He is ok...you have to study for his Exams. He explains things good

He explains things well but he's not an easy professor. He gives three 40 multiple choice exams and only 3 point curves. The questions are very tricky but study hard and you'll do well.

TWO MIDTERMS AND A FINAL, LIKES TO DRAW ALOT DURING LECTURES, READ THE BOOK ALOT IN ORDER TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS, THE QUESTIONS ARE VERY TRICKY, THINK OF TAKING SOMEONE ELSE

He is a great professor. He takes his time teaching the lesson to his students. He is funny professor. He give two midterms and a final. The exams are okay along as you read the material and takes his notes.

tricky questions.

he is ok, the materials are not that hard thought, at least he is better Wymbs

I didn't have his class but i watched his lectures. He was a great teacher. He related everything to real world examples. REally interesting. Emphasized on important points. Very highly recommend him!

He can explain Economics more clearly in an interesting manner than anyone else.

One of the best eco Profs out there. Knows his stuff and makes it interesting. A guy actually willing to teach. Other reviews are helpful too.

if you have probs understanding the book he explains things very well, and if you understand the book then you don't have to show up to class. I showed up to half the lectures and thoroughly read the book. I got an A

he a bush-taker

Really good as long as you read the book, his lectures clear up what the book talks about.

Great Professor! Funny and gives real life examples to elucidate the eco theories! gives curves on exams!

He is the best professor for economics. Explains everything very clearly by drawing graphs and explains everything on the graph which is essential for understanding microeconomics.

He's a good easy going professor

I never went to class or recitation, went only for the 2 tests and the final and got an A. BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!! No Attendance Required

This guy is the best. Take him and learn lots. Explains from politics to how to make money. for real. He is a down to erath guy. Exams are difficult have to be in class to understand. He will prepare you for life.

The lectures are interesting and really helpful. Study and you'll do fine on the exams.

So far, Joyce is the best teacher in Baurch College. He takes time to explain lessons that are complicated, and has the insight to teach them in a manner that is easy to grasp.

He is a good teacher but goes a little too fast. I like the way he teaches because it is understandable all you have to do is read the chapters to know whats going on. He's not so boring and likes to make jokes. He's a great professor and I greatly recommend him.

Lets put it like this eco is not the easiest class in the world but out of all the barch professor he makes it the easiest to understand and his test are fairly easy if you review recitation quizzez and study

He does move pretty fast but if youre reading the textbook how ur supposed to be there shouldnt be a problem.Very good teacher,knows what he is teaching about.Pretty good to look at too...LOL!

for a non personal lecture style class, this is about as good as it gets, since he really does explain the material well. I know he says that you need to read the book, but actually, he pretty much covers the topics well in class, you will only need to read certain things that he emphasizes in class

While being a student in Kleinberg's class, I've studied through Joyce's online video lectures. He is a great professor. Very clear, much more knowledgeble than Kleinberg. Brings up a lot of real life examples. Thanks to him and the book, this course came really easy. Take him - you won't regret it!

Joyce is the best teacher to learn from for economics he put it in simple terms and her curves like crazy i dont know what that boy ahead of me talking about complaining he failed because he failed the final wow hello the final was worth half of your whole grade and on top of that he curved the fina

I'd rarely give reviews on teacher but his teaching skills is exceptional in his department/this school. Overall he is a good teacher , a little strict in the final grade (as in he won't give you an F to retake the class unless you really reall really deserve it) overall a great teacher.

JOYCE IS PROBABLY THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER. I LOVED TAKING HIS CLASS. HE MADE ECO SEEM SO MUCH CLEARER AND INTERESTING THAN IT REALLY IS. I WOULD DEFINITELY TAKE A CLASS WITH HIM AGAIN.

all u have 2 do it ur part. he will give u 110% all the time. im not a Boston fan but he's the best there is

This professor is perhaps the best one at Baruch. I would definitely take him for any classes he offers. I personally liked his method of teaching and his appearance. Joyce is the best !!!!!

He is a great professor. He knows how to teach. You must read all the chapters he assigned. The exams are not that hard if you read them. If you really want to learn about economic, you should take him. He is a fair grader.

Best eco prof. in the school. Has great teaching skills and methods. TAKE HIM OVER ANYONE ELSE. P.S. Attendance is voluntary

Excellent teachers, understands what college should be like. Only downside is hes a Red Sox fan...

Best professor @ Baruch. You have to be in class to know what is about. Read and do the study guide. HArd work but you will actually learn stuff. Not like the others lazy prof. that read from powerpoint slides. GO RED SOX!

Dont take anyone else for ECO, Joyce is the best. He is enthusiastic, cares for students, makes it interesting. HE IS AWESOME! no attendance policy, recitations are not mendatory, 2 midterms and a final.

This man knows how to teach, he also curves the exams.

