Very nice personality. Tests can be difficult because she will cover a lot of material and ask very specific questions about it. Be sure and do all the assigned readings and print out her lecture slides and you should be fine. The extra credit really will help...so take advantage of it.

Dr. Grantham is a very sweet teacher. She was very helpful.. the one time I had a question about a test question she went out of her way after class to research it for me, and she didn't even know me personally (this was a huge class). Also, she made the material interesting. Take advantage of extra credit!

She does test on pretty obscure stuff. Studying for a test basically consists of you memorizing a bunch of lists (e.g. - Marketing Mix, Advertising process etc.)..pretty boring stuff.

Prof Grantham is a nice lady but her classes are just straight lectures. Kinda hard to keep focused and she moves very fast through her PowerPoints. Tests are very hard and subjective and she doesn't mention some things in class that you need to know for the tests. Your entire grade is based on 3 tests. Gives extra credit points tho.

You don't have to go to class. All you need to do for an A is read the slides and do the recharges for the smartbooks. The exams are a huge chunk of your grade, but they are free. Put in a good amount of studying the night before and you'll be fine. She is a kind professor and respectable. She is interesting to listen to and uses cool examples.

Get ready to read the textbook. There were many exam questions thats reference the textbook. The lectures were very interesting and engaging but had absolutely nothing to do with the exam. She mainly used class times to provide examples which were helpful to understand concepts but most of the exam questions come from the textbook. 90% grade=Exams

Professor Grantham is a great professor. Class time is full of examples to really drive home the points she is trying to make. The questions on the test cover the material that the homework quizzes you on, so if you understand the homework, the tests should be fine. My only gripe is that sometimes she would use class time a little inefficiently.

Not that bad even though some of the other ratings would suggest otherwise. The class is very test heavy with three test making 90% of the grade, however, if you read the book the test are really straightforward questions. Just quite a bit of reading the textbook and it's really unavoidable, but if you actually do the readings the tests are easy.

Grantham is excellent. She's passionate about the course and truly values participation. There are 3 projects (1 individual, 2 group) plus daily self-evaluated participation. The projects are interesting, and putting in effort leads to strong grades. Highly recommend as a lighter, engaging elective.

Dr. Grantham is a great lecturer and is passionate about what she teaches. However, I don't think her exams reflect the material well. There were always about 7 questions that were on the exam that seemed completely unfair. She would stress certain topics in class, then not put them on the exam, but others she said not to worry about would appear.

Dr. Grantham is a great professor who makes the content so interesting! Her class was not difficult to pay attention in, and she also brings in cool guest speakers.That being said, the exams were surprisingly difficult and did require a decent amount of studying. The class is doable, but a lot of my friends did end the class with an A- or a B+.

I really liked Dr. Grantham, her enthusiasm is the only reason I kept coming to class. While attendance isn't mandatory, it doesn't hurt since she is a passionate lecturer and often does reviews in class that she doesn't post to eLC and that are almost exactly the same as the questions on the exams.

She's passionate about her subject, but tests feel unfairly hard. They are very conceptual and hard to study for. The three tests make up 90% of your grade and she stresses not to take the final because it can and will drop your average. The homework is McGraw Hill Connect and takes a very disproportionate amount of time to do to the 10% it counts.

TAKE HER!! All you do is present 3 times over the whole semester, and sit in class and "listen" to other people present. Attendance is mandatory, but no class on Fridays for "group project work". TAKE IT!

She is an amazing lecturer and gives constant reminders about upcoming dates. Her expectations for the class is clear and she is caring. The tests are harder than seem necessary with the way that she teaches and the material we are learning, so just make sure to study a decent amount before each test. Reading the textbook helps in my experience.

3 exams which are hard. im not a good test taker so i barely passed because of how heavily the exams were weighed. shes very helpful when you need it so if youre struggling REACH OUT! she wants you to and will help you as much as you need. theres random pop quizzes about once a week but theyre not hard and dont count towards your final grade

Lots of homework

Not a bad person, and energetic during class, but the type of professor to make take their class to seriously and make it harder intentionally. Like redacts the posted lecture slides to punish anyone who misses class, subjective exam questions, no additional study materials provided. If you want an easy A take a different professor for this class.

Grantham is a great lecturer. She keeps marketing engaging. However, the exams were pretty tough, and it was hard to take good notes in her class because most of her content was spoken rather than typed out on the slides. She doesn't post her slides. Pay attention + read the textbook!
