TAKE HER IF YOU CAN! Took during Fall 2020, she is incredible. Answers emails quick, TAs are helpful, and she genuinely wants you to get an A.

Incredible. Such a supportive teacher and a flexible class in a time when many classes really aren't the best due to remote learning. Super flexible and Du really does care about the well-being of her students. The workload is manageable and it is clear that the focus is understanding the concepts rather than memorizing formulas or vocabulary. Highly recommend taking psych 100A with Du.

Quarter: Fall 2020
Grade: A+

She is an angel. Got an A+ with minimal effort. Lectures are clear and she goes above and beyond to make sure students understand the material. The TA's, Egamaria and Tristan, were also great.
The second, shorter lecture of the week is kinda like a lab, it always ends early.
We usually had a quiz each week with endless attempts so you can get 100%. There was also an assignment every week (go over answers with peers from groupme) that you can always get 100% on if you check answers.
The last thing was a group final project that follows the assignment formats.

Take her class!!! And be nice to her!!!

Professor Du captured the majority of the class by her first lecture with her sweet character. She gives fun and sometimes silly examples to help us remember the concepts she teaches. Although the material was perhaps on the lighter side compared to other classes, her course is worth taking purely for the good vibes. She tested us frequently with quizzes and assignments, and the final was a group project with a group of our choosing. Take this class!

Professor Du is a super sweet professor and you can definitely tell she wants her students to do well. I don't consider myself a math person, but I didn't find this class difficult. Her lectures can be a little hard to focus on sometimes (but that's expected with a math class), but she makes the content really accessible. Your grade mainly just consists of a few quizzes, assignments, and one final "big" assignment. However, all of them were super manageable and none of them took a ton of time. You can also take the quizzes multiple times if you get a bad score on the first round. I can't speak to how this class is in person (I took it online due to COVID), but overall, I highly recommend Han!

Professor Han is very sweet and genuinely only cares that you learn the materials from the class. She changes the dynamic most times in order to allow for students to learn, whether them worrying about their grades. Although it's a very big class including the labs, she is always open to students asking questions in order to understand the concepts. BUT I would 1000% recommend taking a stats class prior to this class. I took Stats 10 in the fall, and this class was comfortable to learn in; it didn't feel overwhelmingly hard nor did I ever fall so behind that I gave up. Please please please take an intro stats class because you may get lost if you don't pick up on material quickly. You cannot move on in this class unless you grasp each concept on its own, because they all will be used throughout the quarter. But the professor is a sweetheart.

She i such a nie lady. There is no A- in her class so if you get a 91 you get an A. I honestly do not like stasts very much so I found the class kinda boring but she teaches it in an easy and comprehensive way. The exams are really easy and you are allowed a double sized cheat sheet. All lab was was her teaching us how to do the homework.

Professor Du's class was a great welcome into the psychology department. It also reminded me how much I love stats! Here's the basic structure of the class. There is a midterm and a final alongside weekly quizzes (but you get unlimited attempts) and assignments. The assignments, although you don't get unlimited attempts, aren't super challenging. There are also in-class quizzes but those are only worth 1 point. Professor Du will change the weights of each of these components to give you the best grade possible. She is always energetic and cheerful, and she doesn't make you feel bad for asking any kind of question. It was kind of weird that the class didn't have discussion and we had lab with all 300 students, but the TAs were always walking around in class if you needed them.
The downside of the class is that it was basically just a slightly less advanced review of Stats 10. I also feel like it wasn't entirely connected to psychology as the name implies because we used Jamovi, a software that I don't think is used professionally. Also, we didn't really touch on the psychology connection all that much—mostly just regular stats material.
Professor Du is unbelievably kind and accommodating, and really wants you to succeed. We had a final on our last day to move out, but she worked so hard to get the psychology department to agree to let us have a final project.
Overall, don't feel too nervous about taking this class

Professor Han was so, so sweet. I would genuinely recommend taking this class. I took AP Statistics in High School and received a 5 on the exam, and most if not all of the material is just recycled from that class. I am sure that contributed to the material being very easy for me, but she genuinely explains the material very clearly even though there is a lot. The lectures would sometimes not be very engaging and felt repetitive, but at the same time it was nice because if you didn't understand the material fully the first time you'd have multiple lectures afterwards that would explain it again until it got into your head. The lab was not mandatory either and her videos were on BruinCast. I didn't go to class after Week 3 and only watched the lectures last minute and passed the midterm and final with flying colors. She is very good at teaching and clearing up anything you have questions about!

TLDR; TAKE HER!!

Take her class!!! She is so sweet and cute and genuinely wants her students to succeed. Her class was extremely manageable with usually 1-2 quizzes and one Jamovi assignment due each week. Her exams are not there to trick you, they're very straightforward. I never felt stressed over this class and I really liked that she made sure everyone felt confident on a topic before moving on to the next. She addressed and encouraged all questions. I would definitely take her again if I could.
