Fall 2018 - Worst class I have ever taken at UCLA. Went every lecture at 8am, went to every discussion, did the homework problems and still got a failing grade. I have never felt so dejected in a class. Prof Hahn really expects you to master the concepts that he went through only once. I'd say you can only do well in his class if you put in 3 times the amount of effort you put into an average class. He also speaks quite condescendingly when you ask him about material from the lecture and replies you with yea I went fast because you should have already known and read this before. Lectures were okay but did not explain some concepts well. The exams were a horrendous time crunch and it was all MCQ so you don't get partial credit for work done if you don't arrive at the correct final answer. You don't have time to think, once you read the question you should have the entire solution in your head. I read the reviews on here and thought that it was an exaggeration but the exams are actually horrible. Overall, unless you have a strong background in stats or are willing to put in extra effort, I would not recommend taking ECON 41 with this professor.
