Reviews of professor Eric Mbakop

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
would not recommend for Econ 201, lectures were dry and often times word for word from the textbook. Every single assignment and test had typos and incorrect questions and once covered content from a tutorial we had not done yet

Seems like a pretty nice guy but he really let the lectures get derailed by irrelevant questions. I felt like half the time he spend explaining concepts we already learned apposed to teaching a bit more in-depth so questions weren't as necessary. As far as econ classes go I think it was pretty average but I wouldn't recommend him.

Overcomplicated many concepts that were supposed to be easy to understand if you just read the textbook. Assignments were easy but the midterms were pretty hard, there weren't a lot of concept questions on the final, it was mostly doing calculations based on a few examples. Also, typos everywhere...

Eric was a great professor and the assignments and midterms were manageable. But the final was the absolute worst! Nothing like what we learned throughout the semester and it really dropped my final grade. Classes were not mandatory but it was good to go if you wanted more understanding of the topics.

Maybe Eric taught better in person based on previous ratings. But my experience was awful, I self taught myself almost the entire course. In lecture he will read from the slides word for word and discuss theory, but all of the midterms and even the final were based on content that is BARELY discussed in lecture. Don't waste your student loans here.

Amazing prof. I love the way he allows students to ask questions and how he interacts with the class.

Mr. Mbakop is not only boring and monotone, he has very poor communication skills, we were not given any details about the final exam until the night before. His midterms and Final was full of equations that was extremely difficult. He is cold to questions as well and I struggled to understand the lectures with his accent. He clearly doesn't care.

Hes a regular prof. He's nice, he teaches, he gives grades. He curved grades down sooo much even tho it was dept. policy not him but still. He decided to make tests even harder to get students to do bad on them. but he still teaches good and he explains the content pretty clearly tbh. just the department and marking is not it

Mr. Mbakop's lectures were VERY hard to stay focused on and he never went in-depth about certain topics. The majority of our assignments required equations that he had never explained to us. Our midterms and final were based solely on tutorials AND about tutorials not accessible to us before the midterm ended. He does not care for his students.
