Although Dr. Abney is a sweet lady, she cannot teach material well. She is very hard to reach outside of class and her teaching style is kinda all over the place. I have never taken a stat class before, so it is difficult to follow. She is helpful in class and does a lot of group work together and hands on activities.

Ms. Abney is a very nice person and lenient with work. She does not teach good at all. When she lectures its very confusing and she insists on constantly doing group work. Whenever I would ask her question a I would end up being more confused then when I started. Her test are not the worst but it's difficult to study for them. I wouldn't recommend.

Gives very unclear instructions and is not a good teacher. Tests are hard, because she doesn't specifically go over the material. She is nice, but I wouldn't recommend.

Dr.Abney is a caring professor for what its worth, but she isn't always the best at teaching. Going to class is a must as she does random assignments in class and if you miss it you get a zero. Its not clear when certain assignments will be. 90% of her students fail her tests and she usually has to do extra credit so all her students won't fail.

Her lectures were boring and confusing. When you asked a question she never gave a straight answer. Her tests were difficult because she didn't fully cover the material on the test. She waits till the very last minute to grade assignments so you don't know your grade until grades are due. It also takes sending 2 or 3 emails to get her to respond.

Dr. Abney is a super sweet lady, but she does not fully explain. The classes are mainly spent on just one problem and then she moves on. Everything is online and personally I cannot learn math online. I feel confused 90% of the time. Office hours are only on class day and even there she doesn't fully explain. She hardly responds to emails.

She is very nice but her tests were a little bit tricky! She does a lot of group things in class so make sure you sit by people you like in your class because you will do a lot of things with them. Occasional homework, 2 tests, 2 projects. A lot of chances to get your grade up!

Dr. Abney's class was one that I would not say was bad, just very median. Review what she talks about outside of class because you do not do repetition in class and move on from topic quickly. Definitely use the learning center while taking this class and try not to miss class because there are pop-assignments for grades.

I took Pre-Calculus in high school so this class was easier for me than most. Professor Abney is very nice and understanding but I wish she would do more notes rather than working problems. If you ask her a question though, she is great at helping out and does care about her students. She gives study guides for each test too which helps a lot.

mannnnnn, this class was tough. Usually I am a scholar in math and when I say scholar I mean a academic weapon. If this class was tough for me it would definitely be tough for you so I do not recommend.

overall, she's a nice professor, but her teaching style is hard to understand. she's easy to talk to, but it's rare to get good feedback. she only has a few tests, and most of the work is on pearson, but it's not a lot. your grades are only gonna be the tests and pearsons. be prepared to teach yourself the material.

This class was extremely difficult. Professor Abney is very unorganized, and has lack of communication with her students. The tests are extremely difficult, and she is a hard grader on all assignments. Therefore, this made studying for the tests extremely difficult. Getting an A on the two projects are needed in order to not fail this class.

Professor Abney is a wonderful person, however she lacks organization in her classroom. Instructions for assignments are unclear. You are graded off a couple tests and projects, with a few homework assignments and quizzes as grade boosters. The tests are extremely hard and she is a really tough grader. Ask a lot of questions and go to office hours!

I liked Abney she's very kind but confusing. Attendance mandatory. 2 tests, I got A's on both, one with the help of EC she offers. You HAVE to put in work to understand the topics outside class. (PPs & book), it is not as impossible as people make it out. 2 projects, she grades a lil touch but I got A's. Ended with a 96 in class.

If you can avoid taking her I would. She genuinely makes no sense in class at all and anytime I have ever asked a question I end up more confused. More than half the class actually failed our first exam. She makes us do group work everyday which just feels like laziness on her end because the work we do doesn't help us on the exam.

I am usually a math person, but her teaching style was super unorganized and was chaotic to say the least. She had very poor communication when it came to assignments and due dates, so it was very hard to stay on track. Save yourself some stress and take this class with a different prof.

This class was the most insane, awful math class I have ever taken. She has an awful teaching style and was very unhelpful when asking questions. Your entire grade consists of 2 tests and 2 group projects, and online math homework. She doesn't grade super harshly, so it's the only way I passed this class. If you can take a different professor.

Dont take her. Makes no sense when talking and will make you confunsed when you ask questions. SO many people fail her exams bc you don't know what you are supposed to know. So much group work, also she will put random grades in class randomly. She just says the words and expects you to know what she says. Hard to explain but trust me.

She is nice but this class is unnecessarily difficult. She hands out worksheets and plays on her phone and expects you to figure it out. I failed 2/3 tests and even the learning center could not figure out what she wanted. I would try to get anyone else.

Someone please get this woman needs some robitussin and a couple vitamin c packets, she was coughing the whole semester, I hope she's okay. Her lectures were all over the place if you looked down for one minute you would be lost. Also always started the class with a dumb group assignment that took 30 mins and would rush on the lecture as a result.
