Amazing professor! Teaches 120A only in the summer, so don't miss it if you need it. Lectures are amazing, exams are fair with a clear and helpful formula sheet. Does not give A- B-, etc simpliy because they don't like it (90+ is an A, same for other letters). Overall an amazing professor. Also provides many insights on academic life in general.

Makes statistics VERY easy. Compared to other stats classes this is very manageable. Very clear teaching and provides examples of all problems that will be on exams. So as long as you learn how to do each of the problems during class, you will do good on the exams. And if you ever have problems, he was always able to explain how to fix it.

the lecture slides and the practice exam are really helpful for study.

Professor Miller is probably the best professor I've had in the stats department so far. I took 120A in the summer and thought it was going to be extremely difficult but professor Miller's lectures made everything clear and the practice exams were pretty similar to the tests and definitely prepared me.

Amazing professor! Professor Miller was truly one of my favorite professors that I've had at UCSB. They made lectures engaging and made sure that everyone who asked questions fully understood the concepts. They explained all the content and noted what would and wouldn't be on exams. Highly recommend taking a class with Professor Miller!

They are such a great professor. Gives so many resources to study from and the exam reviews are just like the actual exams. Exams are also pretty easy and they give a lot of partial credit too. Wish they taught 120B as well. Lectures were easy to follow albeit a little boring at times. One of the best professors I've ever had and highly recommend.

Great Professor, cares about their students. The course grade was based 80% on exams, but they were extremely fair and the exam practice prepares you well. If you have the option to take them for the 120 series, definitely go for it.

Professor Miller is awesome, I highly recommend taking their class. I had never taken a stats class and I found it so easy because everything on the exams was taught in lecture and on the hw. Just do your work (which is super manageable) and you'll be fine and get a lot out of the class.

He's amazing.

the most boring professor I have ever experienced, they go so slow and have the most monotone voice. Never fell asleep in class until taking pstat5ls, easy but genuinely hell

Professor Miller is an amazing professor, you need to take them. Not only do they care so much about their students but they also put so much effort to make the course clear. The course is graded on section attendance, homework, and tests. If you redo the homework and go to lecture, you will be more than fine to do well.

I really loved taking PSTAT 120C with Professor Miller! It really made me interested in the stuff we learned in the class and the homework wasn't too bad, as long as you put in good effort! The exams were kind of the tough part for me, but as long as you review in depth the concepts covered in the class, it shouldn't be too bad and very doable!

This is the professor you want for any PSTAT class. Lectures explained topics to a tee and there was never any sort of curveballs on homework or exams. Clearly cares about their students and was very realistic in their content and expectations. This department needs more professors like this.

Professor Miller truly cares about each of their students. The lecture material was explained very well, and the lectures were interesting and funny. Professor Miller is extremely passionate and does a very good job at keeping the lecture enjoyable. The class was not too difficult, and review sessions and practice exams were very helpful.

This is a teacher that cares. It's not a super difficult class but there's a decent amount of homework. They present the information very clearly in each lecture and prepare you well for the exams. Super friendly and helpful. The class material itself is a bit boring but they do what they can to make it an engaging learning experience.

they clearly care about their students' success. its an easy class, but there's a good amount of homework

I got a C+ and it was only becuase I didn't go to lecture as much as I should have. This class is extremely easy and passable if you study concurrently, literally you will only get an A if you go to class.

This class was fairly easy. I STRONGLY encourage actually taking time on the weekly homework assignment, and making sure every problem is understood. Slides and recorded lectures are posted if you are not able to make it to lecture. Section attendance is required. Actual tests are not bad, just do practice test. Overall great professor who cares!

easy A, good lecturer. lots of hw, easy tests

I feel like this class is harder than most people say it is. There are so many little niche things about stats you have to really write down everything in lecture and make notes on what you did wrong on homework to really understand, as even the wording can mess you up. Miller clearly cares though.

I liked this class a lot, the only thing I was stuck on was the coding but honestly the class is so easy. Just do the practice exams and make sure you really study the notes. Also do the homework everyday and don't put it off because the coding makes it confusing.

The lectures are very boring but the professor is very passionate about stats! Focus hard on the language you use when writing on midterms and finals, the professor will mark you down if it's the wrong wording. R coding might scare you at first but it's just tedious. Make sure to complete all reviews, it'll help you a lot for the tests.

Professor Miller is an extremely caring professor and the class is easy to receive an A if you put in the work (which I did not, whoops). Lectures aren't mandatory and are dreadfully boring, but they go through many example problems to help grasp concepts. Sections only helped with homework but literally had zero correlation with lectures.

Professor Miller is amazing! The course is graded on ECoach journals, section participation, homework, two midterms, and a cumulative final. The lectures were engaging, but attendance isn't mandatory! Lectures are recorded and then posted on Canvas with all review w/s as well. I would say the class is very easy if you put in the effort!!
