I had Olga Parshina as my instructor but she wasn't listed for this semester. She was very nice, perhaps a little hard to understand at some times. She isn't super personable and most of the class is done at home on your own. You definitely have to attend all the lectures because there are some in-class activities worth points and missing 1 or 2 is what made my grade an A- and not an A. Overall chill class and it is required for the major.

Professor Parker teaches the topics in an easy to digest lecture format. I never felt like I was drowning or that I didn't understand the material. Tests are on what was taught in class. You don't have to read the book to do well on the exam but the book is extremely helpful for reinforcing material and for practice problems. You can find a free pdf of the book on Middfiles
This course is designed for people who love statistics and want to be closely tied to psychology and statistics. As someone who was not that, I struggled a lot in this class with the number of projects and assignments compared to the other class. If you have a passion and want to dive deep into the statistical concepts, this class is for you. If you take it as a prerequisite like I did, I feel it is a lot of extra work.
