This prof. is absolutely horrible. He assigns you TONS of reading, but he does not explain anything. All he does is he reads the overhead, but does not explain anything whatsoever. And the overheads are just simply the main ideas literally speaking copied from the book. If people ask him a question in class and he does not have time to cover the new material then you are responsible on your own to figure it all out. Next class he goes on to a new topic before he covered the material from the previous class. Absolutely ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I had never signed up for the class...I will have to take finance with someone else to really learn something.

Spring 2019 - Highly recommend this class to all Biz Econ/Econ majors. Professor Convery is extremely knowledgeable on the topics discussed and gives engaging lectures. Tests are straightforward and are fair. Do all the practice questions from the book, not just the highlighted ones, go to lecture, and skim the textbook and you will get a good grade. Go to his office hours if you need help on problems, he is great at individual teaching. The topics discussed in this class are valuable no matter what field you enter, but especially if you go into Finance or Consulting. Highly recommend this class and Professor Convery!

Professor Lustig is awesome. Super nice guy. If you don't understand something, definitely go talk to him. His lectures are great, though it was hard at 8am. Definitely take the midterm--much easier than the final. Reading the book helps a lot because he just follows it mostly. Really not that difficult of a class and you learn some very useful info.
