hes a chiller

Professor Esponda is one of the best professors in the Econ department!! He's a great lecturer and cares about students, friendly in OH. Grading is 45% final and 55% attendance/problem sets/quizzes, and you get most points just by showing up and completing work. Classes are super fun and engaging. Do need to study for the final. Highly recommend

best professor hands down

He is mean and unfair

He's lecture is actually fun. There are two way to count grade, 45% final 35% in-class activity and 20%problem sets or 100% final depends on whatever grant you higher total grade. Problem sets is graded on completion but in-class activity is kinda annoying since group work every time. The final is easy. He avoided 75% of thing that I don't know.

Closest you can get to MIT / Harvard at UCSB. Best Professor I've had in the econ dept. Low stress class with high reward. Highly highly recommend!
