Holt is a fantastic guy, but the structure of this class - taught almost entirely through webwork - needs improvement. There were long lines to take the weekly quizzes, the TAs couldn't explain the problems or answer questions, and although the idea of only one lecture a week and no discussion sounds great, in practice it's not enough face time to convey enough information. This class should have been a breeze, but it was too difficult.

The class was pretty structured. Each week we had a homework assignment and quiz. Everything was done online. Everying was done online, and we had to go to an understaffed Stat Lab to take our quizzes. If you do lot of practice quizzes, it is possible to do ok on the quizzes. This was more of a course in using Excel than a statistics class.

Holt is the best professor to take this class from. He is very efficient about lectures and speaks english (always a plus with a math class).
