If you go to class, this won't be a difficult class. He is an amazing professor that is willing to help you and make sure that you understand the material. He gets that this is a general class and you may not be that good at math, and he's extremely willing to work with you in order to get you the grade that you want. Take his class!

I took stats 110 with another professor last semester and dropped because it was daunting, but Malone makes it doable. He can be funny, he's very fair, and does his best to make material understandable. There are quizzes each week (same with most stats classes so don't judge based on that), standard tests. The catch: he takes an eternity to grade.

Malone is fantastic! He' super easy to understand, lectures are clear and easy to follow, and he gives out TONS of extra credit. He really cares about how the students are doing in the class. He's not very good about giving grades back, but he'll give extra credit if it's taking way too long. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!!!

nice guy, not the best teacher for this course. He moves way to fast in class, never waits for people to have questions or catch up. Super unorganized, comes late to class EVERY day, then holds us 5 minutes after causing me to be late to my other class. Doesnt post grades AT ALL through out the semester, so you have no idea what your grade is

Absolutely the worst professor I have ever had, at least for the Data Science course he teachers, not sure about stats. If you have any other option, take the other one, you will not learn a thing, he "teaches" by doing and is lazy, therefore the students have to suffer because everything is assigned late.

A handful of quizzes throughout the semester and only 2-3 tests including the final.

Dr. Malone is very passionate about statistics, is a straight shooter, and can be funny at times but he takes forever to grade anything and doesn't use D2L. We took 3 quizzes before exam 1 and didn't get a single quiz back before the exam. There is no way to track your grade or how well you understand the content.

Malone is a very good Stats teacher. If you have a question he is more than willing to elaborate on anything. He does not use D2L, and never hands anything back for like 5 months, so you have no clue what your grade is. He also never responds to his email so if you have questions it is best to approach him in person.

Malone is one of my favorite professors at WSU. He gives a lot of take home tests, and you can use whatever resources you would like to complete it (including him and the tutor center). He uses real data, which let me know exactly how what I'm learning is going to apply outside of school. He was amazing. Take him and you won't be disappointed.

Malone is good if you want an easy A. For example, he'll give partial credit on multiple choice ?s and wants everyone to pass. He makes learning stats very easy and keeps things simplified. Downside is that he doesn't get things graded on time and doesn't use D2L, so you never truly know how you're doing on things.
