Goated professor. Econ 2 final was significantly more difficult than the midterm, but he graded very easily on everything else. Great professor who actually cares about the students.

so enthusiastic but that final was made by the devil himself. never studied, little to no work during the week, but the final will make you weep.

Professor Lang is an amazing professor! Go to his lectures, which are very engaging, and sections. Majority of grade is the exams but he is a fair tester and provides great practice. The project is on your own so DON'T PUT IT OFF TIL THE LAST WEEK. If you go to lectures and sections and are an active participant you will be successful in the class.

Great explainer of complicated topics, difficult final. Loved learning from him

Really enjoyed this course. Matthew is a great lecturer and homework was pretty minimal. Midterm was really easy but the final was pretty hard I got 38/50 even though I got 29/30 on the midterm. Most of the work is really easy, so the final being difficult was a little shocking but overall really enjoyed this course and the sections are easy too.

He is a good professor and does well in lectures. He's very nice and sweet, especially if you go to office hours and walking hours. He did have a hard final this quarter but I think it's because he is still adjusting to UCSB and the department forces him to put a curve on the whole class so that no more than a percentage of people pass. Great guy.

Expects you to put time into the class, but everything is very doable. Uses Tophat which is pretty simple to use and course work is fair. Last final was much harder than expected though, but he curved up afterwards, so wasn't that bad.

This class gave me the least amount of work during the quarter. There was only one short quiz assignment per week that you had to do. 60% of the grade is midterm/final. He buys you Starbucks if you go to walking hours. Midterm was easy, final was rather difficult. He did curve my final grade up about 3% to bring me back to an A though.

The final was so difficult. Nothing related to the lecture and practice problems

First midterm he gave us was chill and exactly like the practice midterm. Second midterm he gave us was unnecessarily long and nothing like the practice midterm. Final exam was quite challenging and final project was graded harshly despite being "easy points". He may seem like he cares about you at the beginning but don't be fooled.

I don't recommend taking his class because the final was diabolically difficult. You're better off taking this course at community college, and getting an easy A.

Lang made this class so much more difficult than it should've been. I read and took notes on the entire textbook that Lang wrote, and doing assigned practice problems. However he made the final VERY DIFFICULT without providing any practice problems of similar difficulty. This class is going to tank my GPA, just take it at CC don't take Lang.
