Reviews of professor Laurence Schneider

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
If you show up, pay attention, and follow directions you will do well. There is some coding, but this is not a coding class, he gives you all the code you need. Code is not hard to learn, either. Main focus in interpretation. Very accessible. Very clear grading criteria. Gives chocolate before tests.

Great professor, he has an extensive industry background and knows what he's talking about. The class itself is applied so its more about using regression and the main elements than learning the complex math behind it. Homework and tests are easy if you show up to the lectures. Only complaint is that the TA is a stickler on the homework grading.

Great professor. I had him for DAT250 and took his special topics class because I liked him so much. He is super clear on what you need to do to get a good grade, just submit assignments on time and you will be fine. Class material isn't super difficult either and he doesn't expect you to do anything you didn't go over in class. Take him.

Great professor! Really helpful to have someone with a lot of industry experience who can explain each concept in an applied setting. A little particular with how you present your findings/hw but gives clear grading criteria and is very helpful with any questions you might have. Definitely recommend!

His teaching is straightforward and interesting. There was minimal work for the class (3, 4-5 page double-spaced papers). If you're a math/stats/compsci major and are looking for an easy class to balance the load, Schneider is your guy.

The GOAT. This is my favorite course I have taken so far at ASU. Schneiders discussions and sarcasm make class fun and engaging. Show up, do the assignments, and you should get an A fairly easily.

Amazing Professor! There were a lot of extra credit opportunities given throughout this course. There are only 3 papers and 4 quizzes overall. He is very helpful and accommodating with assignments.

Attendance is extra credit and also very important. He covers basically everything you need to complete the assignments during each lecture. Teaches SQL, Alteryx, Tableau, etc. from the very beginning and helps you become very comfortable with them.

I was told this class is easy. For ref, I'm a Comp Math Science major and I have a 3.4; so I have been surviving. BUT in this class, you need to SUCK up to the teacher. Your analysis doesn't matter more than your presentation (I want to explore and not follow a damn rubric while coding). If you derail a little, 5-10 point WILL BE TAKEN OFF.
