Great class. Even if you struggle with math/statistics in the past, this class is very straightforward, no tricks here, and Dr. Zanontian is amazing. She is such a clear lecturer and makes it really easy for anyone to learn and understand the material. She writes down everything she says in her slides, and also has videos of her lectures, so if you forget anything it's so easy to look it back up again. She gives plenty of time for her exams, doesn't use trick questions and doesn't give any new material during the week of the exam. She drops your lowest homework and quiz scores and provides tons of assistance on the R labs, which were very manageable. She also instructs the TAs to grade everything pretty leniently. I would always skip discussion/lab and just do the R homework on my own and had no issues, it would take a few hours of my time every two weeks. Some of the TAs also video how to solve the R labs with the exact code you need if you get stuck. I normally attended lecture because Dr. Zanontian is really one of the best lecturers, she's really engaging and the sweetest, kindest Professor I've met. But towards the end, it became difficult typing notes because of all the symbols in the formulas (I should've just taken notes by hand..), so I stopped going and just watched the lectures online and that worked just as well. It's very easy to succeed in this class as long as you watch the lectures and write down all the formulas you need. I highly recommend it and would love to take all my classes with Dr. Zanontian.

Very easy class. All homework and lab submitted electronically on CCLE.

Pretty easy. Heard that the lowest grade given was A-.

Super easy class. All tests are multiple choice.

TAKE THIS CLASS, such an easy course in my opinion, especially if you took any kind of stats class in hs (AP Stats or even regular is just fine). The concepts/material is clear and while Professor Zanontian is a somewhat slow lecturer and actually treats the material as if you have never seen it before, she is nonetheless helpful and concise. Here's the thing, you don't need to go to lecture to succeed, but she does require you to get a clicker for lecture questions. It's only 2% of your grade and she drops the 3 lowest scores so it's not too much of a big deal. Here's the breakdown: There are 2 midterms 25% each (NO FINAL), 18% HW, 2% clicker, 15% labs, 15% online quizzes. Very doable and gives you plenty of time to turn it in. Overall, I enjoyed this class and she is so friendly.

I didn't think this class was very difficult. Professor Zanontian is very kind + understanding. Exams are fair but can be a little difficult if you don't fully understand the concepts. Make sure you know what you're doing and don't just blindly memorize the steps to get to an answer. Homework/quizzes/labs are a bit time consuming but generally easy.

Zanontian teaches the class from the very very basics. She's very clear and very helpful if you seek her out, but the lectures are kind of boring (especially the first half of the quarter). A lot of things have dropped low grades. Overall a solid GE and a nice professor.

Overall it's an awesome class. Zanontian is clear with her lecture slides and there isn't much work besides studying and doing the labs every other week. Just make sure you're clear with the examples and review lecture notes and you should be fine. Got an A- and didn't have to work too hard, definitely could've put in just a little more effort for an A.

Great class. Be sure to make each homework or lab count. Got 92.76%, and needed a 93% to get an A, so don't let any assignment slip.

Very easy and straightforward class. Pretty much a review of AP Stats. Exams may include one or two tricky questions, but if you keep up with lecture and HW assignments you will be fine. Linda is awesome, super nice and very helpful during office hours.
