good professor
Horrible prof. Very boring. Unfair. Hard test, dumb projects.
very nice teacher, very fair, his tests are not hard at all.
Nice guy, little boring, hard exams. However, he's easy on final grade
Very good professor, but his tests are tricky - have to work hard in his class.

Clear and concise lecturer, stay on top of your work b/c there is a lot of it for this course. I would recommend as Dr. G knows marketing inside out.
In a word, AWESOME. Knowledgeable, caring, presents excellent examples, bright, good discussions in class.
one of the biggest dissapointments in Pace; complete waste of time.
worst Proffesor Ever. His test were completly unfair, they are designed to trick the student not test his knowledge.
Dr. G is the man! Knows his stuff. You will leave this class able to sound intelligent even if you are not!
He is very knowledgeable, no question about that, his classes are interesting, BUT 1) hard tests especially his numerious essay questions, 2) tough grader 3) his are not very systematic and not very connected to the book, which makes it harder to study...
Not clear and systematic
Great class & teacher. Difficult tests and heavy course work (1hr presentation & 25p papaer ina summer class?) Tons of work for a B and I have a 3.8 GPA so I know its not me. Wouldn't return e-mails to discuss grading after final.
What a wonderful professor! Generally interested in his students.It's been 4 years since i graduated and i've taken what he's taught me in marketing research and have applied it in my years at a syndicated research house and now am a sr. research analyst.
he's a sweetheart!!!!
he is very hard. his exams are so hard taht i studied and got a c+ and i'm an A student.
he's very nice and his lectures are interesting.. very easy projects. his exams are easy too if u like essay questions.. he tells u what to study, so that's good.
he's a good professor, no doubt about it but he is also a hard grader...
EXCELLENT TEACHER! VERY EASY-GOING AND HELPFUL! DO ALL YOUR WORK AND YOU WILL BE FINE! TAKE HIM, HE'S THE BEST!
He's a hard prof. but if you do your work, his class is worth all of that. You get the grade you deserve and he's very helpful. His discussions are also interesting, so the class isn't stuck learning just from the book.
I really enjoyed this class. I had never taken a marketing course before and learned a lot. Dr. G was interesting and made the lectures fun. If you do the work you'll do well in this class. I highly recommend this professor.
Dr. G is really knowledgable in his field. His classes are very interesting and all of his lessons are useful in life. If i hadn't declared my major before taking this class, I would definately become a marketing major. If you want learn something useful take Dr. G.
Dr. G really is wonderful. He is very knowledgable and made class very interesting and fun. I learned so much. His tests are hard only if you do not study but he always tells you what will be on them. I highly recommend him!
Dr.G is great! Very nice guy! We had a great time in London & Brussels. Haven't gotten my grades so don't know if he grades hard but I think he does. Sandler was the other prof for this class and he sucks - asks dumb questions (yeah I know there are no "dumb" questions) Wish only Dr. G went with us.
Who left those 3 identical ratings?? You would be killing yourself with tons of work. Good for you if you are Mkt mayor, if not....
The best marketing professor at Pace.
Dr. G is a great teacher. Very knowledgable abt the subj. matter and makes the class very interesting. Do all your work and you'll do fine.
Dr.G is very knowledgable; makes the class intersting with quests and cases. fair grader. I learnt alot of staff from him. But you gotta study hard...
he is nice and curves like crazy gotta love this mean, he is fun and relaxed and tests are as hard as hell but go on the fact that he curves alotttt
There's a lot of material to cover, and he expects you to know it. His exams are tough, and true he does curve, but don't rely on it.
Take during the summer. Take good notes. Exams are mutli-choice and essay, many options to choose from for the essay,use buzz words for essay. Don't buy the textbook if you get the study guide for the textbook. I never opened the textbook. The termpaper & presentation was the most time consuming. He was easier on us cus of the summer. I got an A.
Very simple, straight to the point exams, he likes it when you write alot on the 'part 2' of the exams. He is very interesting and non-imposing which makes the subject matter easier to learn and class very enjoyable. TAKE HIM!
