Not a bad class, especially if you've taken econ before. Go to his lectures; he doesn't record them. No homework at all. Just three short problem sets, where the TA sessions give you the answers. STUDY hard for his 50% final tho, bc you can't get lower than whatever you get on that.
Long lectures but he cares about what he's teaching and tries to make it interesting. He wants everyone to know that he's smarter than them, and the class is all him talking. The problem sets are exactly what is on the test, so really try to learn the stuff on them.
egotistical, bad at teaching, charming in some ways but very harsh grader. avoid unless you have a particularly easy schedule otherwise
