ECON 2020

Great class! Coppock is a great teacher and lecturer, and the subject matter is really interesting. I thought 201 w/ Elzinga would be a hard act to follow, but I liked 202 with Coppock even better. Take it if you get the chance!

Coppock is a good teacher and his lectures are relatively enjoyable. He's very approachable. My one piece of advice is study hard for the final! I got perfect scores on both the midterms, but didn't too well on the final. It's definitely very different from the midterms. Don't just assume that if you have a good grade going into the final that you're set for the class.

Mr. Coppock is an excellent lecturer.
His tests are challenging but the class is definitely worth taking for any major.

It was a very good class with hard but interesting material. Obviously a requirement for many, so I'd recommend Coppock. He is pretty conservative and it shows, but his lectures are concise and really helpful. The book is good as well. 2 Midterms are not that hard, just study the larger topics and know the concepts. Final is getting easier every year, and this year it was not bad. Focuses on new material. Good and worthwhile course.

Very applicable to the current situation. Definently take it if you need another econ course besides Elzinga's.

Coppock doesn't hold you responsible for information he doesn't cover, so don't take extensive notes on the book. Ben was a great TA - he covered gaps in the lectures and gave plenty of practice problems. The final was challenging but if you actually understand the theories and concepts rather than just how to do certain problems (like from the midterms) you can do well. I wouldn't recommend relying on dutch knockout, but it worked for me... If you have to take 202, take it with Coppock.

Going to lecture definitely helps. Since his tests are based on the lecture, it's hard to just read the book to get by. He's funny though, so lectures are interesting to go to. Clickers are annoying though since mine constantly wouldn't send my answer in time.

Fantastic professor. The lectures are interesting, funny, and overall very well-done. The midterms are not hard at all if you understand all that is said in the lecture. The final is not hard either, you must just know the concepts taught in the lecture. Book not really needed. Wonderfull class.

hahahaahaha

that's what I walked way from the final saying, because I've never been that humbled in my life. I loved going to class- it's very fun, social, and easy to make friends. The lectures were enjoyable and all you had to do was clicker points and go to section (except mine was optional with online quizzes). That said, I got pretty good grades on the midterms and really braced myself for the final and did the worst on it as any academic assignment in my life. Don't read the book. Get a TA who speaks English and makes it a requirement you go too, I think that'd help. Anyway, I did learn a lot, and that's what college is about... right?

... who needs grad school anyway?

Great class. Coppock is a hilarious, entertaining lecturer
