Quarter: Fall 2016

Mr. Rojas is a clear and quick-to-the-point professor. It is obvious that he cares about his students and consistently interacts with them even though they don't show much enthusiasm or willingness to participate.

I took Microeconomics for a semester my senior year of high school, so I didn't learn any new material. Still, I got a comprehensive understanding of the material and had some concepts "click" for the first time! The weekly online homework is not difficult and the two midterms and final are fair.

Warning: His class is held in a large lecture room with dim lights, comfy chairs, and AC, so it can be hard to stay awake in that class, especially after just eating breakfast!

Overall a good professor. He is a really nice guy with pretty clear lectures. Although he can be a bit boring at times, he gets through the material with a lot of clarity and always asks students to ask him questions before he moves on to the next section. The midterms and final were all multiple choice. As long as you do relatively well on the homework, the tests should be fine. The tests are heavily tailored towards the homework; in fact, the first midterm practically had questions copied and pasted from the homework. The weekly homework was pretty doable, as you had two tries. Discussions were useless; my TA was really boring and very unhelpful. If you don't want to go to discussion, then don't, you won't miss much. I will say that if you took AP Macroeconomics in high school and you need to take this class, you definitely have an advantage over others as a lot of the material overlaps. This is a good class with a good teacher.

Course Breakdown:
Weekly homework quizzes (15%)
Midterms (20% each)

I took Econ 1 with Rojas and it was great!

I am selling the textbook for this course: Principles of Economics 7th Edition by Mankiw (still available for Winter 2017)

He is a very boring lecturer-- be sure to supplement the lectures with study groups and use AAP to make sure you get an A.

I had Professor Rojas for Econ 1.

Overall, his class is taught very well. He puts all the information on the powerpoints online, so it is not a big deal if you miss class. That being said, I'd recommend going to class whenever possible.

His tests are straightforward and tailored heavily to the homework. Write down any homework questions you don't know, as his tests end up being very similar to the homework problems. Practice tests are also extremely helpful for this class.

He obviously cares about the subjects and the students, and the class isn't very hard. I'd highly recommend him as a teacher.

Rojas was an amazing Econ teacher, his class was super straight forward and followed the book. He made it easy to keep up with the information with his homework. The class is competitive but if you do the work you can get an A. I really enjoyed his class. It consisted of Homework, 2 midterms, and a final. Overall I thought he did a really good job.
