Michelle has been teaching for a few years at SRJC . I am glad to have taken her. She has great lectures (mostly if you're an audible learner) that are fast paced but not too fast. Her midterm is split up into 4 parts unlike other instructors. She's nice, approachable, and listens to students. Generous grade curving on midterms! MyEconLab is the HW

Prof. Conley is very passionate about economics. I was not looking forward to taking economics, but she made it really interesting. She cares about her students and wants them to do well. That doesn't mean she's easy, but it means she's available to help. Pay attention in class and take good notes, put in some effort and you'll do great.

So Conley is super knowledgeable and she makes Econ seem interesting, but she is not an easy teacher. She is super friendly and I love her lectures but she throws you curve-balls on the tests. You will see stuff on test that you don't remember her ever discussing. I feel like the tests are extremely hard. Reading the text is a MUST.

She's the sweetest professor and knows her stuff about Economics ! With that being said this is not an easy class. Her tests are hard & I even felt that the review sessions did not help much because a lot of the information on the tests was completely different as to what she told us to review.

Three exams, one quiz, and online homework using MyEconLab. Attend class and pay attention! Econ is a naturally difficult subject but she's a good teacher! Probably one of the best econ teachers available at the JC, if not the best. There is a group debate at the end of the semester that's not too bad. Just do all your work and you should pass.

Ms. Conley is a great teacher and easily the best option for Econ 1 at SRJC. I had taken AP econ in high school and hated it, but she inspired me to really enjoy the class. You need to read, you need to take good notes, and you need to study. But if you do these things, an A is not impossible. There is a graphing quiz, 3 tests, and a final debate.

Economics is a though class, but Professor Conley makes it interesting and understandable. She is accessible should you need help, all you have to do is ask. the test are tough , but she is incredibly approachable and helpful, I'm a high school concurrent student and i will take another class with her. She is so far my favorite teacher.

Prof. Conley is cool, she is really great with her students, and beyond ready to help when help is needed, don; b afraid to ask for help! shes super sweet! not to mention all of the materials she provides for us to use. her tests can be kinda tough, but the homework totally prepares you, and her videos are super helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

She is a great teacher (and an even better person)! The exams are fair and everything is covered either in her lectures or in the textbook. If you study and put in the work, you will do well on her exams. She truly cares about her students (a rare characteristic). I highly recommend her to any Econ major students.

She's really passionate about what she does which makes it really interesting. She's super chill and is always willing to explain things if you don't understand. She is fair but expects you to be independent. She does like these college point things that are really helpful. The book is not a must have for lecture but a must have for homework.

She is not only my favorite teacher I have ever had at SRJC but also one of my favorite people in general. She is nothing but positive and is always there to help you in class or out of class. She has a burning passion for Economics and can help you connect a topic that is considered to be difficult to your life making it easy to understand.

The grade you earn is the grade you'll get. She's tough, but fair and always willing to help. It's amazing how much I've learned in her classes (2 so far, and I'm hoping she teaches other ones soon!). Students love her, and after the first week you'll know why. Exams are tough (it's economics after all) so study hard and attend her study groups!

Had her for Econ 1 & 2, amazing teacher! Econ is a tough subject but she made it do-able and I learned so much from her class, she clearly is passionate about teaching economics! Tests are hard but just attend her lectures and take good notes and do the homework and you'll pass.. oh and she does give extra credit

Professor Conley is AMAZING!! One of the best teachers that I have had. It's an economics course, so it's not easy-- but she makes the material very interesting. Her exams are based off lectures and the book. She gives quizzes that cover the exact same material that you will see on the exams, so you have a chance to be prepared.

TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. She is brilliant and the absolute sweetest. Took her for 1 & 2. No the class is not easy because economics is not an easy subject, but I guarantee you that she will do everything in her power to get you through her class successfully.

Took her in class for Econ1:horrible policy of no office hours day-of quizzes and tests; very unhelpful! In all she wants you to succeed and is less all-over-the-place than other econ teachers. Reading & supplementals are a MUST; don't be afraid to ask questions. Online is straight-forward reading, quiz-like homework, 3 tests. Tough material though

Conley is a great teacher. Very sweet and caring. The subject matter is difficult. She offers extra credit, but it is a little out of ways. Read the chapter before she lectures on it. Show up to class. Pay attention. Watch Videos. Do HW same week she lectures on subject. Tests are tough. I'm taking ECON 2 now and it's even more difficult.

Michelle is an AMAZING Econ teacher! I loved going to her class! She is clear in her lectures, her tests are fairly easy if you at least paid attention in class, and her quizzes are super easy! Amazing teacher!

she is an awesome teacher. Im very glad that god blessed me teacher like her. she is very caring and funny. she is very smart and funny. she is beautiful and her lectures are amazing . she used to say that I am his best student which keeps me motivated to perform better in class. she is very motivating and is a blessing from god to srjc community.

Michelle's a great teacher but if you want to succeed in the class you have to work for it. It is essential to study the textbook and she makes it pretty clear that studying her notes from class isn't enough to do well on tests. She strongly encourages socializing with your classmates and being active on campus.

Economics is an extremely hard class. If you read the chapters, do your homework, study ungodly hours, and show her you're trying, then she'll be willing to work with you. I wouldn't have passed the class had it not been for her. She helped keep me on track for graduation!

