ECON1 . 5 Years Ago

He basically did nothing and all is on your own. But TA is great in this class.

ECON1 . 5 Years Ago

The worst prof I have ever seen. He didn't teach (another professor gave lectures) and answered few questions (mostly done by TAs). The only thing he did presumably was quizzes and exams, which were disasters. Questions were inexplicably hard and littered with errors. Grading's also terrible. In short, decent class, nice TA, avoid prof at all costs

ECON100B . 6 Years Ago

I never attended a single class and got a B. The class is 2 tests, midterm and final. Maybe I got lucky idk

Generous curve only because the tests are designed to be stupid hard. He gives practice questions but even if you get all the practice questions right you should only hope for a 70 on the tests. The professor is a good guy. I'm giving 5 stars for him but the class is a good negative 5.

Vespa is a great professor who cares about his students. As stated before, the curve is very generous. I got an 80/100 total in the class and received an A-. Do all of the practice problems and make sure you understand the material and you will definitely pass. Going to lecture helps a lot, but most of the class skipped it. Thanks, Vespa!!

Honestly as a 3rd year Ive seen a lot of harder Professors. Vespa is nice and he might be harsh but he gives out reasonable grades . For gods sake the curve for 100b is so generous. If he graded on a normal scale yall would get Fs. I did study my ass off and only got a B but it could be a lot worse so thank you Vespa I think ur a decent professor