THIS MAN IS AMZINGGGGGGGGGG!!!! Before taking his class I despised eco and thought it was extremely difficult and boring. Now I love it! Joyce is very thorough, engages you in the discussion, clear, meticuluous. He curves the exams, they are very atr8 forward and by the book. He's absolutely excellent.

You have to read the book and do the study guide questions before the tests. Combine that with listening in class and the A is very attainable. Study guide is a must, and the questions are similar to the tests... he curves a little bit, and the tests are fair and straightforward. I recommend him.

This is definitely the best economics teacher there is...he explains everything so well to the point where everyone understands it..he really wants to see people do well...if u pay attention in class and do the study guide there is no reason why you shouldnt get an A-/A

Very good. It's true what others are saying about him. Helpful, funny, and up to date. good guy, answers your questions. Take him. He curves the grades. And at the end of the semester, he gives you a little points up if you're improving or were doing bad at the beginning of the semester.

this guy rocks, sure you have to bust your bee-hind, and study, but he makes it worth your while. Even for non eco driven students this class becomes anything but a nightmare.

he is great! take him! his exams are a little bit trick but do the study guide will help

ya dont expect to come to class then score on the test coz that ain't happening believe me---study hard, read the ch, study guide is helpful. However, tests are hard and that screwed me over and i did put in a lot of time.ya he's hot! every1 admits that hes the best eco teacher

One of the best Professors I've ever had. He is so clear and his ppt slides are so thoroughly written that you just cant complain. He will always stop to answer questions. He truly cares for his students and wants them to do well. Gives 100% and you cant ask for more.

Best Prof. I ever had. I had failed this class the first time I took it, but with him it was more interesting and easier to understand. Just do your job and you will do fine!!

I had him a couple of semesters ago but I still can not help letting you know how great he is. His lectures were the highlight of my days!! He is just so smart, professional and a great professor. TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM.

The best!!!

Prof is the best, makes the class ez. Do the reading b4 class so when u get 2 class u no wats going on. 2 midterms, and 1 final. Explains things until you understand it, gives good examples. Available outside class. Had no interest in the class prior & now I love it. Recitation helps, but not necessary. Use study guide and his ?'s on blackboard.

He is the best economics professor ever! He's very funny and gives easy examples to help you understand the material. Economics is a hard subject and he makes it easy and fun to learn.

excellent professor! hes the best guy for micro economics because he makes the subject so interesting and makes you want to learn. going into the class i thought it was going to be my worse class but he made me want to learn. thanks so much joyce! tests are a bit hard but you have to STUDY the books and go to class!

I see no reason you shouldnt get an A in this class. He is extremely organized, he tells you what you need to know, and makes the tests fair. No he wont give you the answers, and no you cant just get an A for breathing, but you CAN get an A if you read the book and do the study guide questions. I loved this class, Professor Joyce is the man.

YOU WILL LEARN & AT THE SAME TIME ENJOY BEING IN HIS CLASS. REALLY A GREAT PROF . I RECOMMED ANYONE TO TAKE HIS CLASS

he actually revived my interest in economics, he's a 'must take' if it is your 1st eco class. very clear, points out important things which makes it easier for students to study when its exam time. 2 midterms 1 final, great teacher overall i decided to minor in economics thanks to him, way to go prof! *****

Very good with the lectures. He draws charts on the projector, uses PP, and goes over many examples. Very helpful. A lot of material so you have to study but he makes it interesting. The study guide helps. Joyce is the man!

I had Joyce in Fall 1998. His tests were challenging and I still remember the infamous final he gave. Great lectures, stimulating applications of economic concepts and I went to every session. In fact, I use his video and audio lectures, my sister had him also a year ago, for my economics class in NYU graduate school. Very professional.

The man... Expect hard work but he knows how to explain things. I'm working in JP MOrgan Chase now. I'm in private banking and he is the only professor I remmenber. If you don't take him you are losing your money and time. MUST TAKE. Work hard with him otherwise expect a +C. And be ready to work for Toys R Us in operations.

He can move way too fast even if you have read the chapter, it can be very confusing especially when you have not taken this class RIGHT after Macro even though they are different. He knows what he is doing though. He is the best and only professor that should be teaching ANY and ALL Eco classes. Highly recommended, GO to recitation! Makes a diff.!

He told us to go to come here and rate him today in class. I wanted to learn in the class at first, but as we moved along, I just wanted to get through it! He's a very good Prof...knows his stuff but he went too fast throughout the whole semester. Sit in the front!!! That's where you going to learn. Unfortunately I did not do that. And BE ACTIVE!

