If you took statistics in high school this is very similar to that, probably easier. Cha is a really good professor and the material isn't that hard to comprehend, as long as you just go over your notes and study for the midterm and final. Discussions aren't mandatory, but if you want help on the labs every week then take advantage of it. There are also quizzes every week but they're easy as long as you went to lecture or took notes from the textbook. The midterm was very easy and the final was pretty hard but there is a very generous curve. If you want something not that challenging and it's a prereq for your major, I highly recommend this class.

Stats 10 is a great course to take either as ge or stats course. really basic content in stats. But in the later chapters you need to pay more attention to the details. overall it is very easy as long as you follow her in class. Very minimum workload, only weekly quizzes. two midterms not cumulative and she allows one-page written cheat sheet.

Professor Cha is very kind and helpful. She is a good lecturer, but the material can be kind of boring and slow, but that's just how it is. She gives a lot of chances for redemption. She drops the lowest lab grade, which you normally get full credit just for doing, she drops the two losest quiz grades, and she allows you to miss one day's worth of clicker points. Attendance is somewhat required but it only makes about 5% of the grade if I recall, so it's not a make it or break it. My only concern taking her class is that she doesn't curve the final grades unless the average is below 75% (which will not happen) and she does not give extra credit. That being said you have to be precise on the midterms to get a desirable grade. If you make small mistakes that add up, its kind of a "tough luck" situation.

I didn't take stats in high school, and it felt like most students who had found this to be a lot easier than I did.
That said, there is virtually no assigned work. There are labs in discussion which you could probably figure out on your own with the $6 lab book, but honestly it's much more worth it to show up to discussion bc the TA walks you through it step by step.
In terms of content, I spent a few hours with Khan Academy which was helpful to supplement. Lectures can be a little dry, but the slides are posted and easy to follow along, (especially w in class examples) and Cha is helpful during office hours if you show up.
Textbook is not necessary unless you want extra problems.
Your grade is 30% midterm, 30% final, and they're pretty fair problems. Online quizzes (20%) can be challenging.
I would take this class again with Cha. I felt like I learned a lot for not a ton of leg work.

Some questions were weirdly worded on tests. If you've taken AP Stats (which I did before) then you should be fine if you brush up a little bit before exams. Also, knowing how to input everything into the calculator is pretty helpful because most of the time if you enter things wrong into the calculator you won't get an answer on the test because it's multiple choice and assumes you will make your mistakes doing it by hand. Other than that, I didn't pay too much attention in lectures but still did fine.

This class is fairly easy, up until after the first midterm, after which the class gets way harder if you have fallen into bad habits (like me). Cha is an extraordinarily nice person however and really takes great care to always stop and see if there are any questions, and she will explain the material until she feels that everyone knows what is going on. There are biweekly labs due and weekly online quizzes, as well as clicker questions in class to check for participation. She also posts recommended practice problems from the textbook, but they are never checked. A formula sheet is allowed for her exams.

If you have taken AP Stats no worries as this class is easier in my opinion. Tests are very fair and you can write all the things you need on a sheet of paper.

Cha is a great professor!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her class! Her lectures are easy to follow and she constantly repeats the harder materials in case some people didn't get it the first time. Her exams are really easy as they are very similar to her quizzes and the examples that she goes over in class.
The discussion sections are essentially our lab sections. So as long as you follow the TA's instructions, you'll be able to get the lab reports done as the TA tells you what to do.
This class is by far the best and easiest class I have ever taken at UCLA. 10/10 recommend!

Cha was very clear in her slides. She does the problems on the projector/board with the class to walk everyone through. She answers questions in class and also has office hours if you're really confused. She didn't give mandatory homework. She gave weekly quizzes that reflected what we saw on the midterm/final. In addition, she drops your lowest lab and quiz grade, which is extremely helpful.