His exam was pretty tough.Lays too much importance on class participation while not having anything to make students interact.Its better to take 4 exams of 3 chaps each rather than 2 exams of 10 chaps each which one can never finish.Pretty good at helping and well versed with the subject.But too much work.If not a mktg major,consider other prof.
AWSOME teacher--VERY knowledeable...I learned SO MUCH in this class...really gets you interested in marketing and how it works. One of the best professors I had at Pace!! If you get the chance, DEFINATELY TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!
This class is way too time consuming.Case studies need to be handed in *every* week and the term ends with a 1/2-hr presentation (that takes about a month and a half to prepare). His exams are quite difficult. He's also rude to students sometimes.
A brillian teacher with a wealth of experience under his belt. If you want to learn about marketing, Dr. G. is the right teacher to take it with. He brings in contemporary materials and is very current in the field. I fell in love with marketing after this class.
He is definitely a good professor, who made the class interesting. However, the course load is kind of heavy, so don't take this course in the summer. I got overwhelmed with all the reading and the group project I had to do.
Professor G. tries to make the class less ennoying without success , his ton of voice is low an monotonous. And I don't think that he is a fair grader. If you fail to the mid-term exam you're done!!! whatever efort you put in the final will useless , he already has his idea of you .
He grades very badly. All your work does not matter to him. He's boring. Very bad professor. Doesn't know what he is teaching. I expected A- and I got B-.
The man knows marketing. I took this class and not only did I learn marketing, but other facets of the business world as well. I got an A, but I had to put in the work. Took him in the summer, 2 exams, 1 presentation, paper, and case studies. The work load may scare you a bit, but it's not tough. You really actually will learn from him. Nice guy al
Dr G is so smart/witty that will throw you for a loop. Bright, energetic and knows his material though does glorify WalMart every chance he can get. Lots of reading for class (he will call on you!), hw, case studies, group project, midterm and final. Tons of work but interesting topics. Will often kindly debate you, just to be devil's advocate.
His knowledge of marketing is unsurpassed. His tests are of mediocre difficulty. But if you don't read the text chapters, you won't do well. Grades kind of tough on the cases, but write a lot and you'll do fine. Places much importance on the project, so make sure its good. Does a great job of encouraging discussion. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
He's really a marketing guy. You can learn a lot of things from him. Highly recommend this prof..
Dr. G is an amazing professor who knows his stuff. Pay attention in class and take notes and you will learn more than you can imagine. Exams are very detailed and cover EVERYTHING so make sure you follow in class and read the text. He makes lectures fun and interested. I would definitely take his course again and HIGHLY recommend it to others.
He is very good. He teaches you and listens to you and teaches you again. He is serious about teaching
This class is ridiculous. Took it over the summer thinking it would be manageable. Prof. expressed how he gives slack in the summer. In the 6 weeks, there is a midterm, final, case studies due almost every week, and a mkting presentation/paper. Do not take this class if you want to have a life outside of class and still not do as expected.
who ever wrote that last comment is a moron. summer was toned down but prof. was very fair with grades. the cases and group project were not that bad at all just do not BS him and if you cant study for a midterm or final then you should not be in grad. school. this class is far from "having no life"...give me a break!
Great professor but extensive amt of material. Only one issue the exams are based on text & notes but the class notes dont exactly match the text ex. 6 steps in text are expressed as 4 steps in class-so it gets confusing to where to study from. So I ended up studying the whole chapters and notes. YeaYea I know it college but a little dir helps.
Boring teacher, doesn't explain himself.
Great professor. You will learn a lot. This is not a easy class so be prepared to work. This is college.
terrible professor! not clear lectures. be prepared for tons of homework study cases, midterm and final.even if you do well in class he will lower your grade. he teaches this mba class like it's career concentration class. AVOID HIM!!!
I took it as a summer online course. it's alot of workload for a summer course. 1 midterm, group project, 1 case study and every week you had to post essay (very time consuming) answers to questions he posted.