He is the best prof ever!!!!!!! He taught in a way that makes you understand the material and he only give three test and one final. His class is never boring and he also relate the material to the real world makes you understand more... take him you will never regret

Excellent Prof!! Very enthusiastic! This guy obviously loves economics. Lectures are concise. Attendance is not mandatory and he'd rather you not come if you don't want to be there. Easy A if you do the work and show up. Gives generous curves on tests as he wants everyone to do well. If you don't do well in his class its because you don't try. A++

Prof. Joyce knows his stuff. Seems that at times, the class is rushed because he feels the need to squeeze in as many chapters as possible, but if you've read the chapters, you should have no problem. Study from the study guide (very helpful on exams) and go to the recitation classes and you shouldn't have a problem. He is a must-take!

this guy is a great person. exams are fair as well as the curves take joyce if you want to learn and have a great time. read the book and study the study guide very helpful, as well as his teaching assisstant Aram. two great guys.

Nice guy!! Read the txt and you'll do fine!!

One of the best Economic Prof. in Baruch! Economics isn't something u can understand and learn just by reading the book, but I defintely learned a lot from him by going to his classes. He taught the material really well, there were a few classes that were boring. Studied really hard for each exam, gave me an A. Highly recommended!!

Excellent Professor. Do the readings before class and he will do the rest when you go to class. Makes everything simple to understand. Recitation was optional, but go if you are still having trouble understanding. Curves Exams. With normal effort, easy A.

He is a very nice professor, well organized and you will learn a lot. The recitations are very helpful. Of course you will need to read the textbook to understand everything. His exams(mc) are fair. highly recommended.

He is a really smart person and knows wat he is talking about...its not an easy class but if u read the chapters n use the study guide u will do fine...its easy to get at least a B if u put effort into it...u def learn a lot in this class n im glad i took him!

Great professor. Very knowledgable in the field of economics. Attendance isn't mandatory but it helps a lot at explaining the material. 3 exams and the final, he'll tell you what to study. BUY THE STUDY GUIDE, it helps tremendously.

Def the best in Baruch.One of those profs that doesnt depend in the pp,but he gives u LIVE examples so u will understand the material.Very interested in student's progress,curves exams,3 midterms,1 final,mc.Eco is not easy,if you dont study what do u expect,its not theatre people,The book is helpful but the real help comes from him,bythway HOT!!!

GREAT professor! Wanted to take him for Eco 1002 but hes not teaching it :( really good at teaching and explaining! GET THE STUDY GUIDE! gets his problems from there, well most of them! tells you what problem he "likes" from the study guide :) some question might be hard but not if you go over the notes and the study guide! Take his class!!!

Prof Joyce is a very smart and knowledgeable professor. He makes the subject so much more interesting. He does his best to explain everything to you in a simple way. his exam are not hard, They are fair if you study. Attendance is not required, but def. should attend his lectures. His class was very interesting. I enjoyed it. Take him.

He is a Harvard level prof. for the price of Baruch! Unfortunately, he doesn’t teach in spring, but he’s worth of waiting. I’m glad I did. Beside Micro he teaches critical thinking and opens our eyes on how economic world is working. Study guide is as important as the book itself. The reading the chapters before class is A MUST!

Best professor at Baruch!! Cares a lot about the students without the pressure of making attendance mandatory. You have to study and you have to take the course serious but he makes it as relevant to your life and as interesting as possible. He's extremely smart and will make you become interested in economy.

Wonderful class. Doesn't take attendance for lectures but are recommended. Recitations are optional. Makes microeconomics very simple. Study guide a plus. Definitely take him.

I'm OBSESSED with him. He's such an amazing teacher. I'm upset that he only teaches micro for undergrads. If you're looking for a good teacher, a good grade, and not working too hard for it, take Joyce! He doesn't take attendance, but i valued all his lessons and only missed 1. I never read the texbook, but i did buy the review book he suggested...

He's passion for Eco is contagious! If he taught racket science, I’d still take his class not because I like Engineering or I’m a bit interested in Physics, because he’s an amazing teacher that can teach anything, moreover makes you like the subject and study with all your might! I took this class just to get in Zic but ended up loving Economics

He is a really great professor. You should go to class regardless of the fact that he doesn't take attendence because it will really help you understand the subject matter and do well on the exams. You don't need the textbook, just the review book.

Without a doubt he's very passionate about economics. That's what makes him a great professor. Although he doesn't take attendance, I highly reccommend you go & to his recitation classes. His tests are kind of hard, but most of it are similar to the study guide. He also recycles many of the questions from past midterms to the final.

I love this man!!! He is the sweetest person, you can go to him ANYTIME for help, not that you will need any. He explains everything perfectly and clearly. You don't need to buy the textbook, but buy the review book, and do the MC questions from that for studying! One of the greatest classes I have ever taken.

Never went to class. Just studied for 2 days from the text and review book right before each exam. Aced both. He curves ALOT. Take this prof if you want a an easy A

Awesome!

Great professor

This guy is by far the best professor I've had at Baruch. I changed my major because of him. Very passionate about the subject and gets the class engaged. Take him and go to class it'll be worth your time.

