Harding's lectures are pointless; there is absolutely no need to attend class because he just reads from the book, word for word. If you think about it, that's actually a very nice thing because you have an 8 am class that you do not need to go to. I went to 2 or 3 lectures total (plus the midterms and final) and got an A in the class. All you need to do is read the book, do the practice midterms because his exams are pretty similar to those and go to section.

Professor Hou spends half of class talking about himself and his wife, and not about economics. While his stories are sometimes interesting, they don't help you to understand the material. Just make sure to read the book, because he throws in a lot of definitions and such on his exams.
