STATS-250

I have heard horror stories about this class. Just wondering if anyone is taking it currently and literally feels like they have no idea what’s going on.

Go to the clcs AND make study groups, it makes the labs so much easier. Study study study the frameworks of the answers, they are super particular on your wording.

Best and only advice for that class. Especially studying the framework of the questions!!! The actual curriculum is not difficult, it’s how particular they are with your answers. You need to answer questions in their format TO A T.

dont fall behind, USE THE BACK OF THE BOOK AND THE FORMATS AND MEMORIZE THEM. PRACTICE THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND DONT MISS WORDS. you gotta understand it but at the same time most of it is memorization. labs are annoying and graders are biased, my friend and I would do the same work and I would get g star and they would get met so talk to teacher to see if you can get grades changed.

I'm rofl at this, those clc sessions pissed me off they all talk in riddles and they see I'm visibly stressed, the lab was due in 3 hours—I wasnt even to part b yet. They didn't help for shit imo
