I believe she is a poor teacher and appears all around sloppy when it comes to assigning homework and writing notes. Her practice question solutions are even wrong sometimes. Despite working hard, I feel that I'm getting nothing out of this class and I would advise people thinking of taking her not to.

She encourages discussion board use for help with assignments and such, but there have been many times when she doesn't even respond to questions posted. There's no in-class interaction, which would help so much more. She also makes frequent mistakes when lecturing, leading to some confusion.

The notes she gives in class are often incorrect and inconsistent with the text book. Her homework is time consuming and difficult but very useful in learning the material. The online quizzes she gives, though, are pretty useless and the average on them is somewhere between 50 and 60 percent. I wouldn't recommend her at all.

One of the worst professors (TA) I've ever encountered. I felt like this class was useless and I learned nothing, yet somehow still got an A.

She doesn't take attendance but if you go to class, pay attention, and ask questions. it is not that difficult.

She is a lot better than some other econ professors at Rutgers!

I agree with the last comment. She is very nice and helpful and if you go to class and pay attention you are bound to get a good grade (assuming you are not a total moron).

As critical as this may sound, Professor Emara was the worst professor I have ever had in my entire college experience. Her class lacked any sort of organization. Here tests, which consisted of 3 problems to test 12 chapters of material, was absolutely irrelevant and overlooked all the important topics of macro analysis. She was simply the worst.

Professor was the worst thing that has happened in my educational career. This class is beyond me understanding any of it.

Wouldn't take again

I would have benefited from more lectures to explain concepts. The homework assignments weren't necessarily helpful when it came to taking the midterm exam. Advice: Practice practice the math concepts throughout your text and familiarize yourself quite well. I have felt "on my own" so far so stay self-disciplined in learning the subject matter.

Really enjoyed Dr. Emaras class. At first reading her syllabus she seemed a bit much but she was very understanding and communicative. If you do her work, no reason not to pass exams. Fair grader, wish I could take her again for another class.

The class was definitely not easy and you will have to invest a good amount of time in completing your work and studying for exams. That being said, professor Emara will do her best to help you out if you are trying your best in the class. Some lower grades were removed to help the final grades which was very nice.

I had her for the summer macro class. Besides 4 discussions, the course was through an online program called MyLab. It included the online textbook, assignments, practice problems, quizzes, and tests and we had to buy it for $100. The class was not hard and the professor responds to emails. I recommend you read the syllabus and rubrics carefully.

She has attendance quizzes and in-class practice quizzes every class, so attendance is pretty manadatory as these two things are 30% of your grade. Must pay attentive in lectures to do hw, quizzes, etc. She is great though just pay attention and make sure to do all assignments *set reminders or youll forget

Students will face heavy workload and will put in a lot of work to ace this course. A lot of clarifications needed to complete homeworks. Exams may be difficult to differentiate students based on grades. A lot of content will be covered throughout the course.

I had this Professor for Macroeconomics and she is one of the most thorough Professors I've had thus far. She doesn't just assign readings, power point slides, she gives helpful lectures as well so that you can understand the material. She also keeps her readings current- not outdated which is helpful when trying to learn about the economy.

Challenging macroeconometrics course, but Noha breaks down concepts well. The workload is heavy, so staying engaged and using resources like Unstuck AI are key. Overall, a worthwhile and informative class.

I had a great experience with this professor. I took a causal analysis class with her and she was fantastic at making the material accessible. Her final assignment gave us an opportunity to do our own research. She helped us build out our concept and we ended up getting the paper published with her! Genuinely grateful for Dr. Emara.

Professor Noha is a passionate teacher and an excellent scholar. She makes sure every concept is clear and straightforward. The assignment load is heavy, but you'll find that she has done tremendous work to make the homework manageable. It's certainly a demanding, yet deeply rewarding, learning experience.
