Comment:
He is very hard to understand during lecture, he mumbles and stutters and often starts writing things on the board without explaining what he's doing. The weight of your overall grade is almost solely based on your exam grades, so there's little room to make up for poor scores if you're a bad test taker. A nice man but a bad professor.

Comment:
Math is not my strong suit and I really struggled through this class. He is quite old and mumbles EVERYTHING. He expects you to catch on easily. Isn't personable or approachable.

Comment:
People around school would complain about how boring and hard he is. Boring--yes. But not hard. As long as you take the initiative to go through the book and do the homework questions and devote a bit of time to studying come test time you will do fine. He gives fair tests, you generally know what will be on them and he is a fair grader!

REALLY super nice guy, a little out there. he's so sweet that you have to love him, and if you pay attention in class and do the work, he'll know, and reward you come grade time. i was a theatre major with no interest or talent is stats at ALL, but i pulled off an A!

You must attend every class in order to pass, its too hard to catch up otherwise. Overall, not a bad class being stat and all. This guy is like Ben Stine, he talks in that same monotone so beware and stay awake!
