Reviews of professor Leon Kaganovskiy

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Took him for statistics. Great professor, very caring and respectful to all students. Probably the nicest personality you'll ever come across, amongst the professors. His reviews are super helpful. Make sure you go over the homework, which isn't mandatory, but makes you understand everything clearer. Not easy course though.

I really appreciated how he tried his best to teach during these trying circumstances. This course was online so in a way that is considered a disadvantage. Through everything he did curve the final that many people did not do well on. He lectures every class and asks many questions. I thought I would fail the course but I passed. I'm very grateful

He only grade midterm,final, and extra credit. His lecture easy to understand but kinda hard on exams. He does provide homework but not grades. He allows students who fail below a 50 to have retake finals. Be aware that he has an accent which made it kinda hard listen to but you will learn something, just listening closing.

If you enjoy torture this class is for you. Tests can take up to 4 hours to finish because of how dense they are! HW is the same (very long and dense) and only counts 15%; you sit for hours in just one hw. The way he makes tests so long and draining should be illegal. tbh I pray for you if u decide to take him!

Two tests involved in this course, tests are not easy, you have to do those homework, but he will curve the class, so don't worry. Make sure you practice homework and understand most concept, then you will be fine.

If you're not already fantastic at the basics of statistics, this class won't be easy. I struggled and his teaching was ineffective. But I can't say that he isn't caring. It's a digital-teaching class in a pandemic so it's so much more difficult than it could be in person. I would say that he really needs to fix his grading policy though

Statistics is hard, but he makes it easy. Make sure you do the homework even it is not mandatory. Bring your hw questions to class, he will explain them thoroughly. Very caring and patient professor. Gives review before midterm and final exams. Both exams were very similar to the reviews and hw. Plus accessible outside of class.

I took Prof. Kaganovskiy for Statistics. It's a very difficult class. However, he makes it the easiest class in your life. He does not stop to explain the material unless you know it for sure. His exam reviews are very clear. He curves and gives you an extra credit project if you need. He works hard to push you towards the grade you desire.
