Overall really nice prof, cares to get to know her students. The disrespect doesn't make sense on here

Good professor with fair grading criteria. Gives practice exams that are similar to the real exams. Kind lady with a real passion for teaching. Brought cookies for our class and gave them to those who participated

Tbh a kind and caring professor. Do not understand the hate on here, she's a very nice lady and definitely cares deeply about her students.

Great prof over all, really cares about her students well being. Talked about wanting to help students get into research and was very willing to give career advice outside of class time. You can tell teaching is her passion, and although her style isnt for everyone I think she was great. Don't understand the negative comments, it's unwarranted.

The only thing that mattered about this class was the weekly two sections. I found her lecture to be hard to understand but easy to learn on my own or through my TA. The majority of the grade is fluff which is nice however I felt unprepared for the final which is our only test. Take her class though because I heard the other ones are harder.

She's fine. If you are planning to take pstat 10, I would recommend her. She talks a lot about how to become a data engineer, which is not so related to this course but related to your future job.

Professor Ravat's PSTAT 10 course was well-structured and easy to do well in. Section attendance is mandatory and very helpful. The only issue is her (optional) lectures are very boring and often not helpful. I suspect this may change in the future, so I see no issue with enrolling in her courses.

honestly one of my favorite pstat teacher. the first four weeks were hard but got easy at the end. midterm was hard but she offered 10% back and the final was similar to the practice and midterm. hw were hard but doable and she has weekly online quizzes worth 25%. she's so well organized and loves talking to study's. she really cares and sweet

Genuinely don't understand the Ravat hate on RMP, I thought she was perfect for this course. Lectures and course structure were very organized. No midterm - just biweekly quizzes that could ALL be retaken at the end. Final was not bad either. Only one hw assignment per week. Made the course very approachable and was always asking for feedback!

Midterm practice questions were not on the midterm. She is the worst PSTAT professor ever, so please do not take her if you want to pass 120B. Awful grading system, and she sometimes skips trivial steps so it is hard to follow along with her.

Bruh half the questions on her midterm weren't even on the midterm practice Also she's pretty incompetent at almost everything about teaching: course structure, lectures, and just explaining things in general. Materials on canvas are frequently incomplete or removed so it's very difficult to review without AI or ULAs/TAs

last quarter i had her and i dropped her class and it was honestly quite a lot better than this one, at least exam wise but this quarter she's regressed, and her class always has some stupid gimmick like incomplete lecture slides and then her lectures suck anyway because it's just a slideshow of a bunch of abstract formulas no actual context
