Reviews of professor Hok Chio (Mark) Lai

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Lai wasn't the best lecturer (a bit dry and read straight off the powerpoint) but the material was easy enough that you could learn just from the book. However, he does count participation a s a major part of your grade, so keep that in mind. The group project and tests are not difficult at all. Easy A if you try

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
One of the most accommodating professors during the pandemic. He cares about students and listens to their needs. Straightforward lectures. Should be a great class as long as you show up to lectures and participate.

Mark is extremely knowledgable in statistics and is very accessible outside class.
