Dr. Coburn is very accessible and easygoing. She exhibits an optimistic and caring attitude during her lectures, which are quickly paced and heavy on content. Even though course material is challenging, homework problems from the textbook are graded on completion, with online quizzes provided weekly and a single note sheet allowed on each exam.

Coburn is an alright teacher but good if you are ready to learn without the pressure of grades. The tests are identical to problems in lecture/homework, and sections are super organized and teach you a lot. Lectures themself went slowly but lots of time was spent on each problem, and it took very little work outside of homework.

Seems most people either hate or love Dr. Coburn but as long as you go into it without the notion that you're getting an easy A & actually study - you'll do well in her class. She is a bit tough to reach outside of class & does make calculation errors in her slides but the study guides prepare you well for the midterm/final + cheat sheets allowed

so cutie patootie i love her

Dr. Coburn's PSTAT 120A is one of the best options you have if you want to get A. However it might not dive in as deep as other 120A. The only imperfection of her is that she will never respond to your email. Other than that the class is generous on giving As. section attendance required and hw graded on completion.

Professor Coburn's class is easy and she is a nice person. She is also not a tough grader. However, the lecture is always behind the homework, and she does not respond emails. She teaches way too slow, and we were not able to finish all the materials we need to be prepared for 120B.

Professor Coburn is a very easy professor, graded 50% on section attendance and homework (which was graded on completion). She, however, taught the material very slowly and would often lag behind assigned home work. Her in class examples were very simple while the homework was very complex. I didn't learn a lot.

I took Coburn for 120A my junior year and didn't love her as I felt like she didn't teach us enough. This course, on the other hand, she teaches very well. It's a lot of fun as 50% of the class is working on a final project and the rest is homeworks that help you with that project. She's genuinely fantastic at teaching this class.

She is a fantastic professor in all aspects. My only qualm with her is her unresponsiveness over email, but this is mostly because I don't go to class :)

Coburn is easily one of the sweetest and kindest professors, but i was not a big fan of her teaching style. Lectures are very theory based, which doesnt transfer over to the homework and midterm material. The midterm and final are extremely difficult, I got a C on both exams despite studying 20+ hours for each and going to office hours

Don't expect an easy class, times have changed. 30% midterm, 30% final, 40% basically guaranteed. Tests were graded nicely, but it was hard to solidly learn any of the concepts at all during lecture. She was a cootie pootootie and really nice and respectable. If she could change her teaching style slightly, learning outcomes would be better.

Exams felt hard, and the slides didn't help me study for them. The only resource that was given is a list of textbook problems, but I would have appreciated having actual practice exams since many times the questions end up being different. HW and quizzes are graded on completion, so if you're unable to keep up, you may end up cramming at the end.

120B itself is extremely hard but Prof. Coburn does her best to make it easy on students. Homework is graded on participation, has EC, she's flexible if you're struggling, v helpful in office hours, & puts tons of effort into making clear lecture slides. TAs were awful at grading tho so check your graded midterm. Class moves v fast so study hard.

Dr. Coburn never cared about the students. Super hard exams and low-quality assignments. Avoid her at all cost.

So many mistakes in her slides. Lecture is a waste of time.

I am not a great fan of unreasonably hard exams, highly disorganized slides, and amateur professorship. Dr. Coburn clearly don't have a good grasp of how to teach. Previously, she gained popularity with easy-A's (which is toxic); now, she tortures the class a lot. I will recommend Mouti or Ravat instead.

I got an A according to my assignment grades + my Gauchospace grade and on GOLD I have a B. I reached out to Coburn about this but she's highly unresponsive so I reached out to my TA TWICE as well. My grade is STILL wrong and probably won't ever be fixed. I just graduated so like whatever but this isn't an issue students should have to deal with.

This class serves as punishment for many of those who takes Coburn's class because they desire an easy A and don't want to learn.

1. Super hard and long midterm that is impossible to finish within 75min. 2. an average around 68 for midterm, no curve. 3. 10 super hard and time consuming challenge homework questions for extra credit, and only worth 1% applied to homework only (basically nothing). 4. Lecture slides full of mistakes. 5. Impossible to reach.

Love Coburn so much. I took 120B and 131 with her. She's the best professor in the stats department period!

As the lecturer who received degree in psychology, I highly doubt her ability of teaching statistics. Calculation mistakes appeared frequently in her ppt instead of essential steps, which she clearly ignored. The average of mid was 60% with 36 students failed. Although she does give freebies and extra credits, BE PREPARED TO LEARN BY YOURSELF!

50% homework and 50% final project, very clear about the grading critera and very very generous about grades. Super nice prof and an easy A for basically all classes she teaches. Never responds to emails though, so go to office hours/lecture for questions. Great professor and I learned a lot.

Dr. Coburn was great. She's a really nice person overall. Also probably the easiest A you can get in the PSTAT department for every course she teaches. One problem is that she never responds to emails so you have to find her in person during lectures. Take her if you want good grades but don't expect to learn deep into the materials.

Truly a wonderful person and even more impressive Professor. Nothing but respect and admiration from me!
