Intro to Statistical Science

For a person who never wants to have anything more to do with maths beyond high school, this course was surprisingly pleasant to take. It wasn't dead-easy but also wasn't insufferably challenging. Prof Emily is very chill and friendly, she's good at explaining stuff in simple language and is always helpful during class and office hours. Classtime is basically going over stats knowledge and starting on homework, labs are dedicated to learning R and starting some more homework. Workload isn't heavy and there are only two (OPEN-BOOK, OPEN-INTERNET!!) exams for the semester. Great experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course with Prof. Emily! I was initially a little apprehensive about coding with R, but she was available to help every step of the way which made things a lot easier. There were two exams (open-note but can be a little tricky) and a final project where you analyze a dataset of your choice. All in all, I would recommend this class to anyone looking to develop some basic coding skills and would definitely recommend taking it with EMW if you can.

EMW is awesome. I think more professors should teach like her. There are two exams but they're both very chill. Homework is group-based and straightforward. The labs are probably the most challenging part of the class but she's available every step of the way.

Emily Malcolm-White is a phenomenal teacher who is very enthusiastic about the course material and accommodates a student's needs. The class consisted of lectures and going through notes that she provided and using latter part of the class to work through the assigned homework in groups. The exams contained similar material as the homework so their questions were not shocking or something out of a student's ability to answer. If you attend all classes and keep up in the work you will do fine.

Taking Intro to Stats with Emily Malcolm-White has been an awesome experience. EMW is very effective in her way of lecturing and is very good at correcting any misunderstandings. You have a chance to get the homework and labs done in class so you don't have to think that much about the class outside of class. As long as you did all the homework and notes for the lessons then the exams are pretty easy as well. I'd definitely recommend taking a class with EMW to anyone, she is amazing.
