Reviews of professor Ruth Pogacar

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Ruth is a solid choice for Mktg 317, they were always cheerful during class and this made the class all the more enjoyable. The class is 70 percent group work which is not very difficult as long as you get a half decent group. The final is online and honestly not too bad and Ruth gave us all that was needed to succeed in this course.

she has lots of assignments that are outlined and explained but still sometimes unclear. she didn't record the lectures but they were very helpful, she gave lots of examples. make sure you choose good partners for the final project cause that put me down 3%. she is very nice and pleasant and answers email very quickly.

Vague grading criteria, and really scatterbrained. She makes the assignment guidelines really vague but then requires us to go into detail, and docks marks for the tiniest mistakes. She gets unsettled when students email her for questions or clarifications. Course material isn't heavy or difficult but her grading just doesn't make sense.

One of the best intro classes I have ever taken. She marks things very fast and her lectures are very informative. The only thing I would warn is that her tests are literally designed to trick you but she curves it sometimes so just study and you will be okay. You also stick with the same group the whole time so make sure you choose good ppl

Class was heavy in terms of assignments. Some guidelines for assignments weren't clear but replies quickly to emails which helps - assignments were also taken from examples during class lecture so just attend class and pay attention b/c class wasn't recorded. Exams were more like quizzes and were very easy. Easy A as long as you put in the effort!
