Loved Coppock, but you need to have your own views on the economy as well - meaning, u need to understand that his understanding of macro isn't the "standard". Bad TA, she is hard working but sucks at communicating.

Funny and very informative lectures. Good class to take. You'll understand what the hell the Wallstreet Journal is talkng about after taking this class.

Coppack is a fantastic lecturer! His lectures are really interesting and he throws in just enough humor and real life examples to keep you hooked in. Abbey also does a great job as a TA and is very accessible. It's certainly not an easy A class but it's also not the toughest class either. If you work hard, you should do fine.

Coppock is very one sided and no where near as awesome as Elzinga. He is so conservative and it shows in most of the lectures. He tries to trick you on the teasts even though they are pretty easy.

Decent teacher and an easy class. Gives you the fundamentals on macroeconomics. The class setup is essentially identical to Elzinga's 201 class. Tests aren't bad if you have half a brain.

Lectures were pretty interesting and the material was not hard to comprehend. The final, however, was ridiculous. I wouldn't depend on the Dutch knockout for this class.

Dutch knockout will either save your grade, or kill your grade.
