so many readings, hard tests, basic concepts of business

The readings are excessive, esoteric, useless, and unfocused. A vast amount of topics are covered, none are specified and Kiousis makes it HARDER rather that easier to understand content covered. Expect to never speak to Kiousis directly, as she will always defer questions to TAs instead and be offended when there is any opposition to her opinions.

This was a great class! Dr. Kiousisis very engaging and cares a lot about students. I loved her lectures and learning about different jobs. I put a lot into the class a s for a lot put of it. A must take for non-business majors!

Definitely a hard course, and the content that you learn will depend on which professor you have. With the case of Kiousis, a lot of the content depended more on readings rather than math, so that was different than professors like Tsolmon. Kiousis was one of the most engaging lecturers that I've ever had, so if you have the chance to take a class with her I'd highly recommend.

Covers a lot of core business concepts in an engaging way. Weekly quizzes can be a bit tough and the final presentation takes time, but helpful resources.

This class was interesting but looking back I don't think I could tell you one valuable take away other than Case Comp. Kiousis is a much better prof if you take in the spring.

MGT200A is definitely an easy A but I don't really think I learned anything. There is really no homework and you don't need to pay attention in class. I guess you will take out of this class what ever you put into it but you can definitely put in little effort and get an A.

Genuinely one of the kindest, most compassionate professors I've had here. Was told to take the class with her by a friend and it was the best decision I ever made! She seems to actually care about fostering good relationships with students and her class was a breath of fresh air. Love her!!

She was the best professor I have ever had. She cares about her student and really wants us to success in life.

Dr. K is a great teacher! She is inspirational and gives great lectures. The case competition in her class is a great experience and the TAs are great!

The test is so hard and the way she gives question is not reasonable at all. There's a free rider in my group, but no follow up was given after reporting the issue.

Great lecturer, but class itself is tedious and can be a lot of work. Overall, was a fun class and very interesting

The professor is good. But the grading criteria is so vague. Participation matters. If you participate in class, you will get a good grade. It is kinda unfair for students who is shy and don't like to answer questions. Even if they try hard and do well in class, they may not get a good overall grade.

Dr. Kiousis is the best professor I have had at WashU! She is an amazing lecturer and kept me interested even when I had a lot going on. I looked forward to going to her class for every session. Also, the case competition was a great experience! A must take at WashU!!!!!

Good lecturer, but most of the homework assignments in this class seem like busy work. The grading criteria is excessively vague, making it difficult to understand how our work is being evaluated.

Dr. K is a fantastic lecturer! One of the most organized and engaging professors I have had at WashU. She uses a lot of real-world examples which makes her lectures feel more applicable and she encourages people to participate despite it being a somewhat large class. Attendance is a must and prepare for a lot of quizzes, but overall great class.

Class is really well organized, uses a lot of practical real-world examples, and she makes the material accessible. If you put in the work, you'll do well in the class. She definitely cares about students learning the material and wants us to succeed. Great class overall.

This was the most valuable I class I have taken at WashU. Dr. Kiousis is a fantastic lecturer and cares about students. The cases were really interesting and everything I learned I used in my internship this summer. I felt like it really gave me an edge over the other interns. Would take another class from Dr. Kiousis any day!

I loved this class! Dr K cares a lot about her students and teaches you about really interesting companies. Inspirational teacher who will take time to talk to you about career interests and job prospects. Go to her office hours if you can!

I learned a lot from this class and Professor Kiousis. You study real companies all semester and do a final project on a company you get to choose. It was one of the most valuable classes Ive taken at Olin.

MGT380 is the worst class I've taken at WashU. Uninteresting material, little to no actual discussion, zero expectations or explanations of what assignments are going to look like, very boring lectures. Could not tell you what my grade will be at any given point in the class. Avoid if you can.

Great class if you want to go into consulting. I really like the professor!

Do not take business strategy with Professor Kiousis. Great woman, but the class is entirely unstructured, expectations for assignments are never clearly articulated, and the amount of reading she assigns is ridiculous.

Professor Kiousis is one of my favorite teachers! She is always available to meet in her office and is extremely helpful. The cases are interesting, and she does a good job integrating them into the lectures. The class is straightforward: if you study the material, you will do well.

Professor Kiosis is one of the best teachers I ever had! She is super knowledgeable and passionate about teaching. She has a very energetic style. If you do the cases and follow the lectures and participate you will do well AND learn a lot!

Loved this class! I learned a ton about real companies. You need to read for class and study for the quizzes. The final project was a lot of work but well worth it. It is a big part of the grade. ... The professor was super nice and helpful!

Great class. Professor cared about students and wants them to learn. Prepare for class and ask questions. Class participation is graded and helped me show how much I knew.

Take it with another professor if you can. Not really open for discussion; she doesn't take disagreements very well. You don't learn much from this class, other than learning about what companies did in cases. The classes are mere recaps of the cases and not much room or creativity/discussion.

Very caring professor, but disorganized. Class is almost completely case based and involves a lot of participation. Case presentations are fun and competitive. Great class.
