PSTAT130 . Swenson J S 4 Months Ago

The class is entirely online except for the midterm and final, which are worth 30 and 40% of grade respectively. If you have questions, go to office hours; she is super helpful and really wants to make sure you get the hw correct and understand material. Tests are tough, but if you review lectures a ton, you will do well.

PSTAT130 . Swenson J S 4 Months Ago

One of the worst professors in the department. Does NOT care about a student's success, only about TAs getting grades "done." Does NOT help you understand and makes it difficult to get questions answered. Does not teach and releases the same videos every quarter. Shes lying when she says she refreshes the material.

PSTAT130 . Swenson J S 5 Months Ago

I had almost 100% for everything except midterm and final, yet still barely made it to B+, and the homework was really different than lecture contents. Both exams are worth 70% of the grade in total, and the things she tests you on are just so pointless. The practice final is 10% related to the real final, and good luck with the rest of 90%:)

Swenson is a sweet person, and explained course content in a thorough and clear manner. While lectures are online asynchronously, I recommend going to her office hours, hosted during class time for help with homework questions. Beware of the detailed midterm and final worth 70% of your grade (I could only get a C+ with a generous curve).

PSTAT130 . Swenson J S 9 Months Ago

Although the homework was fair and straight to the point, the midterm and final were extremely difficult and unfair. Many MC questions if code was ran the answer would still be the same. Tested on many small minute things that do not help you gain further knowledge. However, she does curve the class grade at the end.

Homework is not correlated with lecture.
