Professor Le is one of my favorite professors ever! He is kind, student-friendly, brilliant, & makes a relatively dry subject interesting and relevant. If you're willing to do a bit of work-it is 100% possible to do great in his class. I cannot say enough about how wonderful of a Prof he is. He gives extra credit and he is so generous with it too.

Professor Le will help you understand economics. He always had thorough presentations for each class and he relates theories to everyday occurrences. Not a lot of homework, and lots of extra credit to help you out.

Oh Man, He is a nice and sweet in class, but when it comes to homeworks and Project presentations which are 2, and each project contains 2 to 3 topics, not to mentions doing the data and graphs. he makes his class so demanding, too much work . The average score in the class was D. His class is a climb in the hill.

Prof Le has good intentions, I am sure of that. HOWEVER, the class is kind of a cluster-cuss. He is a Mr. Magoo and wastes a lot of time. He gives plenty of extra credit to supplement your grade BUT more than half the class was failing anyway. All homework is scantron. LOTS of D2L resources. You have to be extra committed to pass this class.

Like someone said under this comment this teacher has good intentions. But having good intentions; does not lead to be a good professor. He must look at his overall percentage of his class in all these years and understand that < half his class is failing. I passed but I can say he is harsher than my core classes like Chemistry and Calculus.

Hes a bad teacher. He is not at all helpful, when you ask for a study guide he will simply tell you "if you read the whole book you would know the answers" WHO READS THE WHOLE BOOK??? and the part I read and he tests on are different. I want to make a test on the book see if he passes.

I agree that his tests are hard. It requires you to fully understand the materials to answer it right. He knows what he's talking about. I learned quite a lot of things from him. If you put sometimes out to do the EC, you'll be passing with A+ easily even though you don't get around B for HWs & tests. So, 4 your sake, study to learn not only grade.

This is my 2nd semester taking his ECONs 302 & 304. He's so generous with ECs. There are plenty of it for you to do to back up your grade. An A is not hard. Just some lazy dudes keep on whining about it. Being realistic here, if you're taking college classes just to have an unreliable grade shown on your transcript, you'll be miserable for your who

This is a difficult class and will definitely require a lot of time and effort. He says this in the beginning and while almost 50% usually fail I did well. Spend a lot of time on homework because it will help you in the end. Use your study guide! Try to master every topic. Macroeconomics is not an easy topic in general unless you enjoy it.

Worst teacher i've ever taken. i dont recommend taking his classes unless you want to settle for a C or lower. he asks questions on our quizzes and homework that we've never gone over before. he interrupts us while we do our class presentation. i could keep going.

Anyone who says hes a good teacher is either lying or the teacher himself. I thought when he said half his class failed the semester before that they were all whiners and lazy, especially since he offers so much extra credit, but trust me when I say it won't make a difference. I had a great GPA until taking this class. Thanks a lot Mr. Le...

This teacher values, honesty and hard work. If you are honest, not whiny and work to get your grade, you will get it. His homework and exams are hard if you did not read AND study the material. Simple as that. Great teacher overall--a true college teacher (not a easy free ride high school teacher) He wants you to learn something from his class.

I have found that people hate to realize that they are the problem instead of the Professor. I have sat in the same class as some of the people that blame Pro. Le or their bad grade, when in fact they dont turn in work ontime or at all. I too hated the class at first, then I applied myself and got out of it what I put into it. Great Job Prof. LE

I took this class online last year, and and even with the 100 pts of extra credit, I failed. He is so unclear and unhelpful, and about 75% of his students failed. Im retaking it online with another teacher right now and getting a B. It's a tough subject, but Mr. Le makes it impossible for anyone who isnt an econ expert to pass. Take someone else.

Took the online class, its difficult and defiantly not for everyone. Provides answered HW from previous semesters which was very helpful, lets you use note cards on exams. Read Each chapter twice, use the study guide and study hard and you'll do fine. Defiantly more for the self motivated and not for the lazy who do HW 1 hour before its due.

An A in his class is very attainable. His hw assignments and tests don't really reflect what he teaches in class but he gives plenty of extra credit opportunities to keep your grade up. Takes a lot of work but it wasn't too bad. He does tend to be repeatative though and that can be soo boring and kind of annoying.

Took this class online just to take it - I do not know why. My GPA is 3.7 and I barely got a C in this class. Then again, I never tried, didn't study, didn't read. He seems nice though but when I went on campus for orientation/tests, clarity was incomprehensible

I took this class online but ended up with W. You know what the course itself was not too hard but time consuming. If you are a busy person, don't take his class. He has plenty of homework and two big projects. If you have plenty of time and want to learn about Econ, good for you to this class. that is the bottom line.

I am contunually blown away at how stupid this is. Im in the online class, and his homework is VAGUE and he frequently makes confusing mistakes and takes forever to answer questions, or tells you to "be more clear". I will be honest, I am a devoted student, I love economics; but I have cried several times already. Frustrating convoluted impossible

This is honestly the worst teacher i have ever had. class average 46%now...i wanted to be a Business major before i had this class now i am reconsidering that. DO NOT take this class....bottom line....The Homework is unclear and confusing, the tests are just pointless to attempt, and his teachings are as useful as giving a monkey a piece of chalk.

This was a very hard class to take online. The homework and projects were not clear enough for me to really get a grasp on what was wanted. The midterm and final were very hard. I did every assignment/project with A-B avg. but midterm and final dropped my grade considerably. Think twice about this one.

I, like many of the bad reviews here, am a born-slacker. At least for the beginning. This class is a lot of work but you can definitely get an A if you put in the time. He is very helpful and replies quickly, anyone who says otherwise probably just had one bad experience. He is a good Prof, just a tough class.

Got an 99.5% while my friend got a 97% in this class. Never read book. My friend didn't even own a textbook and I wish I didn't buy one. Always did homework at the very last night. Easiest class I ever took. However, this is how I personally feel. 5 As 5 Bs 14C 14D 13Fs. Midterm is almost same as homework. Did not study for final at all.

Highly recommended. I don't know why his rating for easiness is so low but I got C on my midterm and I still got a high A at the end of the semester. As long as you do his assignments, you'll gain an A. Some assignments if you finish early, you get extra points. I took an online class. There's many things to do but it's an easy A.

Would take again

7 hw midterm final. Every point matters. You have to READ the book if you want an A. Took me 6 -8 hours average each hw & study for mid and final. Prof is quick to help and answer all Q's immediately. If your looking for easy A, this is not the class. But A is very attainable. Just READ the book and start early on hw.
