Nothing that you learn in class had ANYTHING to do with what is on the THREE tests you take that determine your entire grade. If you have not taken stats he will teach you nothing.

This was the most miserable course I have ever had to take. He harps on the same two real world examples all semester and I feel as though I am being "taught" something different in lecture vs. the post class materials vs. lab section vs. homework assignments.

250 students in the beginning of the semester. 100 left by the end of it. That should tell you a lot about his classes. BTW im not talking about add/drop period, they left right before the final

Not impossible to get an A or A- but you’re gonna have to grind. The optional sections he offers are not optional. Attending those sessions and reviewing the lecture notes after class will be crucial for success because the lectures are all over the place.

Save yourself. If you're a freshman, your GPA won't forgive you.

Whatever you do don't take this class. He is the worst teacher and an even tougher grader. You will dread waking up in the morning to go to this class. He makes me want to cry every day
