Review #1 / Course: ECON 2035 / Instructor: HILLEBRAND E
He was a cool guy. ECON 2035 is a tough class. Never went to class and just studied the book for the Exams.

Class is one of the most boring classes I've ever taken so I just stopped going. Just read the book. Final was rediculous and was curved about 20 points!

Worst teacher ever! Doesnt teach anything in class, boring and asks random questions on test that are not anywhere in the book. Impossible teacher and class. Find another teacher if possible.

Hated this class...then again, I always hate econ. Hillebrand is nice, but very boring. Hated the course content and the extremely difficult exams.

Eric is a good teacher, he gives good practice tests. The material is hard. He also grades on a bell curve.

He is a good teacher and he explains the material well, but his exams are impossible. Class average is usually 60-65. Take somebody else if you can.

Review #8 / Course: ECON 2035 / Instructor: HILLEBRAND E
Not as bad as 2020, not quite as boring or hard. The 2035 teachers are all pretty bad, but I'd recommend Hillebrand over the rest of them. Really nice guy, exams come straight from book. Class attendence may confuse you, read the book though.

This class is hard. I had to read every chapter and do the study guide numerous times for an A. Don't bother going to class, the exams come straight from the book, and he really can't teach anywa. Nice guy, but bad teacher. LOTS OF OUTSIDE READING
