Imma keep it real. Dey is one of the easiest professors you will ever have just because he doesn't teach any material and his exams are literally copy pasted from the homework. Not only is the exam the exact same as the homework, he lets you bring in a notes sheet (size of a normal piece paper) with anything you want on it. I had him Spring2025 so I don't know if he will change at all after this semester, but out of all of our classes, he has probably shown up on time to 5% of them. He's consistently 5-30 minutes late for a 50-minute lecture, and most of the time he doesn't even tell the class. Up to this point he has probably not showed up to class 5 times, just making us all sit there waiting. On top of not showing up, he cancels class pretty easily such as 'Oh I have a bad headache so class is canceled'. We were supposed to have two midterms. However, before midterm 2 was supposed to happen, he canceled the entire curriculum and divided the class into groups, saying, 'Since you guys are doing so well in my class, I'm just going to stop lecturing, and you guys can make a project and learn some things yourselves.' LIKE BRUH. And after he makes this change he's MIA for up to three days so we can't even ask him questions about what is happening and what he wants us to do. I was gonna save this review for after the semester was over, but today he scheduled an appointment during his class time and didn't tell his students so we all just sat there AGAIN for 30-40 minutes, and then had the audacity to say he was in his office in an email he sent during his scheduled class period. How is this man even real T^T. On the bright side, his class is really easy and his A grade cut-off is an 85% so you'll be chilling. But if you actually want to learn some statistics and not have your tuition wasted on a professor who doesn't show up, you should choose someone else. He does respond to emails pretty fast tho, even if it is after work hours. This was also probably his second semester teaching so he might make some drastic changes in his teaching style. idk. If you have him good luck o7.
