  You won't get an A if you don't make an effort, but he is a good professor and provides real-life examples in his lectures.

  Mr. Jack is one of my most favorite teachers. The material is not hard and is mostly common sense. I blew off the class the majority of the time and still received an A. He may seem arrogant or snooty at first, but if you make the effort to get to know him, he is freaking hilarious and cares a lot for his students. I don't regret taking his class!

  Professor Hopkins is wise because of the vast amount of experience he has done internationally and throughout business. A practical class with group projects and tests that translate into the real world. You can learn a lot from him. Tests and projects aren't bad as long as you put in effort.

  Honestly he is one of the most enjoyable professors to listen to that I've had. The tests and assignments are not hard and he's a really lax grader.

  First day of class the guy bragged about how because he wouldn't round a kid's grade up he got him deported...I feel like that's all you need to know. Dude brags about himself the entire class. Questions center around random lines taken out of the powerpoint slides. Needs to realize people don't take his class because we like the material.

  Another useless, unnecessarily hard class every business major has to take. Tests are hard because of how they are structured. The multiple choice questions are based on random bullet points from the notes that you wouldn't expect to be important at all. The short answer questions are just lines out of the notes with a word taken out. Don't take.

  Not sure how Hopkins has a score of 5. Nobody in the class I have talked to has gotten an A, and the majority of us were previously 4.0 students. Talks about himself the entire class and expects you to know everything he talked about for the test. Is the most arrogant professor at Auburn I have had thus far ... take any other professor.

  Strategic management with Professor Hopkins is a great class! His lectures set you up for the exams in a very strong way, there is one group project, one paper, & 3 tests. Attendance is mandatory but you can miss up to 2 classes and still receive full participation credit. Take the class!!

  Great man! Very understand and laid back! Really wants to help and see you succeed. Tests can be slightly difficult just because it is all T/F and short answer and only 25 questions so it is easy to get a B, but would 100% recommend him!

  Professor Hopkins is great, his lectures are related to the real world and his past experience as an entrepreneur really helps the student connect the dots. We did have to buy the book but I only used it one time the whole semester so I would opt-out of it. 4 exams, study guides for all, and 3 projects, very relaxed though. Take the class.

  I loved Professor Hopkins! He used his personal experience to educate and answer questions. There are three exams and one project. Project is easy if you are passionate about your product. He is a very understanding professor and provides you with a study guide for each exam!

  Group project isn't that difficult. Don't really have to go to class, he lectures on his past experience and it is all in the textbook he wrote. I had two tests and they were online, not too difficult just true/false, fill in the blank, and write in answers. Just have chill members in group project and should be fine. You don't learn a whole lot.

  This class was very interesting and very easy to understand. Mr. Hopkins is a wonderful speaker and has a lot of knowledge to offer in the field of management and entrepreneurship. There are 2 exams, 2 projects, and a leadership speaking assignment. Lecture for class was not recorded so going in person will only benefit you.

  3 tests and a big project. Short tests with only 20 questions so could only miss a few and still not get an A. Not extremely difficult, but definitely a little harder than these other reviews made it seem because there's not many grades. Go to the reviews before the test. Nice guy, but I think there are easier teachers to take for this class.

  One of the best professors I've had. The class is straightforward. He wants to see you succeed. 2 exams (he tells you exactly what is going to be on it), individual elevator pitch, group project, & case paper. All super easy. He's an easy professor. Seriously take him if you can! He is the best.

  Mr. Hopkins is a genuinely nice person with a lot experience on the topics of the class. Show up to class and take notes, you'll have no problem. The only grades are 3 exams (no final), a group project, and 2 case papers (1-2 pages). He uses 2 textbooks, one for the case papers and one for other course content that he uses for exams. Very laid back
