Great explanation on lectures! Homework assignments not heavy! Accent is not not a big deal! Attendance not mandatory! Lecture material is not extremely hard overall! Everything seems just so nice except that if you expect to see something that you have learned on the final, Im so sorry its going to LET YOU DOWN.

You will enjoy this class if you like being under pressure to go fast. Treats the syllabus like a bible and offers no flexibility on deadlines. Internet slow that day? Too bad. I don't think anyone saw that hard final coming either. Gave us too little time, and threw curveballs which we've never seen before. Inconsistent vibes.

This class is competitive and people get letter grade based on the average of the class, where only top 20% of the class can get an A. Her teaching style was easy to follow and helpful, but her final was too hard. She purposely made the test hard to down curve everyone's grade

Tbh her lectures were easy to follow, HW was reasonable, midterm wasn't bad (except for the fact she gave us 50mins to do 5 multi-part questions instead of the usual 1h 15m) but the final was TERRIBLE. 1h 30 mins to do 10 questions, and at least 3 of the questions were things we had never learned.

Gives Audio only lectures. Problems on the final are totally unrelated to lecture. Avoid if you can. But you can't avoid since she teach PSTAT120A every quarter.

Decent option for this class. Lectures are kinda boring/drawn out but informative. Homework was pretty fair and extra practice problems were provided if needed. The midterm was also fair, but it was kinda a time crunch. Main complaints are some final questions being completely different from any practice or homework and long, pre-written lectures

firstly, quizzes were cancelled and was replaced with homework. Her lectures aren't too bad altho she tends to go over the designated 2hr and 45mins ish. midterm was hard and we weren't prepared. THE TIME CRUNCH. 50minutes for the midterm and only 1 hour and 30mins for final. no exam or extra practices prepared us for the final questions.

She's a nice person and her class was organized well since she started using printed notes in lectures instead of her handwritten ones, but everything dropped from a cliff when the final hit: it's not even about how hard it was, it's simply that we've been tested on things we've not learned in class, ever, in anything we've done. Defines impossible

The midterm was pretty easy, except the time was too short. I did every single practice for the exam and 3 of the 10 questions came out of nowhere. They were obscure topics we only covered in lecture. I dont feel like the test really reflected what we learned, practiced, or things we were told were important.

The reason why Ravats ratings are all so different is because she is very inconsistent. I enjoyed the way she taught and organized the class until the final hit. Our final was super rushed and many of the questions were like nothing we had gone over in class. No amount of studying couldve prepared me for that final.

Boring lecturer. Her homework isn't too bad, but the optional "extra practice problems" can be quite difficult and are longer. Time constraints on both midterm and final are ridiculously tight and frankly unfair. Exam wording is very particular and easily misconstrued. Overwhelming amount of material to study (lectures, HW, practice problems).

This is just a terrible class!!!!!!!!! Too much workload and really tense time for midterm and final. Only 1h30 mins for 10questions which involve subquestions on most of the questions on the final. Sounds like an impossible mission to most of the students. Reallyyyyy hard grading policy and soooo much work to do!!!!! NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL!!!!

I was initially worried because of Ravat's bad reviews but the class has been anything but. No attendance required. Has a bit of an accent but doesn't affect understanding. She explains concepts mostly well. Very accommodating with our needs and time zones. She is caring and holds weekly surveys to ask for our opinions. Homework is reasonable.
