Quarter: Fall 2021
Grade: B+

Literally don’t take this class. Zanontian is a really nice person but decided to make the exams so hard while still telling us if we just did well on the hw, labs, and quizzes we would get A’s. Girlie no. I had 100% for labs/hw/quizzes and did well on her practice midterms/ finals heck I even went to office hours and I still got a B+ in the class because her exams were so removed from the content. Like I got straight A’s in the whole LS 7 series and you’re telling me stats is my GPA killer please. She makes this class genuinely seem like another weeder class and for what? And if you really want to weed us pre-meds out at least let us know that’s your plan. Smh y’all just trying to get my degree in peace.

Dr. Zanontian is a kind professor who gives her students ample opportunity to succeed. In my case, my quarter was very busy with other things so I didn't give this class enough time. If you do not have a strong statistics background or your mind doesn't wrap around these concepts as efficiently, you will need to invest some time to understand the concepts. If I had done that more, I would easily have gotten an A instead of an A-.

Homework and lab grades matter, and they are not based on completion but correctness, so make sure that you take the time to get all of the answers correct. That just means that you will have more buffer for the exams when they come around.

Exams are not difficult and are very fair. All material is based on the concepts that Dr. Zanontian taught, and she doesn't include anything else or any trick questions.

I would definitely take this class again, even if statistics isn't my favorite subject, and just pay a little bit more attention! It's very easy, so don't worry about it at all.

Grade: A

This class wasn't quite as easy as I was expecting but still completely fair and doable. The class is broken into 5 grading criteria:
- 25% Final
- 20% Midterm
- 20% Homework (lowest dropped)
- 20% Quizzes (lowest dropped)
- 15% Labs (lowest dropped)

I didn't go to pretty much any of the discussion sections just fyi. The labs weren't that bad, but I consistently got a few points off here and there. The HW was fairly easy and short!! The midterm and final were, in my opinion, very fair. Just do the practice problems she provides, they're very similar but there are a few tricky questions. The quizzes started off hard, and if you don't do well on the first few don't blame yourself. It takes a second to adjust to them but I promise they'll get easier (at least they did for me). Prof herself is super nice and helpful! Def recommend going to office hours if you have questions as she's super willing to help. The class was overall fairly stress free and pretty enjoyable!

TAKE THIS CLASS, such an easy course in my opinion, especially if you took any kind of stats class in hs (AP Stats or even regular is just fine). The concepts/material is clear and while Professor Zanontian is a somewhat slow lecturer and actually treats the material as if you have never seen it before, she is nonetheless helpful and concise. Here's the thing, you don't need to go to lecture to succeed, but she does require you to get a clicker for lecture questions. It's only 2% of your grade and she drops the 3 lowest scores so it's not too much of a big deal. Here's the breakdown: There are 2 midterms 25% each (NO FINAL), 18% HW, 2% clicker, 15% labs, 15% online quizzes. Very doable and gives you plenty of time to turn it in. Overall, I enjoyed this class and she is so friendly.
