MARK 3000 - PRIN OF MKT
She is very knowledgeable and you can tell she really enjoys teaching marketing. Tests are multiple choice and an essay. The essay question is different on each form, which is sort of unfair... Questions are mainly application based and somewhat hard, but not at all impossible

MARK 3000 - PRIN OF MKT
Make sure you bring a crossword to class or you won't survive. She is kind of tough but I think I'll be able to manage a B, B+, or A-. You're kind of stuck with her as a Terry student but good luck.
Pros: You can get about 3 extra points on tests just by going to class. She gives some decent hints about what's going to be on the tests.
Cons: She's really boring and this class is painful to sit through. The tests are a little too hard for an intro to marketing class that the cohort black has to take. Just over all a pretty boring class.

5*****
Pros: Very passionate teacher. She knows her stuff and loves to teach it.
Cons: Talks very fast and has a tremendous amount of energy which can be overwhelming sometimes.
Easy class if you just read the books and know the definitions. The tests are basically just over definitions and the main concept of each chapter. The definitions won't be word for word on the tests but they will be put into context but still pretty clear and straightforward. No need to attend class except for the extra credit. Every test she'll give the opportunity for 2-3 extra credit points by either doing an easy HW assignment before class or some kind of in-class activity. I made a 103 in the class and never studied until the day before the tests.

MARK 3000
PRIN OF MKT
4****
Pros: She really enjoys teaching the class and is extremely enthusiastic about MARK. The test are not that hard, they pretty much just are knowing a bunch of definitions/processes and applying them to situations.
Cons: For anyone that is not a MARK major it is pretty boring stuff. A lot of the class is taking common sense ideas and putting pretty words and processes behind it.
I didn't really like the class, but I enjoyed the teacher. The test are pretty fair and you know what to expect. She gives extra credit for each test (1-3 points) just for going to class pretty much. The homework part is never mandatory, if you just come to class and do the assignment you get credit.

PRIN OF MKT
1*
Pros: She's nice and outgoing, and gives exam bonus points for attending lecture.
Cons: Every lecture just seems like she's shouting sporadic information at you. She only has one tone of voice that seems to say "LISTEN" and I can't really make much sense of what she's saying because there is no inflection in her voice. Plus the tests are much more difficult than the subject matter.
The subject matter and the class is pretty easy, but the tests are made to trick you and it seems unnecessary.

Pros: Tests are pretty easy

Extra credit for going to class
Cons: Mind numbing lectures
She never changes tone, everything is equally exciting to her, so there is no way of listening for the important points, it is all delivered in a semi-shout.



I read the textbook the day before each test (after spending class time on facebook) and did well.

Pros: Pretty easy class if you read the book and go to class. She offers extra credit for "in-class" assignments. Sometimes they are online and you don't have to go to class that day, and some are like homework.
Cons: Part of the test is free-response and sometimes the topic is on something she didn't put a lot of emphasis on in class.

Tests get more difficult as the semester goes on. Your essay questions are hit or miss and can help or hurt your test grade depending on which one you get. Tests can get really detailed. You can get some extra credit points for your test for being in class to do random assignments. Not an easy class.

Pros: 3 point extra credit attendance/home works for each test. No attendance required.
Cons: Grade is strictly test based. The questions on the tests are sometimes tricky and the free response section is not always equally balanced in the class.
She is passionate about the class but marketing isn't my thing.

Pros: It's required for Terry... that's about it.
Cons: Her tests are far more tricky than the subject material seems.

Her lectures are boring, she will go off on tangents and waste class time as well.
You need to study hard, memorize the obscure details. Those tiny things have a tendency to pop up on tests

When I had her she was pregnant so our class was rushed. She's a nice lady but she picks the most obscure things to put on the test. Be sure to read everything in the textbook even the things on the sidebars as she likes to put that kind of stuff on the test.

Pros: Class is pretty easy
Cons: Class is very boring

She doesn't provide all the notes on her Powerpoints and only uploads them in pdf.
Tests aren't that hard but can be tricky and nit picky on the essay questions.
