Reviews of professor Nicholas Sterge

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! He knows the material, he is just horrible at teaching it. You end up teaching yourself.

I will say he is a nice guy, but he is a horrible teacher. I am not sure whether or not he just doesn't care or just isn't capable of teaching. Do yourself a huge favor and find a different professor. Surprising Penn State hired him.

Pick a different teacher. He understands the material but isn't good at teaching it. I took stat in high school and loved it, but this was unnecessarily hard. The information wasn't the problem; it was the way he presented it. He is a nice guy and tries to help you though.

Dudes super cool and gives a ton of extra ways to improve your grade

Terrible professor. If you ask a question, he'll just reread the slide that you're confused about. Only good thing is that the exams are relatively easy and he'll give extra credit if you ask for it. Basically he just doesn't care about the class at all.

Genius, clearly loves the material. Plays incredible classic rock. Inspired me to follow his path into the math profession after entering Penn State planning to become a dance major. Inside tip: Take him out for a lunch meeting for wings to really connect .

If you need to take STAT 100, DO NOT take it with him. Whenever someone asks a question, he just rereads the powerpoint. The grading is all over the place. He gives lots of homework and lots of extra credit, but you need to teach yourself the material. The material isn't hard, but he makes it SO much more confusing when teaching it.

Please do not take this class. He cancels class 80% of the time and is just not a good professor. I don't know how he is getting 5 star ratings. Please, do NOT take his. You are better off with someone else. The TA Omar could have been a better professor than him. The average on the midterm was super low. Says a lot about him and his teaching.