I took this class online. At first it took some time to get used to how she was going to teach. Once I got an understanding of the amount of work it was going to take I was able to put forth the energy needed. She does do online video lectures that are very helpful. Also be ready to study, no way to take these exams without studying and understandi

I go to SSU. This is one of the few JC classes that are similar to what you will see at SSU. It's not a 'fluff' class. Real content and really interesting!

She is a an outstanding teacher. She even make videos to reinforce the topics covered in her classes. I hesitated to enroll into both Econ classes the same semester. But, it was the best decision ever. As a non-native speaker, I didn't find Econ1 and 2 to be difficult. So, I bet it'll be much easier for you. A ton of material online, go for it!

Econ with Conley was one of my easiest classes last semester. In order to get an A on the tests and in the class, all I did was read the online textbook, read the PowerPoints she provided, and watched her videos. Other students did not do this and thought that the class was extremely difficult. FYI, am a Biology major and took Econ just for fun.

This class really was not a hard class. I took the macroeconomic class that met twice a week. A lot of students thought it was hard because they didnt read the free textbook thats online. They expected all the test material to come from class and the problem sets. Students also did not watch her videos she posts on canvas. Take her for an A.

Lol, idk why everyone likes to bash Conley in the reviews. She really is not that bad. The best advice for this class is that not everything she tests will be covered in lecture, even in the classes she teaches twice a week. Read the online textbook and watch her videos. The other textbook which costs money is not needed to get an A in the class.

I got an A in the class, but I never really learned anything from the actual class. I had to do a lot of reading the online textbook and her powerpoints, but I thought it was fine. Attending lecture was not really beneficial. I would much rather spend more time on self studying. The exams were not difficult and covered the readings, not lecture

Michelle Conley really cares about her students. I remember one class when she just stopped talking about economics for half the class and instead talked about how us students should save money and invest that money to put it to work. Truly inspirational. After that class I invested 10000 dollars and since that class I have made over 6500 dollars.

This was a tough class, but I really learned a lot from it. Thanks to Conley, I can apply economic principles to my life. Her class did not require a physical hard copy textbook. It was a free online book. The tests covered more stuff from the textbook than from her lectures. 100% multiple choice. There was a firm project and it was easy.

Even though I am a physics major, I wanted to take this class due to interest. I am now considering double majoring or minoring in Econ. This class really got me to view my life economically. I highly recommend taking this class with Conley!

Recently completed econ 1 with Conley. She is super nice and her lectures taught me lots. I also had to read the textbook and her powerpoints outside of class to do well on her tests. They were mostly multiple choice, but there was an easy short answer section. There was a small amount of extra credit. We volunteered at a thanksgiving event.

This class taught me a lot about the economy as a whole. We did lots of supply/demand curves! The tests did require studying! Lots of my classmates did the bare minimum outside of class and did really poorly on tests. They would even cheat on the tests together when the teacher left the classroom and still failed the tests!

While reading these reviews, the main thing that stood out to me was that students did not like her use of Proctorio. That is so funny to me. I took her class in person. While being tested, she would frequently leave the classroom for over ten minutes. Some people would cheat, but it would be pretty obvious if both people got it wrong. Be careful.

Professor Conley is a decent and caring professor. I was really nervous to take her class after reading her reviews, but the class is not that bad. Read the text and listen to lectures, take thorough notes, and you will pass the tests. The tests are straightforward and she tells you exactly what material will be on them.

Conley is truly the best professor. I took her online class and found it to be soooo easy. I just googled all the answers for every test and got 100 percent in her class. I dont know why other students had such a bad experience with her. Maybe its because they cant type fast enough? They should consider taking a typing class (BGN 101).

I dont think any economics professor at the SRJC is great, but Conley is definitely the best. If you study hard it will be evident on test. Students tend to underestimate the difficulty of introduction economics courses, theyre weed out courses. I know other professors assign tons of busy work on top of tests. Not Conley, just tests and easy work.

I hope Conley can change her class's lesson plan. Exams are heavy, instructions can't help much to get high grade in the exams, but I give her a 4 because Conley isn't too bad. She gives out extra credit, and also come to talk to her if you want to improve your grade. Take Onl class if u want to survive, in-person if you want to understand Econ

Good class, I learned a lot about macroeconomics. The tests though... you are given 2 hours to do 62 problems that involve word problems, graphs, and lots of math. She also requires you to use Proctorio to make sure people don't cheat. Needless to say, I took the whole timeframe each test and still managed to survive. 10/10 would take again.

She is amazing and her lectures are very well done and entertaining. The only problem is how her exams are worth your whole grade but her exams problems and quizzes are exactly how she teaches them. Her textbook is free and you would only have to read it for the multiple choice on the exam.

This class requires a lot of self-discipline, but the professor provides helpful resources like free textbooks and practice videos. Use Unstuck ai for study prep, go to office hours, and you'll do well. The exams are challenging, but there's extra credit to boost your grade.

I wouldn't listen to the other reviews; I fully recommend you to take her for econ at the JC. She is one of the best econ teachers, everyone else isn't as good. If you genuinely put in the work, then you'll be able to get an A. However, the majority failed the class due to AI. Also, your grade is made up of exams so watch out (she uses a Proctor).

Professor Conley is a very forgiving and caring professor. She offers numerous opportunities for extra credit, which can significantly boost a grade. Her lectures are fast-paced, and the class is heavily weighted on tests and quizzes, but she provides enough material online to understand the concepts, and the textbook she used is free! I recommend!
