ECON/RMI 530
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Just the best. Breaks down complex ideas really well and makes them clear and accessible. Very smart and seems to love teaching. Very organized. We read really interesting and relevant papers--she breaks down the theory and the approach and explains it all very well. Teaches you to read skeptically and ask questions. 10/10

Previous economic coding requirements did not adequately prepare for this class; Corina asked questions to understand your needs; flexible prof; first female econ prof I have had; encouraging; knowledgeable; would refer you to outside resources where appropriate

Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Corina is a good professor with straightforward grading. 1st half is math/problem sets, second half is simple writing assignments on research readings. Good class to learn about social policies in econ and fairly graded. Participation and attendance required but no textbook. Interesting class with good topics!

ECON 690
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Early on, lectures are more dry and fairly math heavy, but the second half focuses on conceptual issues that are super relevant! Weekly problem sets in the first half of the semester, 5 small papers in the second half, but they genuinely helped learn the material. Corina is great and picked really interesting topics to read about.
