Reviews of professor Matthew McCoy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I had a really difficult time grasping the material in this class. This professors lectures seemed scrambled and hard to comprehend at times. Theres a LOT of homework. If you had a question, he wouldnt answer it directly, and he took awhile to respond to emails as well. He was very kind, but this class wasnt for me.

His 181 class includes unnecessary and completely useless group projects, confusing and incoherent grading, and uninteresting lectures that give you no reason to even show up. Let's not even start with the StatsLab online homework which is a torturing chore. He IS though nice and understanding, but misses many points that need to be fixed.

Lectures are uninteresting and does not give good feedback or clear grading guidelines.

I think Professor McCoy is new at this. He isn't a bad teacher but it is hard to follow at times. Very fast past moving class so keep up on the material. LOTS of homework but he started to realize that and cut back a lot. He does care about his students and will let you make up quizzes and tests. He dropped two lowest quiz grades for my class.
