CollegeExtremely unclear lectures, slides are so vague it's useless. Teaches difficult topics as if you already know them. No continuity between lectures (very random). No grading syllabus, no clue which assignments got graded, no place to check your grade until it showed on GOLD, and no response to emails. Even TA's felt lost. Terrible experience!
Horrible course. NO feedback during the whole quarter. You even don't know the grading criteria.
Nice person but not very accessible outside of class. Lectures are lackluster, expect to self study a big portion of the class. Dont expect to leave with good knowledge of mathematical statistics.
I just self-studied for all the materials and got an A. Exams become easy if you can 100% solve all these practice problems.
The instructor was largely unresponsive to emails, including inquiries about the final exam. Even the TA had difficulty reaching her. Lectures were minimal and lacked depth, requiring significant self-study to truly understand the material. If you're looking for a course with strong guidance and engagement, this might not be the best choice.
Good professor with knowledge of the subject. Straightforward in their expectations and lectures.
