This class was so easy. The material itself is difficult to grasp, but you don't even need to know the topics well in order to get an A. The TA did all of the homework and labs in front of us so I could literally just copy down the answers and not have to do any of the work on my own. Tests/quizzes had 3 tries and were graded easily so you were guaranteed a high grade. I highly recommend this class.

You literally need to have a pulse to get an A. I did not attend a single lecture and was able to get an A+. Granted, the class was online and so the quizzes/tests were open note, but the material is not hard to learn (and a majority of it is common sense).

The HW and the Labs were both pretty easy. If you couldn't figure it out yourself, the TA does it for you during discussion so you just need to copy it.

The tests/quizzes were werid. You get 3 tries on them, but the kicker is that wrong answers are worth negative points. (sometimes I'd get like -4/8 on them on my first try). But after 3 tries you should be able to do decently enough I guess.

Professor Zes is really energetic and passionate about the subject. He approaches the class in a way where learning and applying the methods in class in a practical setting is more important than regurgitating formulas or math. There was one midterm exam that reflected this pretty accurately and was pretty straightforward. In addition to that there were in class homeworks and a final project, both of which were straightforward if you attended and engaged in class. Overall, a class where the final grade figured itself relatively easy and where you can learn cool stuff without stressing about it.

Professor Zes was fantastic and I have absolutely nothing negative to say about him. I have no hesitation recommending taking his class.

The TAs were pretty hit or miss. But that's just how it goes. Plus, you could definitely just watch another TAs review sessions instead and it's no big deal.

zes is AMAZING!! i took this class spring q and he was super helpful and a great teacher! workload was super manageable and midterm/final was online. try to get a good ta for help regarding r studio coding, but my ta was super awesome and helped us with the lab each week!

Professor Zes is really approachable and responsive on Campuswire, and he's got a good sense of humor so lectures aren't as boring as initially expected. He's able to explain many of the Stats concepts in a manner that is easy for us to understand through a combination of examples and analogies. If you have programming background, the coding portion for labs should be manageable. Highly recommended!

I rarely write reviews but I really loved this class. It's structured in a way that you can succeed in the class as long as you read the textbook and understand the discussion lessons in R. I didnt go to the professor OH but I would go to TA OH once a week and would read the book in advance but it was overall never too stressful. Plus quizzes and really fair and the professor is really responsive on Campuswire. Loved this class overall and would take it again :) + the professor is really nice!
