DON'T DO IT. Worse class I ever took. Worse teacher. Boring as heck! Save your money, spare yourself the headaches. Trust me.

Boring class and test are difficult, although he is an intelligent man his teaching style is to the benfit of none

Terrible teacher, extremely boring class. Tests are impossible. Class average on the first two tests were not higher than a 70, both scaled 10+ points. DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY!!!

Had this instructor back around 1982. Very hard, boring, and could not figure out what he was trying to teach! I cannot believe he is still there.

By far the worse professor in the MBA program. I made an AB in the class. He does not make himself available. He portrays a horrible attitude in class. Most students I've talked with feel the same way. Take another professor for economics!

THE WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER TAKEN. This guy is so horrible it's unbelievable. Incredibly boring and uses outdated materials to teach the class. I think he wrote his lesson plan in 1982 and is still using it.

Poor communication skills. Just wants the paycheck. Doesn't worry about trying to help students. One of the worst professors Bryant.

Had him for Health Care Economics in Grad school, he is so confusing and seems like even he is bored to be there teaching and listening to himself. He assigns way too much reading on top of a project and weekly discussions, all of which don't relate.

The jack kerouac of econ teachers. Stream of consciousness of unrelated items leaves you wondering where your $1400 dollars went. I believe I now no less than when I started and I didn't think that was possible. It's a good class if you have no choice

Remember The Wonder Years and Ben Stein as the science teacher? I wonder if Ben took classes from this guy on how to be so... *YAWN*

omg. whoever said he communicates well did NOT know what they were talking about. you can barely understand what he is saying and he uses the wrong words to say what he means. not recommended.

he is the worst teacher ever with the most ineffective teaching methods.. just lets you sit there and copy off overhead.. for 2 hours.. then last hour of class is on a video in which you have to write ATLEAST 2 pages, then answer questions he gives you. do not take this class unless you enjoy teaching yourself!!!

he suuuucks

He is a terrible teacher. You sit and read notes off the overhead and i cant understand a word he says. he speaks in a monotone and the videos, which you watch on thursday and are terrible, are the best thing about the class. As long as you listen, the movies arent hard but they are stupid. Dont take him

Not a good professor even though I did well, grade = B. Find another professor. He likes to hear himself talk. Plays videos and expects you to find what he wants from the video with no direction. By far worst professor at Bryant.

WORST ECON TEACHER EVER. You can't understand what he says, and his writing is illegible. He makes you watch videos to "learn" but you are never tested on these (and these are the only things you may understand). The only good thing about him is that you cannot fail since he is the department head and that would look bad on his part.

He is a very hard teacher. He just comes in and lectures. Very hard to understand and you can barely read anything be writes. The exams are basically impossible and have nothing to do what's said in class.

He is extremely hard and his lectures are very boring and hard to follow

I didn't really like econ to begin with so taking his class wasn't fun. He's really hard to understand and is a tough grader. I emailed him 4 times during the semester for clarification on different things and he responded to 1 and all he said in that email was to check his previous email. I would avoid if you can

There is no need to show up for the class he teaches with a printout directly from the book so you won't miss much. He does not grade reasonably so get on his good side; he also doesn't have an interest in the students, he shows up exactly when class starts and leaves 15 min early without cracking a smile.

I love economics, and I have enjoyed every professor I have had, but I would not recommend taking his class, find a different professor. It is your money being spent get the best education you can with it.

You won't learn much from him so you will have to read the book to understand the topics. He is a good guy, but his class isn't worth taking.

He will rip you apart with grades. You will be tested on things you did not learn in class so read the book.

Mirmirani simply does not care. He frames the class to do as little teaching as possible. 2-3 presentations diminishes lecture time, as well as every class ending 15 minutes early. He's not a good teacher, ideas are presented confusingly and he does not speak clearly. Not worth taking despite sports economics being an interesting topic on paper

Every week i have a paper for this guy, I hate this class beyond words. Absolutely do NOT take this class unless you're into weekly essays

Very rude and does not care to answer questions. A paper due every week. I could not tell you one thing I have learned from him. He reads off some notes in class and that is it. Never connects things to current events or asks questions, just lectures. Grading is very odd, no reasoning.

Watch a 30 minute video each week, then have to write a paper after that for 2 pages. Grading is very strange. Lecture is not good, barely provides notes for students. Mid Term and Final were tough with only 5 or 6 questions that are open response but never spoke on before. Would never take this class again.

This was the worst class I have ever taken. He is not specific about anything. You will not know what your exams will be on. For the midterm, all he said was that the test is on chapters 1-7 and that it is in essay format. No specific help, when you ask questions he gets angry you don't know exactly what he is talking about. Never take this class!

