Comment:

She is the best professor at UDM. I've had her for Intro to Law, Criminal Law, and stats. Stats is hard, regardless of who teaches it. But she is incredibly accessible, wants her students to pass, realistic about her expectations, and a phenomenal professor. I recommend her to everyone. I wish she taught all of the PLS courses.

Comment:

I took this class online in the Summer and its basically like taking advanced STATS because of the length of the course. There were assignments due twice a week. There were 3 exams (very tough) especially since you cannot backtrack and they are timed. However, if you reach out to her with questions she is more than willing to help!!

Comment:

Online STA2250 is very difficult and confusing, just because of the nature of the math. She does a good job of explaining the lessons on the videos she posts. However feedback on discussion boards and homework were rare, so I never really understood what or why I got something wrong.

I was terrified of online stats but she was so helpful. Lots of tools online to help and she was available for extra help. She was very supportive and convinced me that I could do it. It was a lot of work for sure. She is dynamic!

Comment:

I don't know why so many people graded her highly. I had her online stats class and it was hard! I'm now retaking stats with another professor and this time it's in class. Her textbook is over priced and not easy to understand. Yet, she seems not to care about dipping into our pockets for cash.

Mantzopolous is very recommended for stats. She is highly knowledgeable about the topic and even wrote her own book for the class. Just come to class, pay attention, take notes and you should do well. There is lots of homework, but it's neccessary for practice.

If you show up to class and complete all homework assignments, you'll do well. She's nice, and she teaches very well. People always talk about how hard statistics is, but the way she teaches makes it so easy to understand!

Gorgeous person, on the inside and outside. Very kind, warm hearted, intelligent person. Statistics is not a course that most people want to take (me), but she did a great job of making it easy for us to understand. The class' pace may seem fast at times but it's never overwhelming. Very encouraging and fun. Be nice and enthusiastic, she loves it.

A great professor! In most of her classes you can unanimously petition out of the final. I am going to be taking tons of classes with her in the future, and I think that is great!