Honestly theres no attendance but this guy teaches so well you'll want to come to class - he does go a little fast, but just pay attention, read the book, and use the study guide and you'll be alright. Take good notes, and if that doesnt help you get that A the curve might - Prof Joyce for the win !

Prof.Joyce is Excellent. I love his teaching style. He will let you understand what is ECO about and make you fell in love with ECO course.

I took him 2x.i encourage you to read the textbook and do the study guide if not youre lost. Pay attention in class b/c it teaches and gives you an easier way to understand the material.Joyce is an awesome teacher he loves the subject and def shows it talk to him if u need to understand the subject more he'll def help you until u understand.

Amazing professor. He was really enthusiastic and did his best to make everything clear. A+!

Professor Joyce is one of the best teachers at Baruch College. He is very helpful and enthusiastic, which makes a big difference in a technical class like microeconomics. He is always available for questions and his tests are very clear. I would highly recommend him for anyone who is taking eco 1001.

Great Professor. However you do have to do your reading, and use the study guide because it is extremely helpful. Makes the subject somewhat interesting!

I became greatful of his class when another professor came in and substituted for him. He is extremely fair. His class is easy if you pay attention in class, read the text and do the workbook. He also curves every exam to make everything fair, just incase if some questions was unfair...he truly cares about all the kids in his lecture hall.

He is very passionate about what he teaches, and thats why we learn. After taking his class, everything makes sense. Why gas prices are so high, why we tax inelastic goods. He is amazing. Work is required to get an A, but his lectures drop a lot of hints for the test.

He is everything you could want in a professor.He makes the Class very interesting and i feel that i really learned a lot.he is just so cool, you will enjoy the class.Take him.

This professor was hard for me in the beginning but for the final it was a summation of everything. 3 midterms worth 60% and the final 40%. There is always a curve. He seriously opened up my mind more in terms of the economy and makes your life full of his teachings. EXCELLENT PROFESSOR AND INTELLECTUAL PERSON

Passionate cool guy.Curve every test.tests all MCs.Overall u cannot demand a better prof than him just as all great things other ppl said.The only frustrating thing i felt was that sumtimes he went over chapters tooo fast in order to catch the test date.He should have given himself more adequate time for the exam.Overall COOL person take him.

Great class, great professor, attendance only mandatory if you average below a 70. Recitation not mandatory, and he curves exams A LOT - exams make up 100% of the grade. You can pass without a textbook if you're economics-savvy but really important to have at least the workbook in order to do well.

He is a very smart and interesting professor. He uses examples from reality and applies it using economics. The textbook was very easy to understand. As long as you read the book, you should do fine in the exams. The only thing class will do is show you how to solve the problems on the test.

This isn't a hard class but you must read the textbook to get a good grade on the four exams (including the final, which is cumulative). He curves every test at least 3 points which helps alot. The catch is that he will NOT round up your grade. For example, an 89.5 is a B+ not an A-. The class is very interesting but there are times where he rushes

He is really great.Every class was interesting, and I enjoyed each one.He doesn't just teach you the topic but applies it to current events.But you should really read the chapter before class to prepare for the tests.The tests are m/c, and not easy but manageable.He gives you the opportunity to get an A.Take him, he will be so worth it.Use workbook

Great!!!!!! Great!!!!!!Great!!!!!!Take him!!!

GREAT PROFESSOR! TEACHES VERY WELL, GOT AN A IN THE CLASS. STUDY GUIDE IS KEY TO STUDYING AND USE QUIZZES AS WELL. TAKE HIM, IT'S A GREAT CLASS

an good prof overall. i didnt do as well as i have hoped but it was my fault for never going to class or recitation. he teaches really well and is crystal clear. take him

very helpful professor, you have options with this guy either read the book and dont show up, or show up take good notes and ull get an easy b+. if you want an a then show up and read the book its not that time consuming and he makes it interesting great prof i got an A

You heard em folks, Professor Joyce is probably the best Micro-Economics professor is this entire school. He tells you specifically how to study for his exams, and even gives you power point practice questions to help you study.

I wish i could hav him teach every single one of my classes. Word of advice, get the study guide. You'd be missing a great oppurtunity if you dont take him.

He is the best professor at Baruch! He teaches with energy and passion. He goes over real life examples in class and reinforces the material until you understand it. Attendance is not required if you score over a 70. The study guides definitely help. I wish I had him for every economic class.

best eco prof, explain everything clearly. He actually cares about if the students do well or not. Never missed a class even though attendance is not taken. No need to buy book, just buy the study guide and listen to his lecture.

great prof, don't not miss. He is so helpful and explain the material so well. You will have to be stupid if you can't do well in his class.

Simply outstanding.

I LOVE PROFESSOR JOYCE!!!! HE'S the sweetest, kindest, most helpful, smart, interesting professor to teach microeconomics. Very interesting class and will open your eyes to a lot of economic issues. JUST AMAZING! One of a kind.

