She's so cute I couldn't focus

If you took AP Stats, you can basically not go to class and guarantee yourself an A. This class is free! It’s great! Take it for sure!!!
Honestly, I had an hard grading TA which sucked, but TAs change every quarter and the other TA was a way easier grader, which was unlucky for me but the class basically cushions you for whatever, so it’s allg. I will admit, tho, that I went to my section only once. My TA could’ve been great, and I wouldn’t have known. I just feel like section is so unnecessary for this class— especially two of them a week. There is nowhere near enough content to elicit two sections, but hey if you need them they’re readily available which is great! Honestly another boon for this class if you haven’t taken stats before.
What’s super nice about this class is that, after the midterm, you literally don’t have any pressure on you to learn the content. It’s totally up to you, as the content in the second half of the course isn’t tested at all because there’s no final. Basically, you can tap out after halfway if you ever even had to tap in. The final is a group project which is insanely easy and takes about an hour total to do.
As for the midterm… I found the it to be way more tedious than the practice. It was honestly kind of tricky and not what I anticipated. I think that’s where people miss points in this class— the class can be so insanely easy that you underestimate it. It’s also open note, so talk about non-threatening. The average for my class was a 75%, I believe. Really read carefully, and you’ll do well. Study a bit too if you can.
TLDR; don’t underestimate the midterm and you’ll be set for this class. Take it if you took AP Stats!!!!

I did not like this class. I had a very unhelpful T/A and when I met with the teacher on zoom to ask for help calculating my grade because I was debating dropping the course, she was not helpful. I would not recommend this professor.

This class is ridiculously easy. I basically never went to class and still ended with an A. She is super understanding of you having other classes and so the workload for this class is very light. Also she provides extra credit at the end of the quarter.

This course remained remote for Spring 2022, so I can't say much on how in-person lectures would be. Professor Wang's lectures tend to be quite dry, but she uploads the slides and records the lectures. Weekly quizzes (one attempt) biweekly labs and homework assignments. I went to office hours once and didn't find it that helpful; her responses were curt and didn't help me understand my question any further. The labs are super easy as long as you just copy what the TAs are doing.

A lot of majors, like mine, need Stats 10 as a pre-requisite. I went into the class with no prior experience in stats or coding. The material was a little fast-paced and I did not know that I would need to code for labs. Overall, the class was not too hard. The midterm and final were open-note but took a long time because it was all calculations. Professor Wang was really informative and detailed in her slides but I often had to go back and re-watch lectures or look at the slides to understand the concepts because she went through them too quickly. The weekly quizzes were not hard and were a good grade-booster. Yhis class was a lot easier this quarter than it would have been in person.

As a first year student with no stats experience, I found this class easy and interesting. The zoom meetings are optional because she uploads them on CCLE. To receive participation points, you must take a small quiz that has unlimited attempts. The chapter quiz are a little difficult but if you review the slides, you're okay. The Labs were the only thing I had some trouble with, but attending TA meetings allowed me to understand the material. If you are looking to enroll in this course, I really recommend it with Professor Wang. Good Luck!

Good class, good teacher. Really helped to know R in this class, made it so I wouldn't have to go to section ever. All he would do is screen share videos of himself explaining the R coding assignments anyways. Like... wtf?

Professor Wang is so sweet and accommodating. She really cares about all of her students' well-beings, and was always lenient with deadlines in response to crazy real-world current events. I loved this class! I was disappointed at first that I did not get Professor Cha as all of her reviews are raves, but I ended up so grateful that I got Professor Wang.
Lecture attendance is not mandatory, and neither is section attendance. All you have to do is take a short participation quiz that you can take as many times as you want until you get a 100. The midterm and final are very straightforward and similar to the weekly quizzes. The TAs do a good job of explaining the labs, and they are a lot easier than I expected them to be. I HATE coding, but it was very manageable! I highly recommend this class.

This class is a very easy A and I absolutely love the hands-on experience you get with R labs. However, if there is a better professor to choose from, I would definitely go the alternative route. While Wang is super sweet, she also just reads straight off the slides. I love stats, but I found her lectures to be painfully dry and boring. They can also get extremely confusing at times and combined with the lack of engagement, I found myself really dragging myself to the finish line by the end of the course.

Overall, this class will not make you cry, it just might make you super bored. The labs are AWESOME, however, if you're interested in coding or a future in data science/stats. I had no prior coding experience, but if you listen to the TAs and watch the discussion lectures, it's super manageable.
