Professor Tsiang is one of the nicest and most understanding professors I've had at UCLA. He genuinely cares about his students' wellbeing and whether or not they understand the material. There are suggested homework assignments, but they are not required and automatically everyone gets 100% in homework (which is worth 5% of the grade). There are 10 online quizzes, 5 labs (1 due every two weeks) and a final. For each of the midterms you get one 8.5"x11" front and back page of notes and for the final you get three 8.5"x11" front and back pages of notes. This was my first statistics course I've ever taken and I felt like I was able to learn a lot and at the same time didn't feel like I was stressing over my grade, which I believe was his intention. I recommend this class and professor to anyone who loves or hates math or just needs to fulfill a requirement!

Professor Tsiang in amazing professor who really tries his best to make sure that his students are learning. His exams are pretty straightforward, and he has no curveballs or tricks on them. He also really cares about our physical well-being and mental health, which is much appreciated. He is quite approachable, and will help you in any way that he can. I highly recommend him for Stats 10, as he is probably the best professor you could have for an intro statistics class. You will not regret taking this class with him.

I'm going to start this by stating that I got straight c+'s in physics. I'm great in bio, I get by in chem, but math (and yes I know physics is both a science and a mathematics, but to me it's MATH) is difficult for me. I came into this class wholly expecting to cry and struggle over it just like I did in physics. But I didn't. I got an A. And I truly believe that was due to Tsiang. He is so sweet, so understanding, and really wants his students to do well. He was willing to work with me on anything I struggled with and I really felt welcomed to ask him questions. He also makes awesome Parks & Rec references. If you do the homework and seek help in this class, you will do great - if you take it with Tsiang. 10/10 recommend.

If you have the chance to take him for Stats, do it! He's a great teacher and his tests were straight forward and all multiple choice. He gave a lot of extra credit. One lab was completely extra credit. The final had 42 questions but was only graded out of 40. One of the online quizzes had 11 questions but was graded out of 9. Getting an A in this class is extremely doable. The labs were a bit annoying, but the TA's basically give you all the code you need for it. Not a hard class, great to take with other challenging courses.

This class was amazing!!!! I definitely recommend having Tsiang for Stats 10. He really cares about his students and will help you if you go to office hours. His tests are fair and the labs are easy but sometimes take a lot of time. Tsiang himself is such a relatable and passionate guy who really tries his best to make stats an interesting subject.

Professor Tsiang, or Mike, is AMAZING! Although I only took STATS 10 as a GE, it was one of the best classes that I've taken at UCLA. Not only is he super clear with his explanations, he's also very funny. He's very eager to help you out and excited to teach. 10/10 would recommend!!!

Material is completely new to me. The professor made it fun to learn R. Take Junhyung Park as your TA if you can.

Best statistics professor in UCLA. Wish he taught more upper divs. Even if you're not intending to major in stats, take this class as a GE. He allows cheat sheet for midterm and final.

I LOVED Tsiang! If you have any sort of previous knowledge of a programming language, this class will be very easy for you. Even if you don't, the professor is great and I enjoyed lectures. Very easy grader as well.

Not only he’s a good lecturer and teacher, he’s just an amazing person. He’s very nice, listens to your concerns and cares about students. The practice tests he gives before the exams are very helpful and the handouts are very clear so you’ll know what exactly is expected from you to know. Take him!!
