ECON9 . Benelli C A 16 Days Ago

Very unorganized and chaotic class but the workload is so light and the TAs go over the homework in section. Personally, I thought she was so entertaining and silly but if you want a more organized professor she isn't the best choice. Final was a choice between short paper or video on topic of your choice and midterm was short multiple choice.

Content wasn't particularily hard but there is a CRAZY curve so I'm pretty sure most of the bad reviews out there are from people who didn't bother putting in any work. Will admit that Cindy wasn't the best lecturer though. She had a tendency to go on side rants and would make random graphs that she wouldn't post later.

I LOVE CINDY BENELLI!She is SO kind and the class is 100% manageable if you do the practice quizzes and read the textbook before tests.Ppl make it out to be super difficult but it's not if they actually tried.Lectures are very fun and the hw, quiz, and analysis project grading is lenient.I thought the class was fascinating and am a Cindy supporter

She was nice, but also really unorganized (that was the hardest part of the class). As long as you read the book and watch some YouTube videos, you'll pass. The material is easy, but you won't really know 100% what your grade will be until the end. She let some people skip the final depending on their grade percentage, so keep those grades up!

The teacher is extremely disorganized and chaotic, yet never apologetic. The tests are really easy, and she often said the exam would be much longer than it was (not in a good way). Despite receiving a good grade, I would never take a class with this professor again, and I would recommend you avoid taking one with her as well.

I will not stand for all this benelli hate. Sure she is a little disorganized but it's not as bad as people are making it out to be. Very clear about criteria and expectations for the course on the first day so as long as you listen then you'll be fine. I barely did the readings but went to all lectures and did good. She is also very understanding.
