Miles Chen is one of the best professors I have had at UCLA. He is an AMAZING teacher. He cares a lot about student learning and is excellent at explaining concepts. His tests are super fair and really easy if you keep up with the work. Not only is he an excellent teacher, but he is also just an incredibly kind and compassionate person. He understands that UCLA is a difficult school and cares a lot about his student's emotional well being. He is so sweet and a wonderful human being. 10/10 would recommend!
Professor Chen was one of the best professors I had this year. He is so caring and passionate about what he teaches. Stats 10 with Professor Chen was relatively easy, and he teaches the students everything they need to know to excel in the class. There are quizzes in discussion section, 2 midterms, 1 final, and 4 labs, but they are all very manageable, and both the professor and my TA were willing to assist anyone with studying. The textbook isn't necessary to do well in the class, but doing the homework problems in the textbook is very useful because it provides students with extra practice problems.
Overall, I would definitely recommend taking Stats10 with Professor Chen!
Thank you Professor Chen for being so kind and considerate this quarter! We all really appreciate it :) Have a nice summer guys~
Chen is one of the best professors on this entire campus! Loved his class and will definitely recommend to all of my friends. He made going to class at 2pm on a Friday worth it! Chen makes the material clear and understandable and his lectures are very interesting. He writes his slides live which is something that I really appreciated as everyone was able to copy them down before he moved on. Do the homework and practice materials that he provides as they are good study tools for the actual midterms and finals. This class is doable no matter what your stats background is. Thank you Miles Chen for such an awesome quarter in your class!
Miles is an amazing professor! Normally I don't review professors, but since he asked all the students for reviews/evals, I decided to write this one. I don't like statistics or probability in general, but Miles made the class very doable and engaging at times. The class material isn't difficult in itself as it only goes into introductory statistics with use of z and t tables. The class is graded on two midterms, one final, and four quizzes. All his exams are fair. The conceptual ones can be a little tricky given multiple choice. Homework is optional. His dedication to the students and class is phenomenal. He podcasts everything, posts both lecture videos and slides with his own notes, is handy with technology, and is super easy to approach. He moves at a steady pace and is as clear and direct as a professor can be. Honestly, he is such an endearing and loveable professor, and he clearly cares for his students' state of mind and well-being. I highly recommend to take him for stats or any other classes with him! Thank you Professor for making my spring quarter a bit brighter and bearable!
Professor Chen is genuinely one of the genuinely nicest professors I've had in my 2 years at UCLA. He's really friendly, really sweet, and shows that he cares about every single student (beyond just our understanding of the class, but even our well-being). He makes the material really straightforward, and the material in itself isn't very difficult at all. His tests and grading are all very fair. We had 2 midterms and 1 final, all multiple choice, and there wasn't anything too tricky about them. If you know your stuff, you'll do well. He also records every lecture and writes everything out on screen. His level of dedication to the class and his genuine passion for statistics is amazing, and if you're taking stats 10 I can't think of a better professor than Professor Chen. Even though I've already learnt most of the material before (I took Econ 41 last year, and Stats 10 is significantly easier), he makes class worth coming to and actually still enjoyable! I would absolutely recommend anybody looking to take a stats class to take it with Professor Chen (:
Miles Chen is one of the best professors I have ever had at UCLA. He is funny, incredibly smart, very good at giving explanations, and just an all-around extremely nice man. He really cares about his students and makes that very clear. His class is also extremely easy. Even if you haven't taken statistics before, if you put the right amount of work into the class and understand the topics (which are all quite basic), you will definitely achieve a high grade.
There are two midterms, one Friday of 4th week and one Friday of 7th week, that overall are very straightforward with may be a couple of somewhat tricky questions thrown in. Review lecture notes and homework assignments and you will be fine! The textbook is helpful if there is anything you don't understand. Each midterm is 15% of your grade. The final is 30% of your grade, and I thought it was easier than both of the midterms.
There are 4 quizzes given in discussion section which each constitute 4% of your grade (so 16% altogether), and there are 4 lab assignments which also each constitute 4% of your grade (16% altogether). He gives everyone 100% for homework which composes 5% of the final grade, and then 5% of the final grade is based off of clicker questions.
Definitely take this class with him if you can. Thank you, Professor Chen, for being an outstanding professor and making my first experience taking statistics extremely enjoyable!
Professor Chen is hands down the BEST professor I have ever had in my entire experience at UCLA. He is extremely helpful, nice, encouraging, and his teaching style is very clear and straightforward. His lectures, and lecture notes are fluid, and easily accessible. He is very caring and goes above and beyond for his students to grasp a clear understanding of the course material and to be successful in his class. Overall, professor Chen has been very inspiring to me and my experience as an undergraduate and I am very thankful that I was able to take stats with him!
Probably one of the best professors I have ever taken at UCLA. He's really nice, funny, engaging in class, not to mention incredibly succinct in the way he teaches the material. He's an expert at linking the subject matter to the big idea, which is incredibly useful because now you don't just know how to crunch the numbers but understand what they mean. He always e-mails ahead of time and is very fair about posting assignments and grading. He posted some study guides and practise midterms/quizzes to help prepare, which shows how much time he puts into this class to make all this information just for the students.
Most of all, he treats his students like human beings. It's unfortunately not always the case at UCLA where in class sometimes you're treated like a number. After the midterm he gave a short speech on how grades aren't everything and basically told us not to give up. How many professors do you know at UCLA will open up to you like that? Professor Chen is awesome! Don't hesitate to take his class.
