that I knew exactly what I needed to do. He expected us to learn a lot, but it's a few pages at a time, so it worked out.

I think the people that give this professor such a low rating are those who just really don't understand basic economic principles. The class is stupid easy. Read a couple pages, show up, and take a 4 question quiz at the end of class. The tests aren't hard if you pay attention to the reading. Probably one of my easiest classes this semester.

You only have to read about 4 pages before class. In class, he reviews the reading extensively if you ask questions. Then you take an easy 4-question quiz. He drops your 9 lowest quizzes. 3 tests make up 75%, and quizzes make up 25%. Final is not cumulative. He provides study methods & practice tests. Nice fella. Just gotta try a bit in his class.

While this is the most difficult course I have taken, the expectations are straightforward. Dr. Scott uses the class period to answer questions and provides many resources to help students succeed. He is always available during his office hours to answer additional questions. Test questions come from his textbook and daily quizzes.

I put things off in most classes, but he gives a quiz every day over three or four pages of text so I kept up. Learn the pages. Be ready to ask questions. And you'll have it made. If you don't, then you will be nowhere. The tests are really hard, but if you come by his office and ask questions he gives a lot of help.

Professor Scott is a very knowledgeable teacher. He spends the class answering questions to the reading assigned the night before (which is from a free book he wrote himself) and elaborating on concepts and then you take a quiz over said reading. Complaining about a few errors in his book is pointless and I recommend taking this interesting course.

John Scotts Macroeconomics class was really not bad. If you ask questions about the reading, you will be fine. YOU HAVE TO READ. Every single thing on the test comes straight from his textbook. If you do the practice test, read, and ask questions you will be fine.

His text book is free. He expects you to read every chapter before class, so read every night. He does quizzes through tophat. Always go to him before tests during office hours to review the study guides he posts. He's not a bad professor, took him as a short session summer class. If you will actually put in the work, his classes are not hard.

This class was great. You have quizzes every day, but if you do the assigned reading, you should be fine. The test questions are made up of the study guides, the in-class quizzes, and textbook information. He spends class time going over everything. He shows fun videos that help discuss what is being talked about.

He is such a good professor. He wrote the textbook and gives it to you for free. There are reading quizzes in every class but they are a good way to help your grade. The tests are very straightforward and he is extremely helpful during office hours. He is very passionate about ECON and explains in ways that are easy to grasp as a beginner.

This is a VERY difficult class. If you don't study A TON, you will not be sucessful. This class was hybrid. Students only came to class for exams. All study material was online. Anytime I had a questions about something in the course Mr. Scott returned my emails the same day. It's not his fault MACRO is a difficult subject.

Macroeconomics was not an easy class, but it was an enjoyable class. You have to come to class and you have to read the textbook. It was challenging, but I made an A. Dr. Scott is super interesting to listen to and does a good job at explaining the concepts. If you put forth effort, you will do well. This is not a class that you can skim by on.

You have a quiz everyday, each quiz has 5 questions (you always get 1 question correct). 9 of the lowest quiz grades are dropped. There are 3 Exams, 1st is semi hard, 2nd very hard, third easy (not cumulative) Exams 1 and 2 have extra credit over 2 hour movies. I only watched one for extra credit and got 13 out of 15 right. (67 to 80) Smart man.

If you're looking for an easy A, I would take another class. However, I learned a lot in this class. Study the textbook! All of his exams are over the textbook. His lectures only help to further understand the textbook. He cares about his students, and he is easily accessible outside of the class. Put in the work and you'll get a good grade.

Study the textbook as much as you can. Since he wrote it, the majority of the class comes from stuff right there. The lectures just reinforced the chapters. I also got bonus point from the videos. Since they were long, I had to break them up and watch about 1/2 at a time. The class was not that hard if you really focused on the textbook.

John Scott cares about what he is teaching. Make sure to read the textbook when you study and take notes during the lectures. The one thing i loved about this class was the extra credit you can earn on tests. I ended up getting over 10 extra points on each test with the extra credit assignments.

Dr. Scott is excellent! His class was very entertaining and he really knows his stuff. I learned an insane amount of stuff from his class, and I'll miss him. Do what he says to do to succeed! The readings aren't too long, quiz in class every day but pay attention to the questions. Tests can be tricky but study the textbook and go to his office!

Great professor. He knows his stuff, and now I know it too. He gives out a decent amount of homework. His handwriting is complete chicken scratch, so you have to listen to him talk. And he has a temper when it comes to phones, don't plan on using them within 20 miles of this guy. Despite all that, I learned a lot. Very cool.

Dr. Scott is very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject he teaches. The class consists of daily quizzes and 3 tests. Dr. Scott also links practice tests and is very willing to explain and reexplain material in his office hours. As long as you read and TAKE NOTES on the textbook and show up to class as much as you can, it's fairly easy.

4q quiz after every class. gives practice tests b4 every test, but they dont cover all the 4 ch. If you skip class youll get a 0 on quiz and miss content. I advice reading the content b4 going to class. For better understanding and grade, visit him to go over the practice tests and questions regarding material. great professor, would take him again

This professor single handedly got me into economics. Yes he is difficult, you cannot play on your phone in his class, and you cannot sleep in his class but you shouldn't be doing that anyway. If you are serious about learning economics then he is great. If you are just trying to complete your required credits then you will hate this class.

Daily quizzes made me keep up. Read the material before class and listen and get a good quiz grade. Tests are hard, so keep up and check answers on practice tests. He gives help outside class. I liked the videos and took notes on them and raised my course grade by a letter with the extra credit. Don't touch your phone or he'll kick you out.
