Hubeyb Gurdogan
Most Helpful Review
Summer 2025 - Hubeyb is a peculiar guy, he’s not necessarily a great professor but that’s the same as like half of the profs in the math department. Homework is given but not graded, only meant to help for studying for the tests and quizzes. The course is graded from 4 quizzes, with the lowest one dropped, the midterm, and final. The quizzes are 10% each, with the midterm and final having a 30/40 split, with the one you performed on better being the 40%. The midterm was relatively what was expected, basically the exact material that you’d expect. The final was MUCH more difficult however. The reviews that were written previously are entirely accurate. Brush up on your 170E material, he loves testing Gamma, exponential, and Poisson distributions. We were also for some reason had a question on chi-squared testing for the final. Ordinarily I would think it’s ok but in this case we learnt the entirety of it in the last lecture day, 2 days before the final. Overall if you have Hubeyb you’ll be fine, but I wouldn’t sing the most praises.
