Comment:

This professor definitely knows math but he is super monotone and quiet. Extremely hard to hear him when you are just sitting in the middle of the room. Goes thru topics and examples pretty quick and only pauses to ask "is this Ok" after he is already moved on. His tests and quizes are MUCH harder than his examples. He seems really nice tho.

Comment:

He is the worst statistic professor I have ever had. The lectures are full of long paragraphs of words, very little calculation examples given on each topics but followed with wrong formulas or answers & I know lots of people get messed up when trying to study for finals. Definitely not recommended for anyone who are wishing to pass this class.

Comment:

Lectures were super boring and he had to rush through the last 2 chapters and skipped lots of examples which really screwed us for the final exam (that was taken by all math 110 students). The quizzes were harder than they needed to be, midterms were fair, and final was so hard (some questions we didn't learn how to do in class). Nice guy though.

Comment:

Dr Husain is a nice guy, but makes this course challenging. He teaches easy examples to the class & gives easy questions on the practice assignments, then on the quizzes & midterms makes the questions very difficult. It is unfair for students with only having 20 minutes to write the quizzes when the questions are so difficult. The final was so hard

Comment:

The assignments, although not worth marks, are basically required for a pass. The quizzes are harder than the midterms and, for certain questions, the final, which should not be the case. Although the lectures did play their role, it wasn't enough and required thorough work that was not worthy of marks. If you have the chance, DO NOT take him.

Dr. Iqbal explains the materials very well in the class, and expects his students to know them very well too. His quizzes are incredibly tough. Overall, if you review the stuff you learned in the class, I think you'll do fine.

He makes the class example easy and the exams extremely challenging. It's like as if he is testing all the math knowledge, just not the specifics of the class. Very boring and dry....

I taught myself more at home than I did when I attended. He makes a lot of mistakes when teaching AND marking which is frustrating cause you have no idea what's right and wrong. He makes stats 100 a difficult class when the material is extremely easy.

Wanted to fall asleep almost every class. I taught myself more at home than I did when I attended. He makes a lot of mistakes when teaching AND marking which is frustrating cause you have no idea what's right and wrong. He is not clear with his work and makes stats 100 a difficult class when the material is extremely easy. Would not take again.

Comment:

He is a great prof. He does a lot of examples in class and clearly explains them multiple times. You must do your homework if you want to pass. His mid-term was very fair (questions were all like examples), yet the class average was 49%. If you do homework and pay attention in class you will do fine. Gives handouts, don't need text book.

Comment:

This prof is uncleared for tests and quizzes, can't pass the class you don't spend more hours to work on something extra, something that you are not expect to see in the quiz (I even don't know what it is). very limited time to write your quizzes and tests. assignments are uncleared but so much easier compare to the tests, notes are not much used.

Unclear, straight-forward teacher. Class is the same everyday, as he goes over a new unit every class. Attendance is crucial to passing. Tests are very hard, the midterm average in our class was below 50%. He uses simple examples in class but then strikes you with impossible questions on the tests. Final was hard. Textbook wasnt cracked open once.

Like said below, had the simplest examples in class and followed them up with hard assignement, ridiculous midterms, and an impossible final. He lets the curve do the grading.

Comment:

A nice man and everything but for someone who was lookin for an intro to university after comin right out of highschool calculus I should have gotten a way better mark. He did easy examples and then everything on tests would be hard and lots of trig functions. Also very boring and dragged on while at the same time quickly moving through material.

Incredible professor. Seriously, I have never had anyone teach me math this well. Explains concepts clearly, uses lots of examples. If you have the opportunity to take a math class from Dr. Husain, don't pass it up!
