Great professor, explained concepts very well

I don't understand all the horrible ratings about her! The material is statistics, so yeah, can be tough and not the most interesting stuff but she is very clear in her slides and expectations. The curve definitely helps. I'd take from her again for sure

Horrible Professor. DO NOT TAKE CLASS. WILL NOT HELP YOU.

Interesting professor. Midterms and the final are hard, but the class is impossible to fail.

I took Kafali for EC201 & 203. Both are mathematical and 201 is considered a bit tough, its the course difficulty and not really her fault. She tries to help. She actually has easier questions (mathematically) compared to other professors. There is a huge difference between the PSs and Midterms but if you pay attention in class, it is not that bad.

Professor Kafali's EC201 was a letdown. Chaotic lectures, poor communication, and vague feedback made learning tough. Assignments were confusing, and there seemed to be no interest in teaching. A disappointing experience that hindered rather than helped my understanding of the subject.

Go to class! She considers participation and improvement for final grades. The slides are very easy to understand in class but a little confusing outside of class.When studying for the final know how to solve questions for all types of utility and production functions.

Challenging, fair and professional.

Professors lecture are disorganized and hard to follow. Unapproachable after class. She won't address questions after class and left students unsupported.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5

Professor Kafali's class was frustrating. Disorganized content, lack of feedback, and unclear assignments made it hard to learn. Felt ignored and unsupported throughout. Expected much more from a college-level course. Very disappointing.

the materials are difficult but she explained them very clearly and made it easier, nice professor and grading fairly.

Super kind and very good lectures, tests aren't crazy hard or anything I'm just dumb lol. Fairly generous curves, I think it's borderline impossible to full on fail the class
