Reviews of professor Claire Braverman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She has good business stories to tell, but discussion has nothing to do with the book/recorded lectures. The exam is all based on the book with nothing from discussion/lectures. Wasted time going to class since you have to teach yourself from the book to do well on exams. Gave 10 ec points for course eval. Avoid if possible there are better options

I liked Claire! You can tell she really wants her students to be successful. Her class is a lot of work but I learned SOOO much! It is not an easy A but if you work for it it could be done. I would take her again!

She gives vague grading criteria for projects and refuses to give clear answers as to what she is looking for. The quizzes are difficult even when you do all the reading and take notes. She tells you that her office hours are not for going over projects, or class material so I am not sure what her office hours are actually for then.

Professor Scott split the class into 3 groups, so we only had to meet on zoom one time a week. The assignments were straightforward. The class was graded on participation in class (making one comment per class is fine), 4 action memos, and 3 tests. The information was useful and Claire gave insights based on her experiences in business.

Claire was wonderful. I'm really surprised to see people thought her exams were hard. If you studied they were fine -- not too easy but definitely not impossible. She really puts a lot of time / effort into this class. She absolutely could lighten up the load a bit, but, overall, she was a great professor -- wants everyone to do well. Take her!

She's very knowledgeable but can not teach. We had four exams, an online quiz on the reading BEFORE she taught it and a final project. She expected to have a bell curve with every test (so basically most students got Cs). I actually did worse on her exams as time went on. The exams and what she lectures have little to do with one another.

I still love marketing despite this professor. She is super hard: her tests and online quizzes are ridiculous. Her lectures are pointlesssuper vague compared to the textbook information. Class attendance and bi-weekly articles at 5-6 points each. The marketing plan has vague feedback. Truly made life super stressful. Funny, but that's about it.

Professor Braverman is a great person. Very charming and interesting to listen to in class, with genuinely good advice and life stories. A little tough on the grading, but as long as you pay attention in class and read/watch what is assigned, the class will be very easy and informative.
