Reviews of professor Howard Sokol

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Sokol is a great professor. He truly knows his business law and help make sure the students understand each concept. If you attend class and ask questions you will do great. He tells you exactly which slides to study and the exams are purely made up of these topics. Definitely recommend take BUSA 2810 with him.

There's only 3 tests, an essay and an attendance grade. I got an A on everything except one test, and finished with a B. I really didn't listen that much in class, and only studied the slides he told us to. The material wasn't my favorite, but it really wasn't that bad.

His exams are half multiple choice half true or false. The true or false are incredibly difficult with one word making the statement true or false. His exams did not reflect whether the student understood the material. He gives an essay with little to no direction with absurd legal scenarios and then grades heavily on this essay.

Boring class. For every test you take, expect to get 20 points lower than what you thought you scored. Its rather absurd how he grades. Do not take.

Professor Sokol was a good professor. He knew what he was talking about. His grading was very clear. He always told us EXACTLY what was going to be on the test. He uses powerpoints to lecture and that is also what the tests are based on. I never read the book and got an A just by reading the power points. He wasn't amazing but wasn't horrible.

The low ratings are just because students scored low on the exams without studying. He literally tells you which slides to study, and the tests are almost word for word the slides. Only thing that sucks is there are only 5 grades the semester including class participation, so show up. Lectures can be boring but nice guy and minimum effort class.

DO NOT TAKE!!! This guy does not care about his students and expects you to remember material that was taught after many weeks had past. He is very confusing and it is very hard to ask him questions during his god-awful lectures. STAY AWAY!! He does offer extra credit but not sure how it will help in the end.

If you take this class, you literally don't have to take notes. Before each test (there were 3), he gives you a list of PowerPoint slides to study. If you do this, you can make an A on every test. There was one paper, but it was not very long and he gave an opportunity for revisions. I recommend you take this professor

Confused as to why rating is so low. Easiest tests I've evert taken, I've never had a college professor who made the test word for word the PowerPoints they used. He literally tells you which slides to study, and the exams are word for word the slides. Use quizlet and youll be fine. Lectures are kinda boring but overall nice guy & easy pass.