Encourages participation in a large 400-500 class. Cares about students(asked how we were doing) tricky questions on exam.

Professor Joyce is extremely talented at teaching a large lecture course. It did not feel like there were 300-400 students in the class. Material was presented in a way that was enjoyable and insightful. Highly recommended.

He does an good job at teaching a lecture. However, he goes over the material too fast! He needs to chill! I couldn't understand what he was doing bc he was too fast. I got an A, but that's bc I studied on my own most of the time.Reading the textbook & study guide is vital to getting a good grade.He's available outsideof class though,which is good

Absolutely a MUST to take. Do not miss out on the opportunity! Extremely interesting, very fair. Prof. Joyce makes it crystal clear and cares a lot about his students. He has a talent at teaching. Attend class, use the study guide, and you will do well. Final is cumulative, so prepare well. Overall, loved the course. I wish Prof. Joyce taught every

He is an amazing professor! He was always well prepared, energetic and fun. He explains the material very well, though it is tricky and hard. If you want to learn how to apply economics into real-life, definatly take him! He gives 3 tests and a final. Attendance not mandatory.

Highly recommend; passionate about econ, esp in the context of politics; makes a potentially difficult subject easy to understand; attendence not mandatory if avg >72; also, something about him is attractive for an older guy ; ) can't go wrong taking him. oh yeah, get the study guide, it condenses the info into + makes it easy-to-understand

Highly recommend!! He knows how to teach and make his students understandable. Attendence is not mandatory if your grade is above 70 something. Grades are only based on the EXAMs. Exams are easy he curves 2-3 Qs. Take him!

I'm surprised how well he teaches a lecture hall class of 500. He's the best professor I've had so far in Baruch. Paid attention in class n went over the powerpoints, never touched to book n still got an A- (mainly cuz i didnt study for the final) He's great, you should take him, 'nough said.

Intelligent, very knowledgeable and cares about students. Even though attendance isn't mandatory, his lectures were always compelling and you would miss out on skipping them. Book isn't necessary. The key to do well is read ppt slides which are based on the book and do the review questions in the study guide. Exam Q's are mostly based on the guide

Take this professor He is great. He knows how to teach and his teaching method is very effective.

Fabulous Professor, Sadly I got lazy and didn't attend his lectures. But the times I were there he was great, clear, and very effective. I got a B+. But that's solely because I never came to class. Could have gotten an A if I were more responsible. Professor Joyce is doing a great job. And would recommend him to all.

Agree with all the good things said about him. Lectures were so helpful and interesting that such a lazy person like me made an hour trip just for his lectures alone - I had no other classes that day - though attendance wasn't mandatory. Years from now you may forget many things, but after his class you will always know how to draw the demand curve

Prof Joyce was def the Man! he tries helping you out in anyway he can. His lectures made you want to come to class when its not even mandatory. The subject itself is not easy and you must study through the use of ppt slides and study guide. I like economics alot now because of this guy!

he is the best! learned alot from him, even though i wasnt on the mandatory attendance, i still chose to go, all u have to do is read the book and listen to what he says.

great professor. learned alot of interesting things. not hard as long as u read nd listen.

Students out there, do not skip this class! The materials are hard to catch up with if you missed classes. There are 3 exams and he curved all of them with a few points. He's a very good professor. When you're taking the exams, study the textbook as well.

He's a great professor. I actually went to class till the 1st exam, you don't have to go if you get higher then a 75. I suggest buying the study guide because it prepares you really well. There's no need to buy the textbook. The key to doing well in this class, is to understand all concepts in the study guide. Don't just memorize questions.

Very good professor. Simple tests and a very good curve. One of the best professors at Baruch.

This class is not easy. I entered this class with no knowledge about this topic, but I end up learning a lot by the end of this course. If you study the concepts and do the practice questions, from the study guide and read the book, you'll do fine. He is a highly qualified professor, and i'll definitely recommend him.

Very knowledgeable professor. His words are more clear and precise than in the book, so I advise you to listen to his lectures closely if you want any A!! I don't think you even need the textbook if you pay attention in class. Attendance is not mendatory if your composit test scores are higher than 75. Strongly recommended!!!!

Great prof. Explains things really well. His lectures are good, though I find eco to be an easy subject so I didn't go to class most of the time. I would recommend skipping the textbook and just getting the study guide. Attend the lectures and you should be good to go.

if you understand his lectures, read and understand the study guide, you should get an A. textbook isnt necessary, but STUDY GUIDE IS A MUST

Professor Joyce is awesome! He gets the material across well and always uses real life examples to convey the material. Tests may be tricky but make sure you do Aplia (15%) and the recitation quizzes, also buy the study guide and you should be fine! Two midterms one final (15% cumulative)

I am taking him right now and He is one of the best professors I have taken in Baruch so far. His way of teaching makes the material easier to understand. Online quizzes( Very Easy,) 2 midterms, 1 Final . He curves all the exams.All you have to do is read his power point slides and go to class. He makes all the efforts to help you get a good grade.

