This class was very interesting and had basically no workload. Prof Karlan has a lot of experience in the field and talked about his personal experience in the real estate industry. To study for the exams, it is best to actually pay attention in lecture and also play around with the excel spreadsheets he provides. Not much studying is needed at all (the book questions are a waste of time IMO)

Grading is as follows:
Participation: 10%
Midterm: 30%
Final: 60%

The curve is generous as well. I got a high 80s raw score on both the midterm and final and got an A.

Overall this class was informative and good but a bit boring. Professor Karlan and the 2 TA's are very helpful. He has a lot of experience in the real estate world so he will often talk about the previous work he has done. The class is structured with him discussing real-world issues pertaining to the lecture and then reading off of a summary of the chapter. He really wants all of his students to succeed which is great. I imagine in person the class would be a bit more entertaining, but in an online interface, it can be a bit boring.
