The class is fine- average workload and grading. Your grade depends on attendance, weekly online quizzes, weekly labs, occasional article assignments, two midterms, and the final. He is pretty frustrating as a professor, though, because he'll say things that conflict with the powerpoints or just contradictory things in general. He goes in an order that's confusing and just jumps around. He'd go over certain concepts too briefly which would leave a lot of people confused. The class is definitely doable but I don't think he taught well at all.

This class is meh. The labs are painfully boring though easy. The professor, while occasionally funny, is prone to launching into tangents. I also did not feel that the class truly prepared me for the midterm and final and I had to do weekly tutoring sessions to pass. If you go to his office hours though he is super helpful and will work through problems with you. I also have to say that I missed the 1st midterm and he averaged the score of my second midterm and final exam and gave that to me as my first midterm score, which I really appreciated. Overall you will definitely get the most benefit from this class if you make time to go to office hours and make sure to finish all your labs in lab section instead of putting them off til the last minute.

Decent class, the professor himself was very nice. My main problems were taking it simultaneously with some difficult classes, and forgetting about it until the midterm, in which I was wrecked, and spent the rest of the quarter trying to recover. In general, a meh class with a nice teacher. Textbook was definitely one of the jankiest ones I've ever seen, I practically never used it, just found resources elsewhere which made a lot more sense. Make sure to do the labs completely (some of them they check thoroughly, some not so much) and to go really slow on the quizzes (they are practically free points if you are careful with them).

As you can see from the class distribution, Professor Almohalwas's class is doable; however, this does not mean he doesn't teach. He is genuinly concerned about his students and he actually teaches class materials that are useful. His additional lecture materials he posts are very useful and interesting as well.

He seems confusing at first because his teaching style is a little different. The most important thing that you can do is know everything in the notes he provides and write down all the examples he does in class. To succeed I went to many office hours and asked him to redo profs and all the examples I wasn't able to follow in class. He is extremely patient in office hours and has many of them- so take advantage! Other than that, his tests are fair and directly mirror the in class material.

Professor Almohalwas is such a great professor. He is very passionate about his teaching and is very easy to approach if you have any questions or need clarity. He is very clear about what he expects and makes all of his lecture notes available online. He provided formula sheets for the midterm and allowed 1 full page front and back of any notes you wanted for the final. Overall, great class! If you study you'll get the grade you deserve.

Pretty much the best professor I've ever had. He genuinely cares so much about his students and it always fair. Great lecturer as well, explained the concepts very well. Such a gem of a person, so glad I took this class with him.

Not as intense as Christou, but also covers less content though.

Personally, I didn't find this class to be enjoyable as it doesn't provide much to improve data science skills, at least compared to other stats classes. This class mostly covers different experimental design and when to use them. Think of it as a sequel to 101A, but covers specifically on categorical variables. If you want to go into research, then I could see this class being helpful but otherwise, it lacks applicable skills. Now specifically for Almo's class:
Pros:
- Amazing guy. He's very enthusiastic with the content he teaches, and you can tell he loves his work. His lectures provide deep insights into how each concept works and he even puts in some humor as if to not bore us for too long. He also has so much care for his students because he wants to see us succeed not just in this class but in the future.
- Lenient grader. Bro gave us a take home final open notes and no time limit. On top of that, he adjusted the grading scheme because he saw many people struggling on the midterm. Homeworks were also free points as it seems like it's graded by completion. He was a little more harsh on the project, but as long as you listen to his feedback, you won't fail.
- He records pretty much everything. Lectures are record but even if he has to miss class, he will set up a recorded lecture for us to watch and even provide us an additional video for homework help.
Cons:
- Slides are a mess. Every lecture has over 100 slide that he skims over. He may be a good lecturer but the way he presents it is very unclear. Don't use the slides for help as it's more helpful to take notes on what professor yaps about.
- Exams are confusing. The way its structured is nothing like the homework. Yes it was take-home but it took me probably around 6 hours to complete the final. He doesn't have a practice final, but instead has a bunch of practice problems that he only gives solutions to without an explanation.
- Content he goes over feels redundant. This is a 101B class yet we had to do many concepts from 101A. He still made us to diagnostic plots, factor diagrams, or even flow charts that I haven't done since highschool. While they are easy concepts, it's just busy work that does NOT need to be covered again.

I took this professor during summer so this class was 6 weeks. At first, I was stressed because I felt as though I wasn't learning the material in an organized fashion when I went to lecture. In fact, I didn't really learn that much during lecture. Every week we have a lab due which appears to be a lot of work until I discovered that they were essentially all graded for completion. Everyone I knew got 100% and that was a large part of the grade. The rest of the grade besides the test is pretty much a guaranteed 100% in the gradebook. There are online quizzes but you can find those answers online as well. The tests are pretty easy. He uses identical questions from the textbook and the problems he gives you in the discussion. He is also very helpful in office hours and works with you if you have any grade issues. The tests are easier than I anticipated and I was seriously freaking out about them since I felt like I didn't learn in lecture. In fact, it's pretty common sense and go along with discussion. Even if you don't know how to do a problem, they grade super easily. I thought I missed an entire written problem on the final (out of four written problem) but I still scored higher than 100%. The only issue is that the class lectures are pretty useless, but the material and tests are easy enough that it doesn't matter. Also, if you've taken AP stats that you're pretty set.
