I did not enjoy her course. The information is useful for a beginner in R, but the way she grades is very confusing. She does not offer clear rubrics for her assignments, and when you don't reach her internal expectation, she would just grade you really poorly on it. You also don't receive timely feedback for your homework.

The material for this class is difficult because even if you understand a topic, there will always be new problems that are completely different from what you have seen before. However, the professor is amazing and really good at teaching the content. He is passionate about probability and really cares about his students. I would take any class with him as the professor. The exams are tough but fair and overall if you pay attention you can get a good grade.

Peterson is a gem but with high expectations about what students already know/inherently understand. Easy course if you are good conceptually but there was some difficulty in preparing for exams and thinking about the material. Grading: 25% PS, 25% exam 1, 25% exam 2, 25% final. So not much wiggle room to mess up on exams, which stressed me out, but all turned out well in the end and Peterson is GREAT about office hours.
