As long as you study the material and take notes in class you will be fine. The study guide really helps prepare for the tests. You rarly have to use the book.

Prof. Moore made the class very very easy. If you go to class and print off the notes from WEBCT you will be fine. Take really good notes on the notes from WEBCT in order to make an A. Her tests come directly from those notes and your notes almost item for item.

bring some earplugs

Energetic, You have to pay attention and attend class. She doesn't like slackers

Great teacher. Knows her stuff. On WebCT she has topic outlines for all her lectures- very useful when taking notes in class. She does do extra credit w/ giving 10 unannounced 1 ? quizzes worth .2 each. If you got all 10 correct you have 2 pnts added to your final grade. Tests, for me, were not hard.

Good teacher. She really knows what she's talking about. I'm not very interested in the subject, but she made it a lot more interesting for me. Tests were pretty easy; just go over class notes and study guides. Show up for class and you should be fine.

i had no past economics education and came out well because she tests from the notes...pay attention and learn to graph. She loves the subject so it is not too painful.

Tests straight from the notes and study guides. And two grade points extra credit if you get all the easy in-class 1 question quizzes correct.

Great teacher! She really enjoys teaching this subject. The outlines on WebCT are extremely useful & helpful when taking notes in class. The study guides for the tests are great. They help you know what to expect on the tests. The quizzes are give extra points. But they are unannounced so you have to go to class if you want the extra credit.

lot of info but easy if you just study the notes...book is not needed...can be pretty boring class though

She's one of the best lecturers I've taken. She really knows her stuff, and she can't help that it's a little boring. Her tests are tough so be prepared to study hard.

I took the honors section of this class and it was a lot harder than the regular class most of my friends took. Tests are short answer and essay format, and there is a huge research paper/debate that counts for 25% of your grade. I thought this was going to be my easy class this semester and I definately put the most effort into it.

Easy class, if you go. Attendance is not mandatory, but you'll learn everything from the notes in class. I never looked at the textbook; you probably shouldn't waste your money.

great professor! very interesting and her tests come straight from the notes. and she also gives study guides. i def recommend her!

I took the honors version. Class could be tedious at times, exciting at others. She really loves the material it seems, which made it interesting. Attendance not mandatory, but suggested to get the notes. Very helpful and tests were straightforward. I'm taking her again next semester.

Pretty easy class if you take good notes (make sure you take notes even when she doesn't write something up on the board) and do a thorough job answering the study guide questions. The study guides take a long time but you're guaranteed an "A" if you do them. She really does get excited about what she teaches so that is pretty cool I guess.

Pretty easy class if you put forth some effort and go to class. Extra credit quizzes help a good bit for your final grade.

Myra Moore is one of the best. Very clear, and fair. Not a hard class as long as you go and take good notes. Book is not necessary, but helps. I think she's the only one for 2200, but if you get a chance to take her for something else, I recommend.

She's a good teacher. Very clear with what will be on the test. My main advice: DO THE STUDY GUIDES! They are the test. Also, she gives random pop quizzes that add to your final grade which is nice.

One of the best professors I've had. She really knows her stuff and knows how to convey it to her class. I really enjoyed everything about this class. The book isn't needed, but there are a few questions from the book on every test. As long as you go to class, take notes, and pay attention, you should do fine. But adequate studying is required.

Great teacher! I thoroughly enjoyed her class and although I only got a "B" out of it it was my favorite class of the semester and one of my favorite here at the university. Do the study guides and you should do well on the tests. Extra credit is given as unannounced pop quizzes and if you get them all she adds 2 points to your final grade.

She is one of the best professors at UGA. Absolutely excellent at explaining the material. Second to none.

She is really excited about this class. This class was not too difficult if you actually study. We did not use the book much, if you pay close attention in class, you won't need to buy it.

The class was interesting and I had some prior knowledge of some of the material. Nevertheless the tests were pretty difficult and it was tough to pin down what to focus on studying most, even with the study guide. Just try to be thorough with everything as much as possible. She gives great lectures. Read before going to office her office hrs!

Great teacher, hot as heck.

This class is pretty easy if you go to class and do the study guide. I would buy the student notes as well even if they are the ones from last year. That is what I did and they were exactly the same as this years notes. she writes her tests buy looking at the study guide so the tests went hand in hand with them. She also loves to teach and is nice.

She's very interested in what she teaches. The subject is also fairly interesting if you like learning about a little bit of history and economics. But her tests are tough. Make sure you do the study guides thoroughly and you should do fine.

Not too bad of a class. Don't really have to go, unless you want to take attendance quizzes given every 1-2 weeks. Tests are MC and T/F...cumulative final. Make sure to go through the study guides thoroughly for each test. Material is pretty interesting for the most part. Overall, not too bad of a class...just alot of memorization.

Moore is a GREAT economics teacher. She did a good job of hashing out the complicated subject matter and not getting bogged down in the details, but exploring the general themes and trends. The tests were straight-forward and I normally got a lot out of going to class. Finished with an A and am very happy. Definitely recommend.

I had her for ECON 2200 also, but 4000 is much more difficult. The tests cover a ton of material. There are open book pop quizzes so you have to be in class. She is picky about the project and it counts for a lot of your grade. She is really good at explaining concepts and giving real world examples.

Great teacher! Not a difficult class. You can tell she really likes what she does. Attendance isn't mandatory, but she does give 1 question (usually easy) pop quizzes that help your grade. If you can find old tests they help. The title of the class sounds super boring, but don't let that deter you. I actually enjoyed it, & I learned stuff.

