CollegeHorrible teaching methods, it was so hard to learn math ONLY through verbal lectures. rarely ever used whiteboard so you never got a visual, very impatient when students had questions. only learned in my section, so going to lecture was pointless. does not curve tests and then proceeded to complain about how bad his reviews are on here???
Professor requires you to buy the textbook for $170 or $90 for the pdf version. He tells students that there is nothing he can do, but he is the one who wrote the textbook and chooses the text for the class. Very confusing lectures and does not explain the concepts as well as the TA. Shoutout to the TA or else no one would get through the class.
Professor Weber is definitely very kind and understanding, however I felt that he didn't convey the material and concepts very clearly. It was hard to understand at times -if you have no prior experience with statistics this class will be challenging for you. However, if you work and study hard on your own it's manageable.
Weber is a really passionate teacher and cares a lot about the success of his students. Sometimes the lectures were a little too hypothetical and got confusing, but as long as you study on your own and do all of the practice book problems ,the class in manageable.
Weber is a great professor who's really passionate about what he teaches. I liked going to his lectures even though stats is pretty boring, but I looked forward to class. The tests were pretty difficult but if you study and go over the book problems you'll be fine. I did a lot better than expected and the TA (Alex Aune) was really helpful.
This class was hard to understand at times because of his accent but after a while you could clearly understand him. There was one midterm and one final with some multiple choice (true or false) and some written problems. The class is also curved so it only benefits some people and hurts others.
