Most Helpful Review
Fall 2020 - Although I have taken some great classes at UCLA, I have to say that Econ 102 with Professor Geerolf has been the most interesting and informative class I've taken at UCLA hands down. The first few weeks of class are admittedly difficult and confusing as he provides a mathematical and theoretical foundation for the rest of the class, but as the class progresses, it becomes clear that there is a method to his madness and the more interesting arguments he makes later on in the class can only be understood through the theories he teaches at the beginning. Professor Geerolf's class reshaped how I viewed economics and provided me with a markedly stronger perspective on current events (particularly related to the economy). For those willing to put in some effort to learn something interesting and of value, I cannot recommend this class strongly enough.