Professor Joyce is awesome! I learned a lot and now I love Economics...! Interesting, helpful, real, charming, cool, challenging, engaging, hot, serious, calm, smart, smart, smart, honest, smart, fun. Thanks PROFESSOR JOYCE. This is the type of professors we need at Baruch. Thank You Thank You Thank You.

His lectures were very good and the homework was helpful. His curves were decent but the tests opposed to the practice problems were very different. Interesting professor though.

This professor is great. His lectures are very intersting. I have no complaints. Take him.

Great class.

Prof Joyce is a really nice man. He explains everything fully and spends more time on a topic until everyone understands it. He actually cares for his students and wants them to do well. He enjoys what he is teaching. But his exams are very difficult and tricky

He is a great professor! He explains the subject clearly. He actually made me like economics.

Good professor, goes kind of fast regarding each chapter and there are a lot of them. Maybe its because i personally like smaller classes and this one was a jumbo course. Take him, I'm sure you'll learn a lot, i know i did.

Great Professor! Attendance is not mendatory if you are doing well in the class, but it is very usfull to come to the class.

I enjoyed his class although I am not a business major. Prof. Joyce is brilliant and fun! Online book and homework quizzes help to learn the material and to boost up your grade. The subject is not easy, but he teaches it the best way possible.

His tests are not easy at all.Lectures - useless. However, his online recitation classes are helpful.

Definitely a nice guy BUT this hybrid thing is just not a good idea. Especially with the way he teaches. He draws a graph (very messy) and spends about 1 minute going over it. That's absurd for 1 lecture/week. Midterm was harder than expected but he did curve. Lets hope final will be easier. Either curve our final grades or bring back recitations.

His econometrics class might seem a little daunting but take it. Guaranteed you'll learn a lot that will be useful to you beyond your time at Baruch. Most important class of my college career. He's an awesome professor. enthusiastic, positive teaching style. Would recommend his econometrics class to everyone (both finance and liberal arts students)

I love professor Joyce. He is very passionate and willing to answer questions students ask. also, his videos are very clear and straightforward. you will learn a lot. i actually like economics now. don't listen to people complaining about his lectures. they dont study. If you pay attention to the lectures you will get a good grade. tests are easy

Probably the most rewarding class I've taken in a while. Just took it as an elective but it was definitely worth it. Professor Joyce genuinely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Learned a lot of valuable things. It's not bad if you put in the effort and want to do well. I highly recommend ECO4000H with Prof. Joyce.

Good professor, cares about his students, curves all exams. I think i would have done better in this class if it wasn't hybrid (half online half lecture). His videos and online quizzes are very helpful, lectures are somewhat unorganized.

Very knowledgeable professor but unfortunately I took the hybrid class and it went way too fast for someone who had never taken economics (like myself) He really cares about his students and helped me very much. I still haven't received a grade but if I fail, it def wasn't because of him.

Econometrics is a challenging course, but the professor is very respectful of students and extraordinarily patient and helpful. He is great instructor and cares about his students. Expect to put in a lot of time and effort (there is no easy way out) but I definitely recommend Professor Joyce! The honors section is great because it is small.

he is a good teacher,the online video helps.he cares about his student but the material is just hard. will recommended

Took him for 4000H, great professor. Not going to say it was the easiest professor, but def. one of the most interesting classes I've taken so far. He genuinely cares about the subjects and the students which is a HUGE plus. If you don't mind taking a challenging course, go for it. Grade wise, he will work with you! VERY FAIR PERSON!! (2 exams+hw)

This class wasn't just good, it was exceptional. There was some serious studying required, but it was all worth it. He cares alot about every student's progress and honestly wants all the students to do well in the exams. You will learn so much in his class. Take him to be a cut above the rest. Simply the best.

Professor Joyce is the man. He knows what he talks about and wants you to learn something. If you are a finance major and you are planning to take Econometrics, take it with Joyce. You won't regret it.

I took the hybrid class this year and am so glad I did. It saves you SO much unnecessary lecture time. Yes this class involves you having to put more work in - but if you expect to sit back and have someone just magically make you understand, college isn't for you. This isn't high school. Attend all lectures, BUY the study guide & watch the youtube

videos he worked hard to make (watch them before doing the cengage quizzes and you'll ace them).People who are complaining either didn't put in the time, didn't attend class or sat all the way in the back. He makes class fun, and his tests are BASIC understanding of the material. I wish more prof's were like him and more classes were hybrid.

Prof Joyce is super good. YOu learn a lot from him. He explained everything so clear. Although Eco 4000H is not easy, he is always there to help.

