Reviews of professor Yisu Jia

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
A great choice for STA2014. She uploads her notes, just make sure to review it before the quizzes, and also understand your calculator. She has grade drops too! If your confused, her notes are pretty blunt, and if you don't understand you can email her still.

She gives 1 homework and 1 worksheet most weeks and 4 exams throughout the class. Attendance is not mandatory but if u want to do well, go to class. Overall she's a great teacher and expectations are very clear. She gives a review before each exam that just has different numbers to the real exam.

Wonderful statistics professor! Very caring towards each of her students and helpful during office hours! Homework has heavy weight on your grade; she clearly cares about effort. All quizzes are open-note, open book and she allows a cheat sheet on each test with WHATEVER you want (front and back, so really two sheets)! More cheat sheets on final.

I am not a math person what so ever but Jia is able to make the work understandable and easy to do. Would highly recommend taking her if math is something you struggle with.

Dr. Jia made a difficult subject very easy. The homework and tests are incredibly simple, so as long as you pay attention you should get an A.

Prof. Jia is okay overall. One quiz, one homework a week over 12 chapters, an exam over every 3 chapters, and a final in the end. The homework take super long, but the quizzes and exams are fairly easy if you know the material. Took her remotely and there were no zoom meetings, just emailed lectures to fill in notes. Not a bad class.

What an amazing math professor. 60% exams, 20% homework, and 20% worksheets. The percentage for exams seems intimidating, but her exams are almost identical to the worksheets and review. Absolutely take her if you need to take STA2014. I got a straight 100 on everything without her dropping anything. Just show up and do the work.

Really good professor with incredible patience. She goes at a nice pace, makes sure to stop every now and then for questions, and really breaks down complicated concepts. She often goes back to things she covered in previous chapters to make that mental link against the current material to really fortify understanding. She's a top notch professor.
