great teacher. knows how to teach it because he's gone out and done it and the class projects are very beneficial. looking back, however, i wouldn't have bought the book because we basically picked it apart during lectures

Zweig's awesome, and he really knows what he's talking about. He's also the only teacher who can keep a 3 hour class interesting. His expertise isn't complicated or technical, in fact, a lot of it seems like common sense, but Zweig puts all the aspects of business in perspective and gives you a real idea of what the business world is be like.

its a three-hour class but it goes by pretty quickly. he talks a lot about his success as well as how much money he spends; it gets kind of annoying. either way, the class isnt too difficult. just pay attention in class.

The hardest part of this class is coming up with a good business idea, so have some ready when the semester begins. Other than that, the class is pretty easy, just go to class and put some effort into the project and you will get an A. If you ever considered starting your own business, take this class and talk to him about it, he'll help you.

I am taking this class right now and I am very disappointed with my experience and cannot wait until it is over. Apparently he changed.Mr. Zweig is extremely critical and demeaning towards everyone. He is funny, interesting and smart, but when it comes to helping his students, he doesn't really have anything constructive to say. Wouldn't reccommend

He's very knowledgable so if you want to be an entrepreneur this is the class to take. The group project 30% of your grade. My group was horrible and made this a terrible experience. So make sure you're in a group with people who are not lazy!! Wathchout with Zweig he is VERY critical and blunt about what he says to you.

Zweig uses profanity and likes to talk about his own business ventures, but has a lot of knowledge to share. He has a lot of common sense ideas and a nice management style. Several nights Zweig chose to talk about his own ventures for 2.5 hours and then class content for the last .5 hour which was frustrating, but was interesting at times.

Just do what your suppose to do, have fun, learn, go to class for a great grade, and your good to go. It's not a bunch of math or theory or textbook work, it is real hands on learning.

Prof. Zweig is no-citing-textbooks type of a professor, willing to share his experience of REAL business world.

We've hardly used the textbook.

Mark is one of the best professors I have had at the U of A. His real world knowledge has taught me more than any other business class so far. It is great to have a class that prepares you for success and not just memorizing a text book. I think every business major at the U of A should take at least one course by Mark.

Zweig is awesome. Really willing to help, great teacher, great lecturer. Tells lots of stories in class and makes it fun. Would take him again in a heartbeat. The class is difficult, heavily based participation and a single groupwork grade towards the end of the semester. Stay on top of it and you'll be fine though. Zweig's awesome.

Zweig is one of the most experienced local business leaders teaching at Fayetteville. Teaches a lot of things that just cant be written down in a book. He also has some pretty distinguished guest speakers that come and talk. Grades rely heavily on the group project but it's not really that difficult. He also has some pretty interesting stories

I came into the class with an open mind from the college of engineering and was only disappointed in the level of effort and enthusiasm the other classmates showed, but maybe that's my own standards.

Zweig has a lot of experience as a major business owner throughout Fayetteville. However, he is terrible at sharing his knowledge through lectures. He does bring in good guest speakers but is unable to connect all the information in a learn-able way. This class has very little structure and the group project is a majority of your grade.

Zweig is a very experienced and smart guy, but his class was not exactly the easiest. Two quizzes and group project are the only grades where you are graded on material, so go to class every week for this is a big part of your grade. Do this and you should get a good grade. He also is not afraid to tell you what he really thinks!

Good teacher, really funny. BUT lectures are always super long, and he kind of rambles on during lectures a bit too much. He needs to get to the point and move on to the next topic, but ends up telling stories from his personal life that takes up like 1/2 the class. Easy class, just have to show up bc attendance is mandatory. Pretty easy grader.
