Phani Wunnava

Professor Wannavua is very energetic and does his best to relate to everyone in the class. He can seem intimidating at first but as long as you participate he'll like you. As long as you do the reading, submit the hw on time and show up to class you should do well. He doesn't try and trick you on exams.

The professor was hard to understand. The most subjective economics class because he had us write 3 essays in the finals. Doesn't give extra credit, and lectures don't have much to do with the midterm and the final.

Overall this was a decent class. It is important material to know if you are planning on majoring in Econ or even if you just have an interest in how the economy works at the personal/company level. Wunnava is passionate about his work but can be hard to understand, and if you zone out for even a minute you can miss some essential things. I sometimes felt unable to demonstrate my learning in the exams, which were often quite difficult but graded fairly. Grading is made up of a midterm (30%), homework average (30%) and a final (40%) so if you mess one of those up it is very hard to do well. I would recommend studying the textbook super intensely because sometimes the exams will have concepts that were barely brushed over in class.
