She is really weird, cannot understand her at all! Had a living hell in that class thankfully she curved it and there was a HUGE curve that brought my grade up from a D to a B.. I was lucky though so be aware of taking this class, if math is not your biggie do not take this class!

She is not a good lecturer. I got more out of my sections than I did out of class. It's hard to keep up with what she is saying and her notes on the overhead are illegible which confuses and causes you to lose focus. I would not recommend this teacher.

She's one of the nicest teachers I've had at UCSB. However, she consistently assigned way too much homework each week. The midterm was very hard, but she allowed one page of notes for the final exam since so many people failed the midterm. She says she doesn't curve, but she must since I got a better grade in the class than I should have.

Not all that great a lecturer. Use of overhead projector made it hard for much of the room to see what she was writing. Her exams are fair, and providing us with past exams is EXTREMELY helpful. Her replacement, after she left for medical reasons, Brian Wignall, was a better lecturer who gives better insight into solving problems.

I took this class only because it was required for my major. I thought that the midterm was do-able... but the final was out of this world hard. The class itself was boring. I went to office hours several times to get help and left there with as much knowledge as i did when I came in there. i hadnt taken Calc in a while. So this class was hard. :(

this class was really boring. but it actually wasnt that hard. i failed the midterm and still ended up with a B in the class. Only took cuz it was for my major dont take it otherwise. realizing though it is a billion times easier than 120b

she is a really nice teacher and the tests are not too hard as long as you have done the homework. the class boring and not really very interesting.

she is really nice....but not a very good teacher. she knows her stuff, but she doesn't really know how to get it across. she talks about theorems and expects you to apply them. if you haven't already taken stats dont take her.

very helpful, not the best professor I've ever had, but by no means the worst either. She gives out handouts during lecture so you dont need to take notes. Tests are fair if you study. You won't regret taking her class.

She is an extremely nice teacher. Very clear. There are handouts for everything. Fair tests.

A good teacher, not great. Very warm and helpful. The grading was fair. 25% homework, 25% midterm, 50% final. And her tests were a direct reflection of what she taught. Plenty of handouts in class that outlined all the formulas you'd ever need to know.

She does not know much statistics. She is the weakest person. She should rather teach in a school.
