I don't usually write reviews, but professor Cha is one of the best statistics Professor, this class convinced me to major in Stats. TAKE THIS CLASS WITH HER.

Stats 10 was pretty much what I expected. Professor Cha is SUPER sweet and clearly cares about the learning of her students and making sure people understand concepts before moving on, which I really appreciated. She is very conscious of monitoring the chat and making sure to answer questions as they come in and engage students through examples and poll questions as much as possible. You do have to go to the lectures which I was not crazy about, but the way you get participation is through poll questions during lecture. There were a few days where she posted interactive lectures on CCLE instead of live, which I thought was a nice break in the quarter. In terms of tests, if you pay attention, go over her slides (especially the example problems) and do her practice tests, you will be totally fine. I cannot emphasize enough how fine you should be - and she gave extra credit after the final that was worth two entire test questions (and there were only 33 total so that was pretty amazing). Before taking this class a bunch of people warned me that it is deceptively easy until the midterm and then ramps up super fast... I think you can get away with half-assing this class before the midterm 100%, but after the midterm just be aware it does get a little more conceptually difficult and it's worth it to pay more attention and engage a little more otherwise you might have to cram a little more for the final. Section is super simple, don't have to go in person, TAs guide you through the labs really well and make R seem super simple. Very easy to get a good section grade as long as you watch the videos at some point and put some effort in. Overall, I had to take this as a requirement and I had a really good experience.

This class was fairly easy for me, as I had taken AP Statistics in high school. As the other reviewers mentioned, Professor Cha is extremely helpful during the online synchronous lectures, and her lecture slides provide clear examples of key statistical concepts. In lecture, she often emphasizes or repeats certain topics that are going to be tested on the quizzes and exams. Her exam questions are very fair and are almost always based off her lecture slides.

The grading breakdown for this course is:
20 % lecture participation (can miss up to two lectures)
20% online quizzes on CCLE (lowest two scores are dropped)
20% lab (lowest lab score is dropped)
20% exam 1 (taken week 4)
20% exam 2 (taken week 10)

In terms of difficulty, the course starts off pretty easy, but gets harder around week 7 when it covers statistical inference. Exam 2 is significantly more difficult than exam 1 since it covers harder topics, but I will say my previous background with statistics definitely helped me through the later parts of the course. The labs are not too difficult to complete since you get a ton of guidance from your section TA (including some R code).

I took this class as a GE and am very satisfied about this professor and course. Overall, definitely would recommend even for those in non-STEM majors. Note that I haven't actually received my final grade yet, so the grade I entered for this review is my predicted grade (based on my assignment scores).

Dr Cha is a great lecturer and the material of this course is very easy. I highly recommend this class for people looking for a science GE that doesn't use too much memorisation or difficult math. All important formulas are given, and Dr Cha gives a lot of preparation material for exams and quizzes.

The lectures are recorded, and asynchronous students simply need to answer 5-10 questions based on the recording of the lecture which is usually covered in the video anyway.

The only difficulty I faced in this class was the labs in R. TA sessions walk through them question by question, so you usually will get full marks for it, but I felt that there were certain things I didn't really understand but just copied from the TA.

Some of my friends got really bad professors for Stats 10 that made the class unnecessarily complicated, so I was a little worried going into it, but Professor Cha makes the class super easy, clear, and straight forward. If you have a choice I would definitely recommend going with Professor Cha.

Take this class. She is a very helpful professor.

Prof. Cha was so accomodating during COVID in the summer! I decided to take this course last minute and the workload was very manageable. I felt like I learned a lot if the course that helped me in a lot of other classes. She made learning stats super easy to comprehend and I would HIGHLY recommend taking the course with her!!

Professor Cha is amazing- her lectures are so clear and she always makes sure everyone understands the material. Discussion sections are dedicated to weekly labs and I spent no extra time outside of the discussion section working on the labs. Would love to take another class with Professor Cha.

Super easy class and I never took AP stats but I am a math major. There are already tons of reviews on Cha for stats 10 but take this class for an easy A!

Professor Cha is so nice and patient! She is very good at lecturing and her slides and explanation of the problems are super clear. I really enjoyed this course. The exams were not hard. If you pay attention to the lectures you will be fine! Participation is required, though lecture recordings will be posted on CCLE for reviewing. Prof Cha is very helpful and always responds to students' questions very fast. She gave me full support to continue my exam when I encountered problems with the Respondus. The TAs are also very nice and almost did everything for our lab every week. I believe if they can leave more problems for us to practice R coding on our own would be even better. Overall it is an amazing course!
