Wow.....His lectures were completely disorganized. You were never sure which concepts or formulas you would need from them until you tried the homework and by then you'd forgotten them already, even if you did it right after class. The tests were relatively straightforward and were in large part based upon his review sheets so I ended up getting an A in the class. However I don't feel that I've truly learned very much at all about statistics. The lectures were just too fractured. It doesn't help that half of the stuff Dr. Li lectures about simply isn't in the book, and what is in there is horribly written. You're pretty much on your own. Pray you get a good TA.

Winter 2018 - His lectures are disorganized and it seems that he doesn't go over the examples presented in class before coming to the lecture. I hope he will prepare what examples he is going to present in his class. Compared to the couple midterms, the final was extremely hard (the average was 69 and only 2 out of 70 got higher than 90~) but he didn't curve that much. I ended up getting a B+ and people barely get an A in this class. BE AWARE that STATS 100B class itself is fairly difficult regardless of the professor who teaches. It is a theoretical basis for subsequent upper-div classes thus important to know the ideas and concepts from this class.
