Review #1 / Course: AGEC 2003 / Instructor: GILLESPIE J
Great teacher. Material is very boring, but you must go to class because notes are not posted. There are many graphs and equations you have to learn, but they are do-able. There are 10 pop quizzes and four homework assignments. He lets you drop one of the three regular exams, but you have to take the final. The exam questions can be tricky sometimes. Don't buy the textbook. Just know the notes really well, and you will do fine!

Review #2 / Course: AGEC 2003 / Instructor: GILLESPIE J
Dr. Gillespie writes all notes on board and makes it easy to follow. He drops a test grade and gives small in class assignments which help if your there. Tests are not difficult and h/w is given 4 times. Class somewhat boring but it could be worse

Great teacher! The class is easy but you have to go because notes are not posted online. Extra quizes and homeworks help. He is very nice too.

Review #7 / Course: AGEC 2003 / Instructor: GILLESPIE J
Dr. Gillespie rocks! He is intereste in the subject, provides practical examples, and asks for class input. He also follows the book pretty closely, so it is actually helpful more than confusing.

Jefferey Gillespie was a great instructor,,,,just go to class and take notes,,,,the test's are straight from the notes. You do not need to buy the book either. Very easy class if you study the night before(lots of graphs).
