Professor Sommers is a very nice guy who is clearly passionate about what he teaches. His exams are not take home anymore, but they are still fairly easy. He does a good job explaining the fundamental concepts of microeconomics necessary to move forward with an Econ major. The only downside that I found with his class were the daily problem sets, and the graders were rather harsh. Other than that, his class was a great experience!

Exams are not take-home anymore but they're even easier now that they're in-class. If you show up and complete the homework everyday, you'll do well. Make sure to put in effort on the daily assignments as they count for 15% of the class and graders can be harsh. Sommers also tends to give heavy hints on the types of questions that the exams will include.

Professor Sommers gives a really good introduction to the field of Microeconomics. Although his lectures can be a bit boring he does a good job explaining the fundamental concepts that are crucial to understanding the course material. The exams are a good overview of the course material and are not bad if you pay attention during lectures/go to office hours. It is one of my favorite classes so far this semester and has a very manageable workload.
