Professor Holmes is a super sweet lady. If you go to lecture and section and do a little bit of studying outside of class, you'll be completely fine. 2 midterms were multiple choice and final was free response. Class was curved.

Theres two midterm and they are multpile choie

Dawn is a really nice old British lady. She uses an overhead projector & transparencies to lecture, which are a little hard to see & a little unorganized at times. The first midterm is SO easy, just understanding definitions. The 2nd midterm & final are more difficult but doing the optional homework helps. Midterms are MC & final is FR. Lab is drag

I struggled at first, but started going to office hours and it helped a lot. She's willing to help you. Go to all the lectures and pay attention because she really drops a lot of hints about the exams.

Little british lady who is funny. Go to class and do well. 3 midterms weeks 3, 5, and 7 and a final. Read the textbook and understand topics and you will do well.

Respectable professor but the way this class was handled by her is something that I would not agree with. Grades are based on exams only, and the tests themselves are not as clear in most cases. I would recommend taking this course with any other professor than professor Holmes

It could be a very easy class, if you pay attention and stay on top of things. You have to go to lecture and pay attention if you want to do good on the two midterms and final. Easy to fall asleep in beware. Most boring class i've ever been in. Also to have taken stats before is highly recommended.

She reminds me of my grandmother if my grandmother was British and went on long tangents that somehow do with statistics. You have to go to class if you want to class. Section uses excel, which is useless for the actual class. All together cute women but I wouldn't take the class again. Homework is optional, so thats where she gets test questions.

GO TO LECTURE! She gives out tips and hints for for upcoming midterms and final. The lab section doesn't help because excel doesn't come up on any test or final. Her notes are easy to understand. Look at the textbook to understand what the terms means and extra help. DO THE HOMEOWORK, IT HELPS FOR TESTS! Tests are easy if you know what you're doing

Teaches clearly, though a little boring. Her tests reflect her lectures, though they can be a bit tough. She posts weekly homework sets, but she doesn't always post practice tests.

Holmes is a great teacher and is super nice. She teaches according to the textbook which I found very helpful bc the book has great practice problems, some of which are on her exams. Do all the practice problems in the book and you'll be well prepared for tests. I thought I would hate this class, but Professor Holmes made me enjoy statistics!

Cute British lady, very well respected in the Stats world. Attendance in lecture is optional. As long as you do the practice problems in the book as well as the practice tests, you'll be fine. She mixes up things sometimes and goes very fast in lectures, so go to CLAS if you feel like you need it. Definitely buy the book, it was very helpful.

she's adorable. her powerpoint lectures were a little boring, but she taught clearly. she also basically says she wont fail anyone so she sets the curve REALLY LOW on tests and stuff. she's just such a sweet lady. definitely take her classes

Cute British lady. I wouldn't say that lecture attendance is crucial, but she explains things pretty well, so I attended almost always. The book has excellent examples, and section is easy and helpful. Put a little time in and it should be an easy A or at worst B.

Very clear, organized, to the point lectures. Cute lady made whole class laugh, loved British accent. TEXTBOOK written just FOR PSTAT5A helpful/short w/great examples! *DO THE CHAPTER REVIEW PROBLEMS in texbook!* For section, couple easy problems as classwork. Whole grade is 5 tests + section classwork. *PRACTICE TESTS ARE IDENTICAL TO TESTS!* :)

this class is fairly easy. you don't have to attend lecture to get a good grade, just the sections for better understanding of the current problems and if you need any more help, CLAS is an excellent way to get that A. it can basically replace lecture and section.

Very easy class. She is a very, very nice woman and keeps the class simple so it's possible for anyone to get an A with just a little work. Don't be afraid of having a test every other week -- they're short and easy and it really works a lot better than a huge midterm & final. Sections are easy 'cause you get full credit for just doing the work.

To tell you the truth, I took this class before with another professor and got a D so I had to retake it with Holmes. Nice lady and VERY easy class. I never went to any lectures, just read the book and did the practice problems. you have to go to section twice a week and the practice problems are similar to the tests.

Such a great class. Very easy "A" if you just do the work and study a little. The class has 5 tests, but no official midterm or final, so you finish during dead week. If you have difficulty at all, sign up for CLAS and your grade will increase so much.

Lectures are somewhat dry, but direct and they get the job done. Sections are easy. Practice tests are usually very similar to tests, but sometimes she mixes it up, so be aware of that. Overall, fairly easy class, if not quite so easy as some make it out to be.

really easy class if you just pay attention..very helpfull lady. enjoyed her class

good prof with a nice british accent. lectures are so easy to follow. ive always been bad with math but i got an A in this class. do the practice tests to study for the exams, they are the same. sections are easy too

She teaches it so clearly, it is hard not to understand it.

This Professor was outstanding. A good sense of humor.
