Course Taken: Econ 41 Dr. Rojas is definitely one of the better professors here at UCLA. He's a very kind and diligent person in the way he teaches. He takes the time to answer questions and go slowly through examples, which helped me since I didn't have any stats experience coming in. Even though it was an 8 AM class, I didn't have any problems staying awake or focused since Dr. Rojas has a unique sense of humor and is actually coherent in his explanations. The other reviews were pretty accurate, as he did speak in statistics at times, and made the actual method of solving the problem unclear. Regarding the tests, the two midterms were fair and not too difficult, and the final was challenging. The TA's in this course put a ton of effort towards helping the students, especially Amanda. Finally, the book is really bad! Do as many practice problems as you can (sometimes I actually wished I had more), and try to figure out the concept from the practice. The actual problems Dr. Rojas gives will be much more straightforward mathematically than the theorems in the book.
