Comment:

Good guy, not the best teacher. Chooses to explain material in a difficult way. Group work everyday, so make sure you're doing the homework. First test is online, and the next three are pretty tough. It's a pretty boring class especially since it's so long.

I took him for BUAD 1560. He's a great teacher and really cares about students doing well. His class is hard, but if you put in the work and don't slack, you'll easily get an A. I would take him again.

Class is a lot of work. First 2 tests are hard but the last 2 are a lot easier and none of the tests are cumulative. You also get a note sheet for the tests. Attendance is 50 points. Just do the homework/take home quizzes and bring the book to class.

Comment:

This class is definitely a tough class. However, Collins is a great professor and definitely cares about his students. He seems intimidating but he is really nice if you go into office hours. Make sure to do all of the homework and you will get a good grade in this class.

I took BUAD 1560 with Collins. He is a nice guy but has a lot of forced jokes. if you don't show up to class or participate get ready for a sucky semester. You need to do the homework in this class or you will not pass. The class is not hard but you need to apply yourself for a good grade.

He's got a great sense of humor and excellent teaching skills. If you don't go to class and half a$$ the work, you will fail.

A really nice professor with great teaching skills. I took BUAD1560 (I don't find the right code), a 4-credit course, there may be a lot of homework, but there are helpful and the homework on the textbook will not be collected and graded. As long as you pay enough efforts to his class, and finish quizzes on time, it will not be a tough class.

Professor Collins is the best professor I've had at Marquette. He continuously makes an effort to meet with students and is a super nice guy. He even had time on Sunday nights to meet with him and ask questions. He assigns a lot of work but you don't have to do a lot of it. He's actually really funny and would take his class again

Comment:

Avoid Him! Makes very uncomfortable jokes and does not teach the class! If you don't sit in the front he assumes you don't care about the class. Teaches differently from the book but makes you do homework using the books way. Very confusing, tests are difficult. Very boring class. Most ppl end up dropping his class. Dont waste your time, TAKE ENNIS

Very nice guy who really breaks down the concepts. His tests are difficult but if you do the homework you should do okay. He will meet with you out of class even outside of his office hours.

Breaks down concepts so that you can understand and takes time to make sure he answers all questions. Grade is based on weekly quizzes and two tests which are difficult.

Comment:

If you've ever wanted to learn statistics in the most convoluted way possible, this is your professor. If you've ever wanted to learn long complex formulas and take forever to do things, when you could just plug it into your calculator and be done in 5 seconds, this is the professor for you. He's a great guy, just not the best stats professor.

Bob Collins was the man. I hated the class the first half of the semester, but once I figured out his class structure and teaching style tests became much easier to study for. He lets you drop one test if your final is better than your lowest test. It saved my grade.

Comment:

Extremely difficult class. He brags about only giving 2 As in the prior semester. Expectations are way too high for undergrads not majoring in stats. Students should expect 2-3 hours of homework each night. Alright guy but I would avoid taking his class at all costs.

Comment:

Collins' is only MathStats prof in MBA program. Class is too much for one semester. Take these courses at another school. I did home work 15-20 hours per week and still had to drop twice. I wasted so much money on this MBA program, got A's in all other classes, but couldn't pass these. MU should offer another prof, I just don't connect with him.

Hardest math class I have ever taken. I've never had any issue with math until this course. His tests are hard, and lectures are boring. There are quizzes pretty much every week, sometimes multiple quizzes a week. Avoid taking this class with this professor

He is the toughest teacher I have ever had, I spent at least 3 hours doing the work for this class, everyday review and preview the class, but I still got D, which dont make any sense. His exams are tough that you could never imagine.

WORST teach I have ever had in my life. I studied and did all the homework that took 4 hours plus the online assignments. Honestly avoid him at cost do not make the same mistake I did. My GPA is a 3.8 and I got a D in his class....
