There is one online lecture, but it is actually three self-paced videos each week. Each video has questions, and you get credit by answering just one correctly. She really tries to make the class easier for everyone and grades generously. I like professors like this. I recommend TA Monte's section—very responsible and attentive.

Professor Swenson is such a clear teacher and she is super nice! The class has two lectures with one being online. She will post videos that you can watch at your own time. There are two midterms that are multiple choice and a final exam that is free response. If you do the homework and you pay attention in class the course should be pretty easy.

Lecture videos are clear and well-explained. I went to office hour for five times to listen to her explanation on homework. It was totally worth it. She has the ability to explain every concept clearly. Mid-terms are multiple choice. The lab questions are a bit confusing. The Final exam is harder but if you really study, you will get an easy A+.

she's super kind and i really enjoyed the class. tests are heavy but nothing that you haven't done in class already. very straight forward

she is awesome. i took stats in high school and hated it, but after this class i genuinely want to switch my major to stats & data science. love that lady

Took over summer and was very fair and did a curve. Make sure to watch all lecture videos and study the homework/lecture exercise code and you'll be fine.

Yes the lectures are well organized, yes the professor is helpful, and yes the lectures are online so you can chill, but all of this doesn't help offsetting the absurdly difficult midterm & final as you HAVE to MEMORIZE EVERY SINGLE WORD on lecture. I am highly against such a pointless and discouraging way of assessing student's success.

I absolutely despise how the class was structured, from the separation of coding days / conceptual days to the exams that prioritize memorization over understanding of material. Professor herself was decent and seemed knowledgeable on the topics.

Class material is honestly super easy. The homework is exactly like the examples she does in class. The online lecture teaches you the material and the in person lecture just goes over problems and code. The exams are ridiculously hard basically expecting you to memorize every little thing in order for you to do well.

Prof Swenson is a very thorough and detailed in her explanations of the course material, and if you show up to all the in-person lectures, the homework will be really easy. Tests are a bit harder, make sure you're finishing those lecture videos all the way through. Some MC questions are tricky. And be prepared to write the code onto paper.

Your TA really determines how well you do in the class, and it feels like you teach yourself throughout the entire course with the way it is structured.

SO sweet, can tell she genuinely cares about the success of her students. Go to her office hours! Even if you don't have a question, learning from other people's questions helped me do really well in this course.

Swenson is super caring and is very accessible if you have questions. If you can, attend office hours for more personalized teaching. The class gets a bit tricky later on with a lot of methods/formulas to memorize but an A is very achievable with good effort.

Great professor who has classes structured to be efficient and self-taught with many chances for support and help. Overall, I would take it again.

Lectures are online, section is learning basic Python and doing worksheets based off the (optional) homework. The material itself was moderate in difficulty. Math required for the class is just simple Algebra and factorials, and a good calculator. Midterms/quizzes were very similar to the homework. If you ACTUALLY do the homework, youll be fine.

Professor seems sweet, but if you don't have a good TA you're screwed. She posts lecture videos then recaps them (at a snails pace) during the weekly lecture, but it feels as though you're expected to teach yourself. Learned practically nothing about Python, the class was math heavy. Can't emphasize enough that your experience depends on your TA.

great lecturer, extremely helpful online videos, quizzes are basically the same as homework so easy points. The two midterms are easy, the final was a bit hard

You can tell the professor cares about her students, but the class is just straight up challenging. There's a lot of material and it moves fast. The midterms and test are hard and you have to rush to get through all of the questions. The final is free response and takes over 2 hours.

She is such a sweet lady! Unfortunately statistics was such an easy subject for me in high school, but the hybrid mode just doesn't work for me (or seemingly lots of people in this class). With C or lower averages on every midterm for the class, it seems like the review she does on Thursdays (in person days) just doesn't get the job done.

Professor Swenson is really sweet and extraordinarily clear. There were concrete expectations. There was definitely a lot of work to be put into the class with the flipped classroom technique and two sections per week, but if you keep up with it all there's no reason you won't do well.

The class is entirely online except for the midterm and final, which are worth 30 and 40% of grade respectively. If you have questions, go to office hours; she is super helpful and really wants to make sure you get the hw correct and understand material. Tests are tough, but if you review lectures a ton, you will do well.

One of the worst professors in the department. Does NOT care about a student's success, only about TAs getting grades "done." Does NOT help you understand and makes it difficult to get questions answered. Does not teach and releases the same videos every quarter. Shes lying when she says she refreshes the material.

I had almost 100% for everything except midterm and final, yet still barely made it to B+, and the homework was really different than lecture contents. Both exams are worth 70% of the grade in total, and the things she tests you on are just so pointless. The practice final is 10% related to the real final, and good luck with the rest of 90%:)

Swenson is a sweet person, and explained course content in a thorough and clear manner. While lectures are online asynchronously, I recommend going to her office hours, hosted during class time for help with homework questions. Beware of the detailed midterm and final worth 70% of your grade (I could only get a C+ with a generous curve).
