An excellent instructor. Made the lectures very interesting. She is one of the very few instructors that is actually trying to teach to learn and not just trying to make it difficult to pass. You actually learn. Made me want to change my major.

Professor Usnick is very boring. Everyone's rating are wrong. Her exams are extremely hard and even if you study the study guides-- it doesn't help b/c her study guides are not on the exam. If you do read the book, you would need to read the book 6-13 times to make an "A" in the class. I do not recommend her to anyone. Avoid her.

Her final is worth 40%, but it isn't bad if you study. I never read the book for this class, only studied the reviews she gave. It's true that the reviews aren't exactly on the tests, but thats only because most of it is vocabulary, you needed to know what the words meant and how to apply them, maybe that's where a lot of people went wrong.

Took the online Summer course and I wish I had taken this in-class. She is a lawyer, so she talks like a lawyer. I don't understand law, so this class was a challenge. There were 3 tests and a final, as well as a paper. She is great at communicating with people, always emailing and answering questions. Just a tough subject.

Gr8 teacher. Many (the lazy or overwhelmed) complain that she assigns alot of reading. She does, but there's no HW. The material is useful for the real world. Test are easy if u study. Questions r straight forward unlike the ones from "test pools" that ask about every nook and cranny of the book completely overlooking important concepts.

She is a sweetheart! Her lectures were fun. Grades consisted of 16 quizzes, 1 report, & 70Q final. Quizzes arent as easy bc she makes her own questions. But normally the answers were given in the lecture. Quizlet and Chegg will not help you here. She will curve grades if she finds out her questions arent well structured so this will help a lot.

The class is made incredibly simple by Professor Usnick. Lectures are uploaded weekly, both video and audio as well as a print lecture if that is your preference. One quiz a week, discussions throughout, one small project, a final exam. Be aware: The class involves a lot of reading and understanding of commercial law concepts. No way around it.

Weekly quiz that is kind of tough, definitely need to read her lectures, but she gives you two attempts at each quiz. She curves so a few missed or low grade quizzes shouldn't affect your grade. 5 participation assignments, 2 points each, all you had to do was complete and got 10 points towards score. Easy grader. Open notes final.

Professor Usnick is easy, nice and helpful. She writes all her quizzes, and you get two attempts to take them. There is one compliance report (three pages in length), it's easy. The final exam is comprehensive; you're allowed to use notes. I strongly recommend taking her. Do the work, and you'll make an A.

She creates her own quizzes,so she words them to where they are a little tricky. One PP presentation. about 5 small discussions and a OPEN NOTES FINAL EXAM. She had a final exam review.

This class was very easy, I think there was a book but I watched her lecture videos and read her notes. She does advise you get the book, there is only so much she can put into a short lecture. Her assignments are easy and although some is legal knowledge, a lot of it is common sense when you take a second to think about it. Great class/professor.

I like another person reviewing this professor don't know why she has a high rating. Most of my other courses I am able to get by with having to pay close attention in lectures and grasping what is being taught clearly making homework easy. However her lectures were so boring, other students mentioned this as well. It made it the class difficult.
