Terrible professor. The midterm was way too hard, and not enough time was given. A quarter of the class failed - Median 86.5, Mean 77. When asked if she would curve, she basically said that we would have to wait until the end to see. The final was not a take-home exam and was a longer midterm that was even more time-constrained. It was 6 questions, about 4 parts each, in 90 minutes. She said in some announcements that terms did not need to be simplified on the exam, but docked people for not simplifying. Respondus Lockdown Browser was having constant issues across the board for many people. Not enough practice was given, and the exams were wildly different from the study guide and homework. I also suspect she uses ChatGPT to write some things for the course, given the random bolding and emojis in a lot of the materials

The only saving grace is that the class might be curved, but who knows? The syllabus says grading is done on a straight scale. I am writing this after the final and before my final grade

38% final, 35% midterm, 20% HW, 7% class participation

1% extra credit was offered for filling out the course evaluation

This is coming from someone who earned As in Physics with Corbin, Math 32A/B, and Math 33A, and achieved a significantly above-average score in CS35L with Eggert. This is by far the worst class I have taken

Professor is very dry and boring, a quarter of the class failed the midterm, attendance matters which sucked since her lectures were awful. I think if you put in effort youll be able to get a decent grade but yeah not an easy A for sure but also not a wow this is the worst class ive ever taken in my entire life. Also the textbook is so hard to digest by yourself so that sucked too. Lectures are audio recorded but not visually so another bummer. Midterm worth 35 final worth 45 participation 7% hw the rest

Attendance was required and part of the grade :(

I liked Professor Wang's class. If you actually go to the lectures, you will learn what you need to complete the homework and do well on the midterm. I will say, the lecture goes pretty fast, so you don't really have time to ask questions or process during lecture. I missed one lecture (they are not recorded) and the lecture slides are difficult to parse if you are not there in person. There is one in-person midterm and a take home final. The homework was relevant to the lecture material, and similar to the midterm, which was actually easier than the homework. She gives us a short break in the middle of each lecture which is nice too. Professor Wang takes attendance during each lecture, either through roll call or a super short attendance quiz. Overall, I would take Professor Wang again.

This was Professor Wang's first time teaching Stats 100A, and I think it showed. Lecture was incredibly dry, and she wasn't the best at explaining how to apply theorems to problems. Lecture was way too heavy on derivation, and not enough on problem solving or thought process or applicable examples. This led to HW being really confusing at times, but overall they weren't too bad. Tests were relatively easy, with a chill midterm and take home final. Overall, I found this class very mind numbing and boring, but it's not that hard to get a good grade. If all you care about is getting an A, I would take this class with Wang.
