Reviews of professor Christopher Clarke

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Christopher Clarke seems like a nice guy but his class was really hard. Each test is worth more and more, and the material on the tests is barely taught in class. A lot of questions on the tests make no sense and he rarely takes them out. If there is another professor to take, I would do that.

If you are majoring in ECON then you will be fine if you take this class. The TA does everything and you'll mostly just have to read the textbook and do the homework right after so it's still fresh. Tests are cumulative but most questions are repeated and there's a review that really helps. Depending on your TA there is a curve for each exam.

Terrible. I failed this course 2 years ago and remembered how terrible he was so I came back to write this review. Dropped his course the first time, this was my second time. Heavy and fast-paced lectures, way too many extremely difficult and time-consuming homeworks, and depressing exams. His condescending attitude will make you feel embarrassed.

Homework is long and time-consuming, and is a grade (not a completion grade). Which sucks because you are trying to practice new concepts that were just presented to you. His lectures aren't helpful. Just read the textbook and do the adaptive test prep with the ebook, and try to understand the basic concepts. His tests are okay not too hard.

Amazing professor, always kept the class engaged by having interesting lectures and tying in the lectures with real world examples. Tests are fairly straight forward and he grades fairly easy, do not leave anything blank!!

Professor Clarke was amazing! He really cares about his students and their grades. His lectures are super engaging too! He writes his own tests and usually goes over the general questions it'll ask. You'll have to study and do ALL the homework for an A, but the topics are fairly easy. The homework helps a bunch. 10/10 recommend

This guy had lectures from before the covid pandemic in a spring 2023 class. How could you teach a class economics with data before the pandemic? Not to mention this Christopher clarke guy is never present and makes the TA do everything. Don't take this professor your gonna have to teach yourself everything and still manage average on the test.
