Reviews of professor Susan Russell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great teacher! She gives a lot of feedback on all assignments. Getting an A is not hard at all, just do your assignments and you'll be good. Homework and quizzes are easy - all answers come from the slides or her video lecture. No reading! So that's a plus. She drops 3 discussion posts, 2 homeworks, and 2 quizzes.

Weekly assignments/quizzes are straightforward and paced well. However, the class is ridiculously exam-heavy, with 70% of the final grade dictated off 3 exams. She purposely makes quiz/exam questions more difficult by slightly changing the wording/phrasing of the question. She knows the material but also has an ego. The project is easy.

Such a great professor and her video lectures made online school easier. There is 1 quiz and 1 test each week, but all of that can be found in her video lecture. The material is kinda hard for me, but she is a great professor and it is manageable to get an A if you try and pay attention. I would take her again, she is a great professor honestly.

The class overall wasn't tough except for the essays. There were 3 that took up most of the grade. If you flunked one it dropped your grade heavily. She makes the tests tough because the wording of the questions are difficult to understand.

Awesome teacher, she's really nice and very organized. She emails everyone sending out reminders to finish their assignments. Weekly DBs, quizzes, and homework. 3 Exams and 1 current event essay, but all very doable. No reading, just video lectures. She takes off the lowest grades of 3 DBs, 2 homework, and 2 quizzes. Provides study guides for exams

Professor Russell is an amazing instructor! Her lectures made econ easy to understand and were also quite fun/interesting in the process. There is a weekly HW assignment, quiz, discussion post, and replies (2 required). This may sound like a lot but it really wasn't. The answers to the HW and quiz come straight from the lectures and are open book.

Took her class during the summer and loved it! She loves what she does and wants you to learn and understand the material. There are two chances on her quizzes and you do not need a book. If you have OCD her graphs on tests are not exact and might bug! But besides that you have to work for your A! Well worth the work. Listen and take notes!

Professor Russell was great. Gives a chapter each week with an hour lecture, homework and quiz for each chapter with a DB assignment. If you put in the work and watch the lectures, you will do fine, not hard but quite a bit of work. Responds most of the time which is helpful. Would recommend.
