Reviews of professor Trina Biswas

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She is a stand up professor. If this is a required course I could not recommend a better professor. Not recommended if you just need a gen ed elective. Three hw assignments, three exams, one final. I definitely could have at least got a B if I put in more work.

Biswas is very caring and will let a lot of things slide that other professors wouldnt. She wants her students to succeed. Lots of grades are put in. But, her lectures make the material seem way more confusing than it actually is. I took two econ classes before this and certain formulas and concepts are explained poorly.

does take random attendance for points. very sweet and helpful. gives great feedback on any questions. tests are easy if you study, mainly just memorization. barely any homework and weekly quizzes.

Super easy course and shes a great teacher. Its all online this semester but her quiz questions are straight from the in class questions from TopHat. Her exams are the same way nothing is hard in this class and no homework unless you miss days like we did this semester with the ice. Definitely recommend her if you are looking for an easy A.

She was a fantastic lecturer and really easy to ask for help on any topic. Grades were based on lots of quizzes and 4 in-person tests. Attendance wasn't required, but she does bonus quizzes that go towards your next test if you are present. I had up to 20 bonus points for one test. Overall a great professor.

She's sweet and makes this class not difficult. It's boring but not hard. I barely paid attention in the class or studied and made an A+ in the course. Most of the material is easy and can be understood using common sense.

Easy A. She goes over things very well and will review everything she went over in the previous class at the beginning of the following class. Gives quizzes and 10 point bonus quizzes for exams. I studied for exams the night before and made As. The exams are the exact tophat questions she asks in class. Definitely take this class if you need it.

I have never hated a class more than I hated this one. She treats it like a high school class where attendance determines the entirety of your grade. That'd be fine if the content was difficult, but the content is easy if you study the powerpoint. Bonus quizzes when attendance is low meaning go on all Fridays and holidays because she will be there

Her accent really does not affect how I understood her at all. She does repeat herself quite often but it's only because half the class that did show up really did not care about what she had to say. She is a very nice lady but I did find that I was wanting to fall asleep during class. Economics is not my thing but if you have to take it, pick her.
