Gould is the most extra stats professor you can find (he even wrote the book you'll be using) and he also does data projects that most stats professors don't do--actually, no other stats professor does them. If you're gonna take stats, its a pretty easy class and attendance is almost always worth 1% so I wouldn't deem it as mandatory. It is an easy class, so take it with any other professor, but if you don't mind group assignments that other students assess your work on, he's very nice and informative, lectures are pretty boring though.

Gould, albeit somewhat of a pushover, is extremely organized and thorough. His slides are very detailed and he posts them on the class website which is nice. I feel like the reviews on here don't accurately reflect Gould because they're older and maybe he has improved on his lecturing. He posts surveys after each midterm and at the end of the course because he genuinely wants feedback about how he is doing (these are separate from the class evaluations).

Class grades are broken down by 2 midterms (25% each), homework (10%), labs (9%), clicker (1%), and the final (30%). Midterms were a combination of multiple choice and short answer, and the final was strictly multiple choice. The questions are straightforward assuming you understand the concepts he presents, which he outlines thoroughly. He allows a cheat sheet for the midterm and the final. As a word of caution, just because this is the case, you can't bank on writing down everything and going into the exam. You need to understand the concepts and just use the cheat sheet as a reinforcement. He also drops the lowest lab assignment and the lowest homework assignment. He says in the syllabus that "at least 10% will get A's" which might seem intimidating, but the key word here is "at least." The class would have to do extremely poor in order for him to make it so at least 10% get A's. This was my point-breakdown:

Midterm 1: 43/48
Midterm 2: 35/39
Final: 76/78
Final Grade: A

My only complaint about the class was the homework. Gould wrote the textbook from which homework problems are assigned. The problem with the homework is that it is annoyingly time-consuming, despite the low level of difficulty. This is extremely frustrating. In addition, I feel like his homework questions were not quite like the problems he tested on exams, but they did help the concepts gel together.

Overall, Gould is a good professor and the class itself is very manageable.

Professor Gould was so easy to follow and understand. He's really good at explaining stats!! Usually when a professor makes you buy a textbook that they themselves wrote, it's annoying, but his textbook was actually really useful and I see why all of the Stats 10 professors use it. As long as you pay attention in lecture, the class is pretty simple. Just keep up with the homework assignments, make good note sheets for the exams (he lets you have an entire standard sized piece of paper), and go to office hours/discussions if you are confused.