Went to every single class, always did homework, studied etc and I show up for the midterm exam it's all theory based questions and I got a 28. I had an 88 in the class before the test and then now I have a 43 because he didn't agree with my takes on the exam. Reads his slide shows word from word and we copy them down. Learning nothing.

Hes not a good professor my any means. Didnt even know my name by the end of the semester. And a horrible lecture, didnt even get to understand Marco Econ

The worst teacher/Professor I have ever had. Classes consist of boring lectures and him reading slides off the board. I did not learn anything while taking the class and if you try to ask him questions he gets mad at you for not understanding what he's talking about. Test are difficult unless you read the textbook from front to back.

Lectures are incredibly boring. Reads word for word off slides that are copied word for word from textbook. Mumbles through half of what he says. Offers students no direction and has no clear idea for how he grades anything. Exams are nothing like what he drones about in class. Overall terrible professor, take econ from someone who cares.

Super boring, lectures the whole class and is hard to talk to.

Was very boring

He does not care about students. He gives bad feedback and he does not teach. He reads off of slides.

He does not care about you or any questions you have about anything, either in class or on a test. He will give you snarky remarks at any sort of question and reads off slides the entire time. By far the worst economics professor I have ever had and should truly retire.

Extremely boring classes and literally sounds miserable when he talks. Each class consists of a lecture with a 25-30 slide power point that is basically copied from the textbook. If you want to pass this class, take notes before class and read from the textbook. If you want to pass the exams, start studying at least 2 weeks in advance.

I have taken many economics classes, and I have NEVER had a worse econ professor than Professor Mirmirani. He is nice (most of the time) and I don't have an issue with him as a person, but I am extremely disappointed in terms of how he goes about teaching. Classes are mandatory, expect 30+ slide PowerPoints every day, and extremely difficult tests.

This professor is not understanding at all. He is very monotones with his lectures and your grade is solel based on tests. I don't recommend if you are more hands on.

He is not that understanding, and he does not teach at a regular pace he goes too fast.

If you take this class you will have to listen too him ramble and follow a PowerPoint for every class. He doesn't help students in any way and moves at a fast past. His exams don't even reflect every thing on the PowerPoint. If you fail a test your pretty much screwed for his class. If you wanna get a good grade in his class do not take this guy.

Not good at allll, his lectures are a waste of time and you're better off reading the textbook. He prescribes homework for sections you haven't gone over yet and none of his policies are clear. If you ask him about his policies you'll only be more confused because he can't even explain them. He is not tech savvy and is very removed from his student

Classes are so boring with all of the classes being him talking with slides. He is very unapproachable, gives homework that he swears lines up with what is being taught in class but it doesn't line up at all. He always has trouble with his projector and is rude to the staff that come in to fix it. Him and his class is so so boring! don't recommend.

Lecture heavy course with minimal assignments (test heavy). He makes your grade up randomly so you really can't anticipate your grade. Would not recommend taking this professor unless you want the worst experience.

He does not care one bit about his students, reads off of slideshows every class. He often relates the topics to his personal experiences from 30+ years ago that are no longer relevant to today. Would not reccomend this professor if you want to get a good grade.

He teaches a very lecture-heavy class, and his lectures are often boring and fail to keep the class engaged. He also often rambles on about how current economics are affecting him, such as how his retirement money is getting messed up due to current events, so he has to continue to be a teacher for longer. Overall, not an enthusiastic teacher.

Have found the proffer to be openly not care about teaching, will brush over hard concepts and not care. Have also seen him remove people from group projects and not inform them. Sam overall seems like an uninterested unethical professor and wouldn't ever recommend his corse. Instead would urge you to seek out proffer Mohan.

Looks like some things never change. I had this instructor way back in 1982! He was very lecture heavy, no student participation, glossed over topics that it appeared he was less comfortable with and gave impossible test. I cannot believe he is still teaching after 42 years since I graduated from Bryant!

Do not recommend if you're not into lectures. Multiple midterms and one final test + one group project is all you're graded on.

DO NOT take the Mirmirani unless you want to tank your GPA. Tests are graded very harshly and often tests on stuff that is not in the curiculum especially random questions from the Mcgraw hill practice tests. The only thing that will help you get abovve a B for the tests in his class is Mcgraw hill quizzes. DO NOT buy the TEXTBOOK, he doesnt use it

He's the vain of my existence. Hate him

Was one of the worst teachers I have had Bryant so far. Very lecture heavy, but only reading directly from the slides that he has on Canvas. The slides he reads is not even on the exam and your grade only based on the 3 exams and final project. You have to go and speak with him if you want to come even close to passing his class. DO NOT TAKE HIM.

One word to describe this guy is miserable. Easily agitated and aggressive, and you can tell he doesn't want to be here. Definitely an expert in the field but horrible at teaching it. Reads directly from slides but don't study them because they won't be on the test. Can't come back from doing bad on a test because he only puts in like 5 grades.
