He is a nice person, but he expects you to come from second to second which is very frustrating. His exams are hard, but he gives a nice review. But if you want to really learn the topic, you got to do the work yourself. He doesn't write on the board and talks too fast to write down his speech. B---

VERY EASY! you do not even need the books. I did not read anything and studied his slides the day before the test. He is a very detailed orientated, clear and always available. He gave a study guide - read the slides! do the simple discussions and you will get an A too!

Professor Fogel is a very unfair grader. He have you do a few discussion boards online during the semester, but doesnt give you credit for it. He gives an OPTIONAL midterm and if you take that, its 30% of your grade. If you dont, the accumulative final is 100% of your grade! More than one class with him, all finals taken in one sitting!

Ive never in my college career taken a course that is 100% based off the final . If you fail the final you fail the course . This professor gives little assignments in blackboard which only go towards you getting a curve on the test . If youre not a good test taker DONT take him .

How can a course be dependent upon final exam (100 %). If thats the case then why does he posts discussion board assignments ? He should be clear that no assignments only Final exam. What a joke this class and prof is. Dont take this prof if you love your GPA please ...

Avoid this prof. His final exam decides what grade you will get which is kind of funny and confusing because whatever you get on final exam is your final grade . So if you fail in final exam but you did your assignments u will still fail which is unfair. Avoid him

To be honest, this class is easy if you study his slides because that is what every question on his two exams(one of them is optional) based on, and I could tell that he put in a lot of time into creating them. Complainers, you are at your own risk if you decided to stay after reading his syllabus and knowing his grading criteria.

Professor Fogel cares greatly about his work in all details. I deeply respect and appreciate his wisdom and experience. He gave an optional exam and a mandatory exam with a few discussion boards this winter. It was a very good class with important information to handle stress in the work place. I liked Professor Fogels class and you should take it!

He is the worst professor I have ever had in my years of being in college. He goes over the lesson so fast and doesn't give you a chance to fully understand the lesson. He does not give any extra credit and the whole class is based on what you get in the final and midterm homework is only worth 5%

Took this Professor for Winter 2022 Session ONLINE. It was my last semester at BK College. His assignments are straightforward. The syllabus explains everything you need to know to pass his class! He provides informational PowerPoints to help you with assignments. I loved this class as it prepared me for the real world in Business!

Read the syllabus as it will tell you everything you need to know about this class that way you are not surprised in the end. He is an easygoing Professor. Do the work, and read/study. PowerPoint slides offer everything you need to know for exams. What you put in, you'll get out. So if you Do the work and put your best foot forward, you will pass.

to be honest, this professor was not bad as I thought he would be, much better than my other professor who gave random essays at the end of the year that is not mentioned in the syllabus. We were able to take the test online which is good, he is chill about the homework and no pop quiz or nothing, grading criteria is clear.

Ok, so I would say that he is a very cool Professor. He gave two exams for the semester (a midterm and a final) but what he teaches in class actually helps you prepare for his exams. A few days before the exam, he gives a review on what topics you need to study for the exam which can help you focus on what you should study so you don't waste time.

Not worth it, always late and your grade is based off a midterm worth of 30% and a final of 50%. His class is always 70% going off topic then actual 30% of explaining the class material. Don't take him if you have other options!

Asynchronous class. No homework. Mandatory final (70%), optional exam (30%), and extra credit exam. If you only take the final then it would be 100% of your grade. Exams are based on his slides so not that difficult. He gave some discussion boards which count as extra credit, but only "if you do them correctly" however he never graded them.

Exams are Easy. One Midterm, One Final. Some homework to be completed to participate in the next class. Be ready to get bored by his off-topic discussion in class. He mostly gets off the class track and comes back. and lost track again. If you choose to be in person, you have to attend all Tuesdays in person, and the midterm will be in person.