He is so passionate about economics and genuinely cares about how his students do. Go to class, and watch the online videos! The videos will help you ace the exams. He's fun and makes class enjoyable. He's the greatest

I do not regret taking this class at all. It was fun and interesting but hybrid classes probably isnt the greatest for 250 people in a class. Clickers wasnt very helpful.Exams were definitely fair. Overall, would recommend and will see him next fall for Eco 4000!! Thanks prof Joyce !

I suggest the hydrid class for those how are willing to take the time to actually study! Joyce made it clear since the beginning that this format put more responsibility on the student. The test were basic, Videos really helped. If you study an read the book you will be fine!! I Rather study on my own and attend lecture for reinforcement. Recommend

Prof Joyce said right from the first class that the hybrid format requires ALOT of work outside the class. I found his videos and lectures to be extremely helpful. The midterm and final are completely fair as long as you actually study. For all the lazy people who are complaining, must have not put the time into studying...

took the hybrid class, hate Economics in general. Attendance isn't mandatory until after the midterm. Even then it depends on the grade you got for the midterm. If you get above an 80 you don't have to go to class. Take online quizzes. review them for the midterm and final. Great Professor though!

Professor Joyce’s class is fairly easy and straightforward. I got an A just by reading the textbook and watching a few of the online videos. I didn’t bother to attend most of his lectures because they are boring to sit through. However, the last fifteen minutes of his lectures when we use the clickers are a bit more enjoyable.

hybrid classes are great!! just read the book and do practice problems. The professor makes the material easy to understand and the video questions are great, mult choice for tests, attendance not mandatory unless you fall below b after midterm. Keep up with cengage and chapter readings.

Videos are extremely helpful. Just read the book and watch the videos. Exam questions are straightforward, not tricky at all. Plus, he curves generously Overall a easy class.

Great professor. Cares how you do in class even though it was a lecture. He curves his grades, and helps you in any way possible. I never went to class, read the textbook, took online quizzes and looked at online lectures and got an A-. Had I not missed an of the online quizzes I would have gotten an A.

Best professor at Baruch College. Too bad he won't be teaching anymore, since he is head of the econ dept now. But simply the best at his field. Knowledgable and funny. I enjoyed this class and also learned about using excel more proficiently.

Well.....Challenging I will tell you that. I study all my classes independently anyway. The aplia quizzes are a pain in the neck but if you take them seriously you will be very good. I really put in a lot of work because I wanted to ace this class because of all the work I had to put in but I recommend this class. if u slack then you won't get an A

He's a solid professor. Attend class, pay attention and do the aplia homework and you should be just fine.

Would i recommend this professor? Absolutely. Will you get an A without putting in some effort? Absolutely not. I will say the hybrid course was a little challenging seeing as though we only met once a week, but doing the Aplia work and watching hes quiz videos helped me Ace this class.

If you're good with exams, this class is for you. The whole grading system is based on midterm, final, Aplia quizzes, and attendence. The exams are easy too, multiple choices and huge curve for final. Prof Joyce gives you more than enough online resources to ace them.

Great Professor! He actually cares about his students and wants you to do well. Very passionate about economics. Midterm, Final, and HW assignments. Recommended.

Prof. Joyce was one of my faves! Knows his material well, explains it well, and will explain until you get it well. Genuinely cares about his students. Such an amazing person, nice and humble, and truly cares about his students!

Online part of the class is required with a post and pre lecture quiz every week. Tests are pretty hard but are curved. Attendance is mandatory

He is honestly one of my fav professors!! Funny, helpful and very friendly! He truly cares about his students and wants to make sure students understand his lectures! He's always so willing to help the students! You must take him!

Honestly, any business school worth its salt should have more professors like professor Ted Joyce. Negotiate good deals of textbook for students, informative online homework, clear lecture, willing to answer questions and problems. Helpful, put up a ton of helpful material on blackboard and great way to get students to participate in class Take him

Best professor I've ever had! If I could have him for every single class I would. He is very nice and helpful, would explain the material as many times as you need and he wants students to do good. I really wished that every professor was as dedicated as he is, Joyce is awesome!

ok here is the deal with Joyce. he is awesome. take they traditional that meets twice a week rather then the hybrid that meets once a week. he will cram things in in hybrid and u will not understand some things because of the pace of the class. he explains material clearly. test are tough. he will pick on u if u don't pay attention. take him though

What needs to be said has already been stated. Good guy and tries his best to help students. I took the Hybrid and liked the format. He posts all the lecture notes, additional video explanations, and other resources on blackboard. Tests were relatively hard, but had huge curves (which I'm not a fan of...). Ultimately you will learn the fundementals

Prof. Joyce likes to call on students constantly during his lectures to keep them attentive. This must be a great method for students to stay alert, but it can get a little intimidating if you are a shyer person. Often I was so nervous by focusing on not getting called on, that I did not pay attention to the actual lecture.

