Dr. Val was super easy to pass. Biggest thing is attendance counts but those are easy points. Everythings online so you can take your time with assignments/tests. If youre looking for an easy A Ive had her for 1347,3341,4341. Shes awesome about turning in late work if you missed something and very realistic about deadlines. Doesnt follow syll

Easy classes. Took 1341 & 1347 last semester and rec'd an A in both. There's like 3 exams, 3 quizzes and 2 assignments all done at home, open book open computer.

This entire class is filled with listening to her telling stories, about herself, and things that have absolutely NOTHING to do with finance or consumers. You wont learn anything from the lecture, so purchasing the textbook is your best option for passing the tests. Showed up to every class and learned 0% about economics, consumers, or finance.

Professor Ballesteros is pretty good! I had her for Personal and Family Finance. The class itself is pretty boring and all she does in class is go over the powerpoints (which are posted online), but the class is really easy. The majority of questions are from the powerpoints. Attendance does count towards your grade, which is the only downside.

It was hard to actually go to class because it was in the morning. But all quizzes and tests are online so that made it worth it. Also, each of her assignments is competition grades so if you don't get an A in this class you seriously did absolutely nothing.
