My favorite class is Managerial Accounting, for the purpose that it is my major, but also because the professor understands the students on a personal level. He interacts with us more often outside the classroom.

My favorite classes have always been the small, 50 or less student classes. I have spent time with professors out of class

I am part of the Honors College and students are VERY competitive. Outside of this area, however, I feel that this competition does not hold, which is a shame because building competition among students often increases performance. Although I won't disregard the fact that added competition may also lead some people to feel pressured, I don't doubt that increased competitiveness among the students would be a good thing.

Compared to the institutions I've previously attended, my classes are much smaller and much more focused. Most of my professors and advisers already know my name and I've been here for less than a semester. I appreciate my education here and I'm sure that I will earn a valuable degree in a few years.

Professors are good and bad so you need to know which ones to pick. My favorite classes are my Honors classes where it focuses on critical thinking and discussion. Intellectual conversations occur if you find the right people.

My major had a small class of people so the profs know you at least by face. We didn't have much intellectual stimulation though since my major was one that was geared towards those wanting a job in a corporate environment compared to a job in academia. The classes did not emphasize much discussion and when it did many students did not participate. However,FIU has great opportunities for whatever a person wants to do, so long as you look for them. The graduate courses at FIU do stimulate discussion and their professors are world-renown in their respective fields.

I have always been the type of student that got along without attending Professor's office hours or speaking to TA's therefore few professors might know me by name once the course is over. I wish I had not been the case because I know how important it for Professors and faculty to know you by name, but I will try harder from now on. I have loved every Economics course I have taken because of the challenge it has presented. I love being challenged and proving my intellectual skills. I have never spent any time with professors outside of class ufortunately.I am extremely proud of FIU's accomplishments especially about the Law School and Medical School. I think this will definitely put FIU on the map and increase the value of all of our degrees. I would have never pictured FIU as my ideal school, but I am now proud to attend it and actually consider it the best times of my life thus far.
