Intro to Macro is a good class for weeding out students who are not genuinely interested in economics. In my experience, the homework, readings, and even class attendance did not seem to matter much. Your grade was mainly determined by three bomboclat exams that made up 85% of the final grade. Overall, though, I did pretty well, and my professor graded fairly, so I cannot rate the course too poorly.

This course was a perfect foundation for economics and Craven was a teacher with enthusiasm and passion for the topic. While the structure of the course was disorganized at times, it was sufficient for gaining an economic basis.
i was scared to take this class, but it ended up fine. her teaching style is a little boring, it can be hard to stay focused but if you go to her in office hours she is really helpful. her exams can be worded weird but if you ask her questions she will help explain and you will be fine.
