Professor Surro is great. His slides are well-prepared, and he explains everything super clear via Campuswire. I would take this class again with him.

This class is great and Dr. Surro is an amazing professor. Quite frank, the best econ professor at UCLA currently. Without a doubt, I would recommend anyone to take a course with him.

If you want to take a core econ course (2,11,102) take it with Professor Surro. He's just the best professor in the department when it comes to teaching. Yes, his assignments and exams are a little tricky, but this guy cares about student learning and wants people to succeed. I've learned so much from Chris and thanks to him I think I've become a better student. Great lecturer and great guy to reach out to. He's just an absolute beast!

Really cool class. We learned about the history of capitalism. A lot of quizzes that were based on readings. Lecture quizzes as well, but those were easy. Data projects and essays made up a bulk of points but were pretty self explanatory. Final project was group so not bad at all.

theres a reason econ 11 is the weeder class for econ / bus econ majors. it's definitely a difficult class, not the worst thing in the world considering surro is very helpful. he provides his students with a good amount of resources for note-taking and test-taking. i would definitely suggest completing all of the problem sets and quizzes to the best of your ability, they're only graded on completion but definitely help to understand the material better. the tests are very, very difficult. there's a limited amount of time to complete the questions, which is the main reason they are so hard, so make sure you can be a fast test-taker for this course. there's another econ 11 professor who is "easier", i forget his name but if you're able to look into that, i would do so. but still, surro is a great man, this is just definitely a hard course.

Chris is the man, he makes it engaging and is probably the most clear professor I have ever had in econ. Practice set each week that takes an hour or two but other than that it's a midterm and a final. Midterm is hard but very fair and no surprises.

Professor Surro continues to be the best professor in the Econ department. He teaches you exactly what he intends on testing you on and is clear and concise when he teaches. Whenever you see a class taught by Chirs Surro it should always be an indication to take it.

Professor Surro is definitely my favorite professor so far in the Economics department. His explanations in lectures are incredibly easy to understand and speaks with great clarity. He also gives a great amount of resources to study from after a tough midterm and is very approachable. His grading schemes are also very kind and gives you many opportunities to succeed.

The class is tough, there's nothing else to it. If you do not study or review the concepts, you will do terribly. However, Professor Surro is a fantastic lecturer and gave all of his students many opportunities to do great. Problem sets + quizzes only took 4-5 hours a week as extra credit and were great for providing some confidence before the final. His policies + curving were also fantastic. The midterm average was a 60% and the final average was a 69% raw. While it is hard, the course is definitely possible to do well in. Not a fan of the material, a massive fan of Surro however.

This class was definitely a tough one for me. The concepts are extremely difficult to grasp, especially over zoom, and so I definitely struggled with it. The coursework throughout the quarter was definitely manageable, but, the exams were something else. The time constraints and difficulty of the questions made it super difficult for almost everyone I know.
