This class was really insightful and I learned a lot, one of the better STAT classes that I have taken. He cares about your learning and not your grade, so I was never stressed the entire semester. Each assignment is essentially scaled up by 5 points, so I got 100's on most assignments even though I made some mistakes. HW's can be a bit tricky but he usually gives hints on what to do and you can solve them with what you learn in lecture. The only complaint I have is that he often goes very deeply into theory which makes lectures hard to follow. |

I honestly loved this class. I cant recommend this professor enough. He cares about this students a lot and really wants them to succeed. Honestly my favorite stat class I took here. |

He's a very sweet guy, but he really doesn't do a good job at transitioning students from stat 400 to stat 401. Lectures will go very fast usually, and these lectures would be very theory heavy, lacking examples, and wouldn't feel relevant to the HW/exam questions he'd give out. Most people did well in this class, but for me I really needed a clear idea of what he was basing his questions on, so I ended up struggling a lot in the beginning. Exams were very similar to the practice exams he'd give out, they were made basically so that if you can understand what to do in the practice exam you'd be fine for the real one. HWs were very hard, he included a famous proof once on there for us to do. You should treat this class more like an easy 400 level math class, a lot of theory is involved and the conceptuality of stat is kinda left behind from stat 400. |
