Her class isn't that hard, and this is coming from a hardcore slacker. She gives you a free 100 points, the final is worth 300 points, and it also replaces your lowest test grade. do the practice quizzes before you take the graded quizzes and you will do fine on those. do the exam reviews, and study whats covered on powerpoints and you will do well

Dr. Doty is definitely known as a hard professor on campus, but she's not as hard as people say she is. The tests are definitely doable, and her grading system makes it plausible to get an okay greade even if youre not great at econ, like me. The weekly quizzes are tough though, and there is no homework grade to bump up your overall grade.

I was ready to drop not just the class but out of the university. Professor Doty was the reason I stayed. She believed in me when no one else did. Economics is hard but she makes it fun and interesting. The projects make everything come together and make sense. She teaches LOTS of students and seems to know each one. I have signed up for another.

While Professor Doty's class was difficult, she truly wants everyone to get an A in her class, which is extremely doable. She cares about what's keeping you from getting there. Get ready to listen and read but just do what she says and you'll get an A :)

Prof Doty truly cares about you and how you perform. Afterall, she is preparing you for the real world of economics. Her syllabus is difficult to follow at first. Stay on track to her 2/2/2 RULE + passing each quiz and you will do well! DO NOT MISS the RULE, you will not pass! One module can take up to 4 hours to complete, be ready! No textbk, thx!

The class really isn't that hard if you put forward the effort. Do not miss assignments as she will not accept late work and tells you that upfront. Although many complained, I really enjoyed the class and did not find that it was as hard as some tried to make it seem. Complete the required assignments and you'll easily pass.

I would take Professor Doty's course again! Follow her 2+2+2 RULE + passing each quiz equals a good grade! Do not miss a rule, or you will fail this course. One module takes 4 hrs, there is No Textbook, she is saving you money!

Professor Doty is an absolutely incredible woman. She is extremely positive and hard working and will always believe in you to succeed. With that being said she does expect you to work hard for her aswell. If you take her please expect to actually learn something. Also please if you take her do all the Quickstart Extra Credits at the beginning!!

Professor Doty defines her expectations for the course right from the beginning. She is fair in her grading and gives great feedback on written assignments. I was apprehensive about taking an economics course but I learned a great deal from her. She does not require students to purchase any materials, which is a bonus. Great professor!

Week 1 of class will be insanely overwhelming. I fully believe she knows what she is talking about, however her admittedly unacademic background does not equate to a professor who is easy to learn from. It is very important to follow her overly specific directions. I think she over-complicates things, but you can learn a lot. Bonus: No book to buy.

Her syllabus is the guidebook for the course. She is always available if you need help or clarification. Follow the 2+2+2 Rule and you will pass. She is very particular on how she wants things done but don't feel it's as complicated as most make it seem. Learned a lot in her class and thoroughly enjoyed the content.

She is a great professor and person, but tends to overdo it with information during lectures and sometimes goes on tangents over something you have no idea about. Lots of powerpoint/pdf slides that contain most info you need for the class. A good amount of extra credit assignments are given every week and are due by Friday midnight.

Absolutely fantastic professor. As long as you get your 40 points each week (a mix of online homework, attendance, and/or taking the quiz) and do your QuickStart, a good grade is very achievable in this class. Makes herself extremely available and genuinely wants students to do well in her class! Take this professor if you can!!!

GO TO CLASS!! Dont miss class at all if possible, the attendance grade in the end is very heavy and worth around 10 total class points so go, even if you're tired! She is a very caring and charismatic professor that loves when someone asks a question in class and gives a lot of extra points to give a buffer grade incase you fall behind.

This teacher is a nice person and you can tell she cares about you. But she is a little disconnected from the work she gives. I had several times where she would post big assignments such as an essay, on a Friday and due later that day. Overall, the class was ok, but you will be doing many many hours of reading and studying to make a decent grade.

This class was an amazing learning experience. It's not hard to make a good grade in the class. Just come to lectures and study for a little and you will pass. DO THE EXTRA CREDIT! That saved me, since I didn't do so good on the tests.