Waste of money & time. You have to read the chapters (which are long) & then post online twice a week. Half the students waited till the end of the week and copied the other students who posted earlier. The professor took a very long time to grade any of the work so you had no idea how you were doing until you got your grade
I also took this as an online class. The Prof structured this class as if to see how many chapters you could possibly read in 6 weeks. Would have been much better if he concentrated on a few key topics. Otherwise, I felt like I did not learn a thing. Agreed with the below post; Prof did take quite a while to grade the indivdual cases and posts
Taking travel class with him and he's great. A lot of work for the class but the stuff he taught you is important. Even though some people say they take summer course with him and got a lot of work, that's how sumemr courses are. You have less time but need to fit all the work. Prof. is very helpful.
He is a great thinking professor, he will engage in discussion, encourages class participation and is a hard grader, but this one is you really want to learn he is the man to go to.
A great professor, who does a fantastic job of engaging the class. He makes marketing fun. The tests aren't hard, but they're not exactly a cakewalk either. The group project he gives is long and pretty difficult. Good professor, good guy. Just be prepared to work.
Took it online in the summer. Teacher gave so much work I had anxiety attacks over trying to read all of the chapters assigned, write papers, and take a midterm in a short amount of time. Didn't have time to really absorb what I read. Received midterm and paper grades without answers so have no idea what I got wrong.
The online course is unorganized with an unbalanced workload, and he gives no feedback. Worst online course I have ever taken. He grades haphazardly, doesn't comment and refuses to communicate. I learned nothing from him in the online course...zip! Perspective: 'A' student all the way 'B' in his course and I still don't know why. Don't take him.
Class was online and I may forever be turned off from online courses because of him. I worked very hard and kept up with the extensive workload and still received a grade below expectations. His communication was terrible, was a struggle to get feedback and wouldn't accept a face-to-face to discuss my grades. Stay away if possible!
this professor is useless!!! don't ever take him. There is no way you can understand how he grates you. He will not discuss your grade with you!! AVOID HIM
THE WORST. Extremely unhelpful, not clear, and THEN does not discuss final grade with you. Sent emails asking why I got a certain grade and he never responded. Unprofessional.
he's a great guy, gives a lot of work for an intro to marketing class but you learn a lot offers extra credit opportunities tests are very long but fair, he tells you everything that will be on it nothing i couldn't handle!
He is not a bad teacher, but i felt like i had to teach myself, and the material is very extensive. Tests are also very hard, he needs to give more guidance or a study guide for tests, at least be specific on whether tests are based on notes or to study from book. Would i take this class again, probably not.
Dr. G is a really nice guy. He's very chill and extremely helpful whenever you need him. The class overall wasn't that easy--tests were pretty hard but he gives a bunch of easy stuff to keep your grade good. Great guy though, and would definitely take again.
Dr. G is really passionate about his class and takes his work very serious. So do not mess up with him also don't ever skip class because he will remember your name. Covers detailed information and describes what will be on the final. Midterms and final are extensive as well as homework, sometimes he is not specific about grading criteria
He does NOT respond to emails. Does not provide any feedback with regards to grading, or for that matter does not provide a rubric. He will smile and says that he will take care of it, and do not worry,but he NEVER follows up! Not sure why he is still here.
For an accelerated online class, I was prepared for a heavy work load but this professor did a HORRIBLE job of spreading out the weekly assignments. He provided absolutely no feedback on anything and took days to ever respond back. He assigned an 'auto-graded' essay that I ended up getting zero credit for after spending 2-3 hours working on it.
Definitely the worst experience I have ever had with a professor. Grades felt like he picked them out of a hat, work was never ending. After completing the course I feel like I have learned nothing about marketing due to the fast pace at which the course is laid out. Provides no feedback and is almost impossible to reach. Good luck taking him.
Professor is tough grader but eventually it helps you to land a good job in future. I learned a lot in this class.
He is a great professor, very caring and outgoing explains everything well
Okay, so normally I don't really get C's like ever so this is a first for me. I'll say his class was honestly not that bad. You should be able to do good in his class as long as your consistently getting your Connect assignments done. If you have an issue with the cases then just email him and he will let you redo them. This was where I went wrong.
The professor is caring and explains the material well. Assignments are manageable, and tests are fair if you put in the work. unstuck ai was a helpful study tool.
very knowledgable and definitely learned the most I have from his class. However theres a lot of outside of class work and hes a tough grader, sometimes feels like he picks and chooses whats right and wrong. I did learn a lot but its a tough class
