Davis is an excellent professor who explains the material very clearly and seems to truly care about her students. She has the ability to make a fairly dry subject interesting and relevant to your life. Discussion was okay, but lecture was great. The only thing I would complain about is that because the tests only have a few problems, missing one small part can affect your grade a lot. Still, I highly recommend Davis for Stats 10.

Davis was an excellent caring professor who understood peoples' circumstances. I think she teaches statistics in a very easy to learn step by step way. The class was a little tedious though with the weekly online quizes and the weekly homeworks, but they REALLY help for the exams. The labs were really annoying and I hated them, but get perfects on them! For the exams you get to make a little cheat sheet which helps a lot too. You should always do the homework by yourself first to get the extra practice. The 2 mid-exams were pretty okay. The final was pretty fair too. Overall, Davis is a wonderful teacher that will make herself available for questions. My TA didn't really help much... so I didn't go to sections (except for the tuesday labs). But she helped explain so well in class. Take Davis if you are going to take stats 10. I won't say she is the easiest (because there is a lot of work involved and her questions are legit questions.) But she is the best teacher of stats for sure.

Let's face it, Stats sucks. Since most of us at UCLA are required to take Stats do yourself a favor and take Davis, you'll be glad you did. Prof. Davis makes this subject palatable, she understands that not everyone in her class is a South Campus major. On exams she allows you to use a cheat sheet, but that being said you still have to know your stuff and the tests are a little tricky. There is a lot of busy work and if your not prepared to make Stats your life for 10 weeks don't take the class, or wait until your schedule is lighter. I myself am not a "math person" but received a B+ in the class.

I loved Professor Davis. She is so passionate about statistics and teaches it in the EASIEST, FAIREST way ever. The stats 10 class in general has a lot of busy work but you need it for most majors anyway, so if you have to take it, take it with Davis. She goes over problems that resemble the ones on the tests in class, and she reviews the material and breaks it down so it is easy to understand for the midterm and final. The online quizzes are hard, but most people think they are and they help you prepare for the tests. If you study and keep up with your work, you will succeed. Also, Tess is the BEST TA, she is so good at explaining math and she is a totally fair grader! If you can, get her! For the tests, Davis lets you have a cheat sheet for formulas. I have NEVER been good at math ever, and I got an A- on the midterm and an A+ on the final!!!! TAKE HER

professor Davis was really nice and stats 10 was pretty easy. lecture is the most important thing because that's where she does all her practice problems (which are just like the ones on the midterm and final) and explains all the concepts, which she makes very easy to understand. there are also handouts only available at lecture and nothing is posted online, so basically go to lecture. the book is only useful if you need additional clarification. homeworks and labs were easy. quizzes were kind of hard but i had Matilda for my TA and she was super helpful. if you go to lecture, do the homeworks and practice problems and understand the basic concepts you should do fine. final grade: A

Prof. Davis really made Stats an easy subject to comprehend. I'm not a math/sciency person but I was able to handle the class. Quizzes are tricky. Labs are easy. Midterm was definitely way easy, but the final was tricky as hell. So make sure you study for that last one. Since there is no curve in the class, don't screw around. If you put in the effort, you'll easily get a B+ or better. She's a really nice lady. Go to her office hours!!

Professor Davis is by far the best/easiest teach to take for Stats 10. Her grading criteria is a little weird....Its 20% labs/quizzes/hw, 30% midterm, and 50% final. I had a 99.4% going into the final, and the final ended up being sort of tricky and hard, and I got a 91% on it. So, I bearly ended up with an A-. There is no curve, and you must get 94% to get an A. However there were pleanty of A's....so it's not impossible. She is a GREAT teacher, the sweetest lady ever. You won't regret taking her class, so if you have to take Stats 10 take it with Davis for sure...

So statistics isn't fun or interesting, but Prof. Davis was very clear in her instruction. The tests were easy, she even let you use notes on them!!!

Professor Davis is a really good professor who truly cares about her student's learning. Like everyone said, she's like a high school teacher who kind of spoon feeds us. First midterm, I didn't study and got a 90%. For the final, I studied for a day and got 100%. However, dont let this fool you, many people failed her tests and got bad grades in the class. I think alot of it is really luck because if you get one question wrong, that lowers your chance of getting an A by about 20%. Final was only worth 43 points and it's worth 50% of your grade. Thus, if you dont study for the final... you'll most definately not get an A. It's not a "breeze" but it's definately doable. I ended up with an A in the class but it's after so much stress. I think I could've easily ended with an A- or a B+. Oh yeah, make sure you get your probabilities down for the final.

it is structured like a high school class, hw and a quiz every week and a midterm and a final. she is willing to help anyone and will not move on until evryone gets it. keep up on quizzes and print them b/c they are very representative of the tests which are not tricky at all. take her!
