Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/11/2023	He is very smart and kind. He gives each student 2 extensions to use no questions asked and makes a lot of jokes in class. Class can be a little boring but if you become friends with your groupmates it helps a lot.
Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/14/2023	Super nice professor and very understanding. He is also incredibly smart, look him up on Google he has a Wikipedia page on his research. The homeworks are due at 2pm before class which is sometimes annoying but he is also very flexible if you ask him for an extension on homeworks and projects. Tests are very similar to the practice that he gives so if you study those, you will do fine. Although the tests are all written word problems and few multiple choice, he gives a lot of partial credit. I would recommend making friends in the class because although he is a nice professor, the work can get tedious. He also gives A LOT of extra credit during class for jeopardy and group activities. I would give him a 4.5 rating if I could
Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting a B Anonymous 11/09/2023	Marty Loeb is such a sweetheart. He is a nice guy who loves making little jokes which often fail, but because he can't tell jokes it's hilarious. Lectures are boring, but if you are an accounting major it should be interesting. If not, the material is easy enough to review on your own to still do well since some of it is a 221 refresher. He gives plenty of bonus points and exams are very fair. I love Marty!
Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting an A- student1230 04/25/2023	Professor Loeb is a nice man and means well. He's flexible with due dates, responds quickly to emails, and gives a lot of opportunities to earn bonus points. HOWEVER, none of that makes up for how awful it feels to sit in that classroom for lectures. I find the class itself boring, particularly because it is just a review and a small extension of what we learned in 221. His voice is boring, he makes tiny jokes that no one laughs at that just make the room uncomfortable, the slides are difficult to understand, there's a group assignment for nearly every lecture, which is difficult to do sometimes because no one pays attention in the class. The MyLab homework assignments are very very long sometimes, but that is not factored into when they are due.
Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/15/2022	I will agree that he is both a reasonable and kind professor. However, his lectures are insanely boring and very hard to stay engaged with. Moreover, sometimes class time will be allocated towards him going over a problem. Occasionally, it can take up to 45 minutes to complete one problem and at times it appears he is unfamiliar with what is going on. Sometimes it even feels like he is in his own world and could just keep lecturing for hours. Nonetheless, he is a really smart guy but does not have the social skills possessed by most professors. He is very good at giving feedback and responding promptly to questions. He will also give test back very quickly. Overall, in some areas he is worse than the average professor but in other areas he is better. I think the areas he is better at are behind the scenes (grading, feedback, emailing, etc.).
Martin Loeb BMGT321 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/23/2022	He is a reasonable and kind professor. However, there are so many homework assignments and the lectures and boring and hard to follow. Thankfully, there is a lot of extra credit and the class is pretty easy. I did like how we were put into groups for the semester and had group assignments. We even did accounting Jeopardy and that was fun. For the exams, just review his slides and be able to do the practice problems he assigned throughout the semester. Reviewing the textbook or homework questions would NOT be helpful.

Martin Loeb BMGT220H Expecting an A+ Anonymous 04/12/2013	Nice guy, very generous grader, but just not cut out for teaching. Very, very quiet and mumbles often. No doubt he's a smart guy, but the class was unbearably boring.
