PSTAT223C . Ludkovski M 7 Months Ago

223C with Ludkovski was a great class. It balanced computational methods and the underlying theory extremely well. While the homeworks were very difficult and strictly graded, I learned immensely from his criticisms. They were great practice at testing both my understanding of the theory and my skill with implementing the methods.

The grading criteria was confusing to me personally.

PSTAT170 . Ludkovski M 2 Years Ago

One of the best professors in the stats department. His understanding to financial math materials are unparalleled. Hard exmas and hard homeworks, but office hours are extremely helpful. You are actually going to learn practical stuff from Professor Ludkovski. Strongly recommended.
