Reviews of professor Steven White

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Prof White is a nice guy and he tries his best to make lectures not extremely boring. If you actually go to lectures and do the psets on your own you can easily get an A. If you do the bare minimum you'll probably get a B. The psets are hard but tests are easy. Also, discussion is optional but if you go it's extra credit.

Professor White is a good professor and tries to make class entertaining but I thought this class was extremely difficult. There are two midterms and a final exam. The midterms are hard but I thought the final was a little bit easier. The curve at the end saved me from failing.

I did not enjoy this class and it was hard to understand the concepts he was explaining. However, that might have been partly because all of the classes were online (because of COVID) so my experience with him might have been much better in person.

I took HIS 240. His grading is very different, it's holistic and you earn points that make up your grade. Essays were due every week, says you can write as much as you want but in reality you won't get an A unless the essay is 5 pages plus, every week.

Professor White is a great professor, so don't be fooled by my grade. I put in absolutely no effort into the class and still passed. He's very laid back and lectures well. An A is very doable, as long as you put in effort. Midterms and final are exactly like practice sets and tests.

Professor White is an amazing professor, especially for people without an economics background. His lectures in class focus on basic examples and definition and then there are weekly homework problem sets that are very similar to the midterm and final questions. If you study the problem sets and study guides, you will do really well on the tests.

Dr. White is an excellent professor. I had him for EC101 and EC102. The class grading is very fair, and Dr. White loves to put interactive questions during his lectures. Weekly homework is assigned, and the exams are based on the homework. He gives extra credit, practice exams, videos with worked answers, and relevant examples- with shiba dogs!

Professor White records the lectures so you don't have to go to lectures, tests are very similar to the homework's.

Professor White is definitely a nice person. He is considerate and humorous. He always replies to emails and helps me resolve my problems while the TA never cares about that and never replies to my e-mail. His lecture and slides are well-organized and interesting. But the final exam is MUCH HARDER than the previous two exams.
