Phillip Fry is super chill and a pretty funny guy, he also will make time any day to help you out in office hours. You have a lot of areas to improve your grade in this class. The only thing to be aware of is that his lectures pack a lot of info so make sure you are good at taking notes quickly and accurately.

Comment:

Phil is a great teacher, but his lectures are long and the whole class period. Everything is a quiz no tests till the final. Most of the quizzes are take home with the exception of a few pop quizzes but he grades super easy. He cares about his students. He also records all his lectures in case you miss class or need to go back.

Fantastic teacher. Goofy teacher who cares about what he's teaching, and about his students. Makes class enjoyable. Most quizzes are take home and he always extends deadlines to give you every opportunity to get the work done. Responds to emails and is understanding about personal situations. I would highly recommend him.

Professor Fry is AMAZING. He's a sweet old man who really cares about what he teaches. He made stats enjoyable, and I'd take another class from him in a heartbeat! All his lectures are recorded so if you miss a day it's not the end of the world. Most of the exams are take home and he's lenient with pretty much all deadlines. Highly recommended

Literally the greatest prof to walk the halls of Boise State. Cares about not only his students knowing the content, but is so understanding of the stressed out college student. If you miss lectures he has lecture captures! One of the best decisions if you want to succeed in Business Statistics!

Phillip tries to make this class enjoyable, accessible, and worthy. Stats can be a hard class to teach, but he takes the time to explain things and how to compute them on Excel and a calc. He gives homework, but it is to help you practice. He is always open to questions and advice and will go the extra mile to help students. Highly Recommend.

Professor Fry has definitely been my favorite lecturer, I learned way more in 208 than I ever did in 207 because he loves what he does and he's hilarious. After the final he followed me out of the room told me when to expect scored to be posted and wished me luck and to have a good break, I'm looking forward to taking him for SCM366!

Phil goes over lots of examples in class, which you can use to model your homework after. Therefore, you will struggle if you don't go to class. However, Phil is a super nice professor and is more than willing to help you in/out of class. If you follow the process you will learn a lot.

Professor Fry is one of the best professors in the business school, somehow he can teach one of the most difficult topics and it makes sense. I would recommend any class he teaches to try to get in his class.

Comment:

Dr. Fry has an incredible range of supply chain knowledge, and combined with his teaching humor is a real gem for this class. He constantly asks questions that he pretends to not know the answer to, but then pulls it out in a second. YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE FORMULAS! Dr. Fry is fair, and will help you when you need help, but be respectful!

Dr. Fry is your grandfather. Wants you to succeed and wants to help you but also wants you to get the hell off his lawn. He's a hilarious old man with a bank of awesome knowledge and one liners. He is available outside of class to help you, and will explain the same thing ten times if necessary, but you should probably just pay attention.

Comment:

Phillip Fry is easily one of the best, if not the best professor at Boise State University. He walks through every step of a problem to make sure the every student has the utmost chance of understanding and achieving, and is a caring and charismatic professor who works hard to keep this normally stale subject entertaining and relatable.

Professor Fry is a funny and caring guy. Loves what he teaches and it shows. I learned more from him in 5 weeks than an entire semester of BUSSTAT 207. No tricks on tests and he is firm with his grading. He knows his stuff!

Pretty clear lectures. I took the summer course, so homework and take-home quizzes were assigned almost every day. You really DON'T need to buy the stupid text book. He requires it because he's one of the authors and get's money from it. We only used it for two tables at the end of the book. Material is difficult so go to class!

Dr. Fry tries his best to make a dry boring subject as tolerable as possible. He helps with any questions that are asked of him. He truly wants his students to succeed. Subject is fairly difficult, so study time is needed to get a good grade.

Phil Fry is a great professor. Very caring, and he doesn't pull any fast ones to trick you on tests. Sometimes just jumps into doing in class examples and you won't know what's going on, but just ask and you'll be fine. Go to class, do the hw, and you will get a good grade. Would take again.
