Tough Professor but don't have a choice.

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Had him over the summer, lectures tended to be hard to follow and somewhat bland. Did poorly on tests, but he offered 15 points of extra credit. After it was done, he only graded 4 problems and then only gave 5 points of extra credit. Still the only C I have ever gotten.

Does a good job in explaining the concepts during lectures, although I learned most sections by watching YouTube and constantly working out problems. Is relatively hard to reach outside of class by email. Study past exams from other professors and you will do just fine.

Dr. Biswas has a more old style of teaching where He uses paper instead of a powerpoint to do his lectures. This helps with student engagement as he works through and explains problems very well. He teaches the class very well and seems to care about student concerns and will work with students. :)

He is a good teacher the class that he teaches just has so much content.

I took Biswas for STAT 302 and was warned that this course was difficult, what I didn't expect was how this professor was. He had given us lots of straightforward notes and homework and claimed that exams were "just like the homework" but they were questions we had never seen before! It was so bad that everyone in the class failed the first exam.
