Complain if you wish, but I find proctorU to be a minor inconvenience compared to the “no review” policy or the fact that none of the 5 courses I have taken had any lectures.


Yea, you're right. ProctorU was noticeably better on Sunday than it was on Wednesday. I don't think Kungu or any of the other absent professors are showing any signs of life.

Anyone have any info on Shaughnessy versus Fawaz for ECON 705? I am currently set to take Shaughnessy but the more I read about him, the more I think I want to drop it. Everyone seems to say he's a great professor but it seems like an extreme amount of work. From what I can tell, Fawaz seems to be half the amount of work as Shaughnessy and has great reviews as well.

I want to learn as much as I can, but I also don't feel like killing myself. I've done that in two of my classes so far and it wasn't worth the headache.

Fawaz is great. Just watch weekly zoom sessions. Also, he curves.

YES! Having the same issue. Went from 50 to 18 in the chat queue to get help in about 20 minutes. I took a screenshot in case I have to show my prof. that I had a full hour left before the exam entry cutoff time when it gave me this error.

This isn't cool. What's the point of a time frame if no sessions are available? I've been studying the whole day and I log on to find nothing available. This is bullshite.

No! He was adamant that he needs to give a certain number of A's, B's, Etc. Don't expect any leniency from Fabio.

I will tell you though, if you attend the Zoom sessions and twist his leg, he WILL tell you exactly what is on the exams. All you gotta do is play nice. He's a great professor and if you put in the time building relationships, he'll take care of you.

Shaughnessy was great. You can tell he really enjoys the material. He was very helpful anytime someone had questions. I would say he is the best professor I've encountered so far. I made an A without feeling like I was overworked.

Hey everyone! I have a question regarding the grade requirements for the MBA program. I know we are required to maintain a 3.0 GPA for graduation, but I remember seeing somewhere that we can get a maximum of 2 C's throughout the program as long as our cumulative GPA remains above a 3.0. Is this correct, or are we required to receive an A or B in every class? I've received all A's so far in the program, but I was screwed last night by my internet and couldn't submit an assignment and the professor wouldn't accept it when my internet was up and running again. It's only the start of week 3, but that miss dropped me from a 91% to a 71% in the class and so I'm curious if I'm not able to get the grade above the 80% threshold, am I going to have to retake this class or are we allowed to get a C? Thanks for any information that you all can provide!

Hey Wallie -- To graduate you need a 3.0 or higher GPA. In addition, you cannot earn more than two total C's.

There is plenty of time and many professors drop a low grade or curve up at the end of the semester. As of now, I wouldn't sweat it.

I am in Fawaz and he's awesome. He is very helpful and the class is easy. I spend 3 hours a week on Monday's completing the entire week's worth of stuff, and I have over a 100%. Take him for sure.

I've heard of wait times up to an hour. I had a 20 minute wait Saturday.
