Reviews for Roxanne Lefkoff
Average Rating:| Anonymous Course: BMGT350 Grade Expected: B May 12, 2012, 10:12 pm | She is a crazy lady, but lecture is very entertaining because of it. She runs around the room talking to the class and trying to get everyone excited. Lecture is very enjoyable for her class, I enjoyed it and I reccomend going. As for her tests I found them to be incredibly challenging and are worth a huge chunk of your grade, I believe the breakdown is 26% 27% 27% for her 3 exams. No final which is nice, just a class project. I thought the exams were VERY challenging, she uses a great deal of stuff from lectures mixed in with vocabulary. I got the hang of it by the last exam, but I escaped with a 80% by the hair of my chin. So in summary, she is a fun lecturer, but there is probably someone a little easier. |

She really tries to mix up class and engage people. Unfortunately, the subject matter and material are pretty boring. Exams are tough so study details. Its really the multiple choice that gets everyone. Also, get her to grade your case paper. The TA for this class was HORRIBLE |

BUT DO BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU TAKING HER CLASS because her exams are fully based on EVERYTHING SHE SAID in class and extensive detail (not bold) in textbook, sometimes even include SMALLEST DETAIL in video you watched several chapters ago, her questions are some what tricky and very easy to mislead you. I completely hate her exams which was 93% of all grades. |

As far as 350, she was..eh. Her tests were pretty easy and straight out of the book, so definitely have to study that a lot. 5 case studies are graded tough, make sure you put effort into them. Group project was really easy, as there was no written deliverable. |

Uses the powerpoints from the book, 3 quizzes (1 dropped), case studies, 2 exams, a final, and a group project. No class participation or anything. I spent all semester not going to class because the powerpoints were online but it cost me on the final. A lot of her questions came from stuff she explained in class which made pulling an all-nighter going through slides and online material before the final not too effective. I would recommended going to class regularly and keeping an ear open as you are on your laptop on facebook or whatever, it'll be worth it on the exams. i was pissed at myself for getting a B in such a simple class. |

She is a fair grader, especially on the group project. Her exams are multiple choice and are straight from the text and lecture. Very easy if you study. The second exam and the final are a little bit tougher than the first exam so make sure you actually read the material. If you show up to class, read the material and do well on the group project then you will get an A. |
| dm Course: BMGT350 Grade Expected: A August 24, 2010, 2:27 pm | I really liked her style of teaching. I felt that she made an effort to teach the subject in a more practical, rather than a theoretical fashion. Albeit she didn't give us a review sheet and such for the exam, she did tell us specifically that her exams were based on the MCQs on the textbook's website. True to her word, 60% of the questions came from the text's website. She has a knack for the subject, and especially if marketing is not your major, you should really take it with her because she makes an effort to teach it in an interesting manner. |
| Nancy Course: BMGT350 Grade Expected: a August 4, 2010, 1:08 pm | This professor is one of the worst i've encountered in my whole life. She is completely sarcastic and a careless human being. When i took this class she seemed like an ok professor but as the semester progressed she became careless and very rude. She gave no reviews for the exams and was not polite when it came to asking questions in class. The only thing she does is talk about her sons. If you can avoid taking her, do it!! |

| Anonymous Course: BMGT350 Grade Expected: A August 22, 2008, 10:18 pm | Great professor. Boring powerpoint presentations, but what do you expect? Study the book and the practice questions on the book CD; they will appear on the exams. Make sure you participate a lot because she does NOT just give 100%'s on participation to anyway (you wont get above a B-/C+ on participation if you simply show up and don't talk). very straightforward material if you study the book. she's a great professor and does her best to engage her students in discussion. After all, that's the best way to learn marketing. |
