Super easy class; take it just as a GPA booster. you never need the book, she goes over everything in class, and the tests are IDENTICAL to the practice tests.
she goes through EVERY step in the problems in lecture (even the things that dont need explaining). she gives you the formulas necessary for each exam, so all you need to know is which formula to use for which problem and where to plug the numbers in. very easy class. plus her accent and certain words she uses makes the class entertaining.
Class is boring, but the she makes the tests easy. No reason to not get an A
This has to be the easiest math class I've ever taken. The teacher is so nice, calm, and fair. She expects almost nothing out of you. Discussions are a joke, you go in and do a worksheet for 15 minutes and leave. Her tests followed the practice tests exactly, and she gives you all the formulas you need on a cheat sheet.
Really easy class! Just do the practice midterms and you'll do great on the midterms because they're exactly the same. Great Prof, goes really slow so it might get boring, but as long as you pay a little bit of attention you'll do great
She is the nicest and most helpful teacher! She'll always be willing to answer Qs or if you have any concerns. She gives practice midterms(3) and Practice final (non cumulative). She gives examples in class and had lecture slides (not posted online), and lab worksheets posted online; you're allowed to do lab and section work in groups. Great teache
Extremely easy class! you don't have to do any of the assigned problems to get an A. I only studied the day of the midterms and the final and pulled off an A. Just do the practice exams and u'll be fine. The material does get harder as the class goes on, but it's still easy!
This class is ridiculously easy. I never went to lectures, quickly went through the practice tests, and came out with an A. You don't need to go to class or do any work besides the practice test to get an A. I even missed a discussion or two. Take this class even if its not required; nice 5 unit GPA booster.
Holmes made this class really manageable. I zoned out every lecture and always waited to learn/study everything the night before the midterms and the final and still got an A.
prof holmes' is awesome. her exams are pretty easy as long as you go to class, take notes, and do her practice exams. she has a european accent; kinda cute, and she throws in a couple jokes here and there. i would take another class with her!
extremely boring class. she's pretty funny though. Easy at first but gets harder.
nice teacher, makes stats as amusing as it can be (not very). lectures are boring and useless unless you're still confused about your multiplication tables and basic algebra.
Easy class and the lecture is pretty much optional if you do the worksheets.
she is totally cool. just print out the worksheets, and you'll pass the tests. we didn't have a midterm or a final. only a test every 2 weeks. very easy class.
you have to be an idiot not to get an A. Some of the tests were exactly like the worksheets. the class was really boring, just go to section.
i loved this class! i haven't taken math in 2 years. i hate math, but professor holmes makes it easy to tolerate. she makes her own tests and makes them so the class will pass. take her class if you have the chance! there is no mandatory homework! big plus.
Best teacher ever. Holmes is funny and makes lectures fun to go to. Easiest A I've ever gotten. No homework and easy tests.
Very funny and caring teacher. Lectures a little scattered sometimes, but if you asked for help or clarification, she is always very ready willing and able to steer the class in the right direction. I had taken a college level stats course in high school,
Very easy class. Cute little british accent and makes jokes. Go lecture and section and you will get an A even if you dont do the homework! (at least thats what worked for me)
This class is not easy at all! Do not take it unless you must! Midterm is easy but the final is so hard and the TAs don't speak english!This class ruined my life!
not easy but not difficult. there's things to remember but study the midterm/final review and you're set. also, get a good TA, some aren't up to par. she also cares a lot about improvement, so if she sees it, she might reward it.
I went into this class having not taken math in almost 3 years and all I did was go to class then taught myself everything the night before the midterm and final and got an A. If you study her review problems and practice midterms/final you will get an A! Holmes is delightful and very reasonable.
this class was cake. i missed lectures, didn't even buy the book or do homework. i studied for midterms/finals like 2 nights or the night before, and all i did was fill out the practice ones to study. i had help from CLAS (lubi is awesome!) and my TA hoon rhew was cool too. i got a high A.
DO NOT take this class unless you HAVE to or you are particularly good at math. Dr. Holmes is really nice and will explain anything if you go and see her, but jesus this class is hard. i worked my ass off and got a B-. Practice final/midterms are EXACTLY like regular ones. Do them!
