So the material wasn't too hard but since he assumes everyone already know many things people don't do well in his class. He skips the basics and go deep into things he is not supposed to teach (more advanced topics that he likes better), then in the exam he asks about the basics that he didn't teach.

Good guy. Material is straightforward, as is his delivery. Very honest and has his own little humor. If you don't like his class its because you don't like econ.

Class is pretty hard, curves are nice but you better hope you get a good TA cause most are pretty bad. Also if you're easily offended watch out, he will drop **** comments throughout the semester. My favorite was that AIDS was the best thing to happen to Africa productivity wise

Navarro is the man! Exams are a bit tricky but if you put the time in, you can definitely do well.

I know a lot of people hated him. I thought he was really funny, but still hardly got me to lecture. He uses the online program called "aplia" for homework. He usually gives an automatic 20 point curve on tests. If you don't hate econ, there is no reason you should hate this class.
