Chen is awesome. I absolutely abhor math and had to take this as a prep class, but he made it very interesting and easy. His slides are very clear and logical, and he always stops to make sure everyone understands the material before he moves on. He's also a very good lecturer who can keep me engaged, which is a challenge. Chen genuinely loves stats, and it shows in the lectures. The weekly quizzes are pretty easy, and while the labs are kind of a pain, he gives you plenty of time to finish them. I didn't even buy the textbook for this class, all I need to do is look back at his slides to study for the quizzes. What he teaches is exactly what shows up on the midterms and quizzes. The lectures are even videocasted so if you can't make it to one you can just watch it the next day and its like you never missed it. I had to email him a couple of times and he got back to me very quickly with a helpful response. I highly recommend taking his class, regardless of if you need to or not.

BEST PROFESSOR EVER!! Double majoring in Statistics only because of him, he made me love the subject. He is such a caring and understand professor too. Definitely hope to take future stats classes with him. He explains everything so well, some of the concepts would have been really confusing if it weren't for the way he explained them. He makes stats so simple!

Chen is one of the best professors I've had at UCLA! He's the cutest little guy and his lectures are fun and engaging. He really cares about students and is super helpful and understanding, he wants everyone to love stats as much as he does. I am not a math person but he made me want to take another stats class.

Fantastic professor. Truly cares about is students, and tries to make the class easy for them. He tries his best to help you understand the essentials of basic statistics in a friendly, non-stressful way. With the help of AP Statistics in high school, this course was a breeze as I was able to attain an A+ with a little less than an hour of preparation throughout the quarter for his assessments in the form of quizzes, two midterms, and the final. Labs are tedious, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Definitely recommend. Hope to see Miles Chen at UCLA for as long as he desires to be here.

Professor Chen is the best professor I have had at UCLA so far! I have never taken a stats class before and I thought I was going to hate it, but he makes the class understandable and enjoyable. He truly cares how the students are doing and makes sure every subject is clear. Tests and quizzes are exactly like what he has you practice in class and on homework. Definitely take his class if you can!

Professor Chen is by far the best professor at UCLA. Strongly recommend him! He's super funny, and made his class enjoyable. Unlike the majority of professors at UCLA, Chen is actually human. He not only cares about his students' success in the class but constantly reminded us that are well-being was more important than a bad grade.

I didn't think I would like statistics that much, but Miles changed my mind. He's a wonderful lecturer who goes through concepts thoroughly and in an engaging manner. His tests are fair and easy to do well in if you do your homework and attend lecture. He's also very caring and understands that students are stressed from other classes. If you need help with the class or have any concerns, he's easily accessible. Simply put, Miles is an ideal professor.

I would definitely take him again.
