Wu is such an awesome professor. On the first day, he gives a syllabus of only 1/2 page long, brief summary, no class schedule or anything. Then, ppl ask when the midterm will be and he says "you guys decide". Homework is tedious, besides some problems, "summarize this example from the book or class". Midterm and final were very easy, just memorize notes and examples from book. Wu stressed that his "idears are vary intooitive"....his Chinese accent, and his funny chinese jokes and not to be "politically incorrect". Awesome prof, don't take stats w/ anyone else. Yeah, you will be 'gaurateed' a good grade...
He is the best of best. He explains statistics in a very unique way. Everything from Exams are from lecture notes. Try to go to class and take good notes. Make sure you understand everything and memorize the examples from the notes and books. You will get an A easily.
I don't know about Stat 13, but he was hard for 11. He threw up formulas on the board at an alarming speed and used a notation different from the book. For someone studying Stats for the first time, it was a horrible experience. In my opinion, he was not effective at all, and the only way I learned anything was to drill the book day and night. This class was bad, really bad.
If you had no experience with stats before, wu is a great professor. He goes over little details and won't mind explaining things over and over again until everyone understands the topic. The pace of the class is relatively slow. The tests aren't hard either. As long as you go to lectures and do your homework, it's extremely easy to get an A. However, if you've taken AP stats before, wu's class will bore you to death. We only went over maybe 1/5 of AP stats material. Don't think that you don't have to go to lectures tho, wu assigns homework during lectures and do some proofs, which you might have to learn for the midterm.
