pstat10 . Natido A 4 Days Ago

chill, witty guy. Accent is a little hard to understand but his lectures are very straight-forward and non-confusing. About 5 homework assignments, 3 exams total. Exams are VERY similar to the homework and he is always willing to help. Tons of curve and extra cred too. Great guy and class!

Overall awesome! He asks questions to the students about how to better the lecture/material. It felt good to come back from exams and be able to talk to the professor about how to potentially improve the performance for the next exam. Go to lecture!! You get extra credit just for being there on the exams and also do hw for extra credit!

He is a good professor. Exams initially did not allow CheatSheets, but after student input, one-sided CheatSheet was permitted. He also offers generous extra credit through lecture participation and homework, which is directly added to exams. Lectures are not necessary. Slides posted on Canvas are sufficient for self-study.

The class as a whole was pretty easy with him. The lectures aren't super helpful and 90 percent of your grade is two midterms and the final. That being said the exams were super similar to the study guides and HW/Labs and were mostly multiple choice. He was very generous with extra credit giving lots of points on exams.

Class was fine with a lot of extra credit. Do not appreciate grading because he doesn't give B+'s which screwed over my GPA.

Prof. Natido was extremley nice and he curved the midterms and finals extensively giving out plenty of extra credit. My grade is 10% higher because of that and I can't image how big of a differnec it was for others. His lectrue weren't super helpful but I would still recommend going. would defiently take him again though
