Goes pretty fast in lectures, be sure to pay attention. Works for this specific class because none of the material is difficult to grasp, it's just a lot of material. R-related questions on the exams tested very specific details on console output. Adjust your studying methods accordingly after each exam.

This class was based heavily on exams (three midterms and one final), with section participation worth 10%. Although exams were difficult, she indeed gave generous curve -- my raw score was B but I ended up getting an A. Make sure to study a lot, do hw practices, and read the textbook though she didn't require if you want to get good grades.

i have had this professor before and didn't like her. you basically teach yourself the material, all she does is read off the slides, and give very few examples. the concepts were doable but i had to teach myself everything, no point in going to her lectures. as a professor she sucks, and is basically very useless.

Don't take this class period. Worst professor I've ever had in my life. Also took PSTAT 10 with her, which I didn't do too good on. Please take this class with some other professor if you want to pass your major class.

Lecture: OK grading proportion: Too much for exams: 2 midterms 35%,final 45% exam contents: rubbish, did not ask you the syntax, but many questions of output which is over-detailed and useless. E.g. the difference of ' in the output(without prior notice), the practice question is very simple so it may confused you that the exam is simple.