He is the best teacher that Baruch has . Very knowledgable. It has been the only class at Baruch that I actually learned from the teacher and not from a text book. Excellent teacher, excellent person!!!!!

very good prof Made the class very easy

Hybrid class is the way 2 go, easy A D

Extremely helpful professor who will patiently go over any and all questions no matter how many times it's been asked. However, he will randomly pick on students to make sure you're paying attention. Aplia homework and prepost quizzes every week and the exams aren't exactly easy, but he gives curves. Overall great prof and learned a lot!

God of economics

Great professor, but if you take the hybrid course make sure you're willing to put in work! He's super sympathetic if you just talk to him.

Exams will be incredibly difficult if you don't seriously put in work. However, Professor Joyce was more then willing to review the material several times with students between his office hours and final exam review sessions. If you opt to take the hybrid course, do yourself a favor and start studying the material for the final very early.

Economics is a pretty tough class to get into but I truly believe Joyce handled the hybrid class very well. If you are planning to take the hybrid class then you'll have to rely on only yourself to read and study before each class.

He sent an email for MindTap representatives to conduct surveys on Eco students. Thanks for the 25$ gift certificates, Joyce.

Class was amazing! Class is hybrid, so you have to read the material on your own and he will be there to help you with any questions/concerns. If you can't study and learn on your own, then don't take a hybrid. Test is tough only because wording can mess you up. If you study, stay ontop of yourself and ask him questions you will be fine.

He explains the material very clearly and has offered reviews for the final and midterm. This was a hybrid class so you have to put in a lot of effort into learning the material before and after class. This can be a challenging subject but his lectures will help you learn. Mind-tap was also very useful.

Joyce is a great guy but his exams are really tough. Towards the end of the semester he made us do a poll and almost 60% of the class said they would NOT take this course as a hybrid again. Work your butt off or look elsewhere.

Had to take an economics class and I'm glad I took it with him. Knowing nothing about economics, I was able to get an A in the class. It wasn't easy though - Just do the homeworks, listen in class and skim the textbook. Most people didn't pay attention in class and that's probably why so many people had a hard time.

Professor Joyce's lectures were clear, concise, and engaging. On top of that, he encourages you to ask questions about anything you don't find clear. As far as professors at Baruch go, he's the one that sets the bar. Nonetheless, if you're thinking about taking his hybrid, know that you HAVE to be self-motivated; his class is by no means an easy A.

This guy is amazing, he is very informative and helpful on his lectures. There were several group projects to do and since I took a hybrid course, there were quizzes every weekend. The exams are very challenging and conceptual. Overall, he is a great guy, but it's somewhat tough to get an A.

Prof Joyce is a really clear and wants to help you do well. His homework is really useful and gives you an explanation if you get something wrong. His lecture explains the readings really well and professor is open to answering all of your ques. I took a hybrid course so ihad to put in a decent amount of studying/reading. Be prepared to do the same

Joyce is really amazing. He's able to break down complicated concepts and apply them to the real world in a way that few professors can. He fully discloses the hybrid class is going to require a lot of studying on your own. If you think you can handle the self studying, TAKE JOYCE.

He's an amazing econ prof that breaks down all concepts so they're extremely easy (more so if you're a math nerd). Since I took the hybrid edition, he only really only taught once a week. Regardless, he taught well and, if the option is available, take him twice a week!

Stay on top of your work and you will do fine.

I took this class as a hybrid-course and did decent on my midterm and final, however I highly recommend taking a normal lecture-heavy class for a course like this. Mindtap (the website all weekly quizzes are done with) doesn't really compare to having a professor to ask questions and specify how to understand a lot of these topics.

Professor Joyce does a great job at explaining complex topics so that they are fairly clear. He also gives tons of practice problems from old tests so that you can be adequately prepared for the final. Overall, if you do the work outside of the classroom then you will do fine.

Professor Joyce is a great professor. He is very caring, enthusiastic, and approachable for help in a class that is fairly challenging like applied econometrics. He mostly uses STATA throughout the class you get exp with the coding language. Handful of projects, two exams, and a few presentations. He's a great professor!

I took ECO1001 as a hybrid course. Basically, it's two online quizzes a week where most of problems can be found online. Other than that, show up once a week (attendance is taken via TopHat), and study for his tests. Midterm 25% , Final 45%, and Online Work is 30%. He's a really cool guy and will always be willing to answer any questions you have.

Joyce is one of the best profs I've had so far. he really tries to make sure we understand the topics. Huge curves on his exams including the final. Uses tophat to mark attendance give practice problems. weekly connect hws and is always available outside of class. Great prof. take him.

Great teacher but you definitely have to read and get familiar with the topics. Lots of material to read and get accustomed to. Professor is very responsive and is super helpful.

very good professor, clear lectures and fair tests.

The professor is great at breaking down complex topics. While the coursework is challenging, attending lectures and using resources like unstuckstudy AI can really help. Worth the effort if you're willing to put in the work.