She's one of the best prof. I've ever had! I love this woman! She is amazing. The subject is amazing. Everything is amazing about it! She explains things very well and the tests are easy if you do the study guide. Helps us out by giving us 8 pop quizzes each .25 points added to your final grade. She's very dedicated and the subject is interesting.

I had her for ECON 2200. She is a good teacher and explains things so they make since. The study guides she gives before a test requires a lot of time but if you do the study guide you should make a B or A on the test. Attendance is not required but she gives 8 random pop quizzes each worth an additional .25 pts on your final grade.

SHe knows her stuff. However, the book is completely useless. exams are straight out of the notes, but there are some tricky questions. She is a very nice person, but the class is horrible.

One of the worst professors I've had at UGA. She is a good lecturer, and her tests do come straight from the study guide. But, there is entirely TOO much material on each study guide. By the time you complete it, you have basically retyped all of your notes. In order to do well, you have to memorize EVERYTHING.

If you show up everyday and take notes you will get a B very easily, possibly a low A as well. It was interesting course that teaches you implementations of economic policy and their affects.

If you have an interest in History, you'll love this class! I've learned more in her class than all of my econ courses combined. She is nice and sometimes can go into TOO much detail. The material for each exam can be lengthy and you do have to memorize a lot. Tests are straightforward. If you show up and take notes, it's an easy B or A- course.

Class is very boring. The test questions are worded weirdly and test really random facts. I felt like this class was pointless.

I made an 82 on every test. No matter how hard I studied, each and every one was the same outcome. Gives easy open note quizzes for EC but you have to be there everyday. She does enjoy the subject though.

Take the class for what it's worth. It's the history of US econ, so it will be boring. Don't go to class if you don't want. Just get the student notes and old tests if you can. Easy to get a B+ or A- with these. She sounds like shes crying in class and gets excited for weird econ facts, but she means well. Class kind of sucks, but not too har

Horrendously boring course. It's painful to sit through any way you spin it... So don't sit through it. Get old notes, study them and do the study guides. Tests are the study guides

Horrendously boring class. Painful to sit through any way you spin it... So don't sit through it. Get old notes and do the study guide (which are VERY strong indicators of the test material) to prepare for tests. You'll be perfect. No incentive to come to class. She only does online quizzes outside of class.

Myra was the "Economics Fairy," as she is tiny and gets very excited about graphs and charts and starts dancing around the room every time she gets to show us a graph/chart. But she was a great, fair teacher who cared if her students did well and grasped the material. Go to class and don't miss the Sunday assignments and you'll be fine! Enjoy!

Dr. Moore was an excellent professor. It's the history of the economic development of the United States. It isn't all that exciting. Going to class, reading the book, and doing the study guides will get you a good grade.

Probably one of the most interesting teachers at UGA. The material isn't exciting at all, but she makes you interested in what she is saying by the way she speaks. Tough cookie on the exams though. Take good notes (only way to pass). No extra credit. Quick homework once a week. I definetely recommend her, though!

Don't do it! If it's not required for your major, I'd stay away from this course. Dr. Moore wasn't a terrible professor, but the class itself was boring, and the tests didn't seem to relate to the material at all. If you're not good at memorization, you will not do well in this class. Don't count on theory to carry you--this is a history course.

so far my favorite class at UGA! if you want to learn how the U.S. became the #1 super power of the world take this class!!! myra is awesome, sometimes explains things too slowly, but is very thorough and passionate in her teaching. you don't use the book that much, just go to class and pay attention and write everything she says you'll be fine!

I found this class interesting. Dr. Moore practically spoon feeds you the material by giving you an outline and then writing the notes out on the outline in class. Do the study guide for the tests and you should do really well. I liked her and the class.

Test are extra long, and impossibly hard for no reason. Tries to trip you up every chance she gets. You need to know every single detail and that still might only get you a B-.. She is extremely kind and helpful though.

This was a difficult class that required a lot of reading. I read every sentence of required material, watched every powerpoint presentation and studied for each quiz and test. The teacher was available by email every time I had a question. She was very helpful explaining anything I was unclear on.

I took Dr. Moore's microeconomics class this past summer during Freshco. While the class was challenging, she makes it to where students who want to succeed can succeed. I recommend going to class because many of her examples and hints are helpful for the tests which make up the majority of your grade. Overall, be ready to learn and work hard.

Lots of online quizzes and four tests. The quiz answers you can typically find online. Very straightforward multiple choice tests. No curve because most people usually do fairly well. Interesting material and knowledgeable professor!

I don't understand the bad reviews Dr. Moore has on here; I had a great experience in her class. She explains the material extremely well and gives you everything you need to do well on the tests. There are a lot of in class activities, but if you go to class and do your work they only help your grade. Also, having the textbook is a must.

Moore is a great professor, she makes the material interesting and easy to learn. Your grade rests on 3 exams, 1 final, and mini-quizzes each day that are manageable plus help you prepare for real test questions. If you have questions, she's always open to answering them. But sometimes you have to do some self-learning yourself to grasp everything.

She gives pop quizzes as a way of taking attendance, but there's a percentage that get dropped to allow things like sick days. You HAVE to buy the book. Mini-quizzes are easy-- you should get A's on them. Take notes in class and skim them over before class to get A's on pop quizzes. She gives a lot of grades to help you practice before exams.

Prof Moore cares a lot and is willing to give you the help you need to do well in the class. She explains concepts as simply as she can. That said, the content of this class is extremely monotonous and tricky. I don't recommend taking this class for a fun finance elective unless you plan to be a forex trader or something.
