Very easy and straightforward class. Pretty much a review of AP Stats. Exams may include one or two tricky questions, but if you keep up with lecture and HW assignments you will be fine. Linda is awesome, super nice and very helpful during office hours.

Great class. Be sure to make each homework or lab count. Got 92.76%, and needed a 93% to get an A, so don't let any assignment slip.

Overall it's an awesome class. Zanontian is clear with her lecture slides and there isn't much work besides studying and doing the labs every other week. Just make sure you're clear with the examples and review lecture notes and you should be fine. Got an A- and didn't have to work too hard, definitely could've put in just a little more effort for an A.

This class entailed a lot of busy work. The assignments were massive wastes of time, as were the labs, and she takes attendance via iClicker. The exams were all multiple choice and extremely stupid (many small things that are easy to lose points on). Lectures are painfully slow and boring, since she explains basic concepts like mean and median like you've never heard of them in your life. If you're a STEM major, just take the hit and don't show up to class--you have better things to do than sit there. To make things worse, she makes you bring a cheat sheet instead of providing you a formula sheet, so you have to waste time copying formulas onto a cheat sheet before the two exams. Highly discourage taking this class with this professor--find another who doesn't waste your time with this nonsense.

I didn't think this class was very difficult. Professor Zanontian is very kind + understanding. Exams are fair but can be a little difficult if you don't fully understand the concepts. Make sure you know what you're doing and don't just blindly memorize the steps to get to an answer. Homework/quizzes/labs are a bit time consuming but generally easy.

Zanontian teaches the class from the very very basics. She's very clear and very helpful if you seek her out, but the lectures are kind of boring (especially the first half of the quarter). A lot of things have dropped low grades. Overall a solid GE and a nice professor.

TAKE THIS CLASS, such an easy course in my opinion, especially if you took any kind of stats class in hs (AP Stats or even regular is just fine). The concepts/material is clear and while Professor Zanontian is a somewhat slow lecturer and actually treats the material as if you have never seen it before, she is nonetheless helpful and concise. Here's the thing, you don't need to go to lecture to succeed, but she does require you to get a clicker for lecture questions. It's only 2% of your grade and she drops the 3 lowest scores so it's not too much of a big deal. Here's the breakdown: There are 2 midterms 25% each (NO FINAL), 18% HW, 2% clicker, 15% labs, 15% online quizzes. Very doable and gives you plenty of time to turn it in. Overall, I enjoyed this class and she is so friendly.

Super easy class. All tests are multiple choice.
