He English isn't all that great, but he really wants his students to excell and do well. He offers bonus quizzes which he will add to your final grade. All tests are open book & notes.

His English is definitly not the best and his lectures aren't always organized or clear, but he truely does want his students to do well. 3 tests & an optional, cumulative final. Gives optional quizzes for bonus points. He would go above & beyond to help if you needed it. Attendance not mandatory. The text book and his reviews are very helpful.

very helpfull and caring with his students. He allow you to have an A if you study and do your part.

Mr.Dodonova loves stats! He thinks we are all on his level so don't be afraid to speak up if you are confused. He will do all he can to help you. Go to class and keep up or you will get lost fairly quick. Attend all review classes as exams are based on review questions. Final is optional.

TAKE HIM! I failed this class before but now I have an A. He is very good at teaching. He has excell classes after class so he can help you. No attendance policy. You can use notes on test which is why I passed. Really easy.

Great teacher! Open notes and book on tests. He does a review before each test with problems that are just like the ones on the test. Makes a very hard class very easy!

Business stats is a very hard class and he did a GREAT job teaching it! Got a high A. His reviews are very similar to his tests and he does a great job explaining the material. Take HIM!!

Good teacher overall. I had to study the material a lot outside of class to understand it, but the open note/laptop/anything tests made this very preferable. Homework isn't too bad, just time consuming. Do well on the first two tests and you can skip the optional final.

I started taking this class with 2 other Professors and dropped it both times. This guy is great! Go to class and do the home work. He explains everything step by step and gives a full review before each test with exact examples. Tests are open notes and book except for 1 multiple choice section.

Wonderful professor for a hard class. I am not a math person, but he allowed notes and laptops to be used on tests. If you have a Laptop with Excel this class is easy!

Easy A if you go to class. Loved the grading system. The final is optional and can only help you.

Open Notes, Laptops, Books bascally you get the Works..But BE CARFEULL. If you don't study, you will have basically done a K.O. to you Grade. MC are normally 10 questions, Quite tricky if you don't read them right. Problems require thought so understanding of the diff theories is a must.I reccomend this profe but take with CAUTION!

GREAT PROF! HE REALLY WANTS EVERYONE TO DO WELL. QUIZ EACH CLASS THAT REALLY HELPS YOUR GRADE. MATERIAL LOOKS EASY BUT BE SURE YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS APPLICATION FOR THE MC QUESTIONS. 3 TESTS WITH 3 SECTIONS EACH - MC CLOSED BOOK, PROBLEMS ARE OPEN BOOK AND NOTES, AND TAKE HOME PROBLEMS. OPTIONAL FINAL.

Prof Dodonova speaks English perfectly. He has a slight eastern European accent. If you've never been out of GA this might throw you, but he's a good lecturer and a great teacher. I enjoyed his class and learned a lot about statistics and using Excel. You really need a laptop to do well in this class but it's not required.

He is a good professor. The material is complex, so do the optional homework before class and you will understand the material better. He is always willing to help you out. Go to class and be involved. Print his class notes before the lecture to help with understanding.

He wants you to do well in his class. If you do the homework you can get an A with only high B's on your tests. The material is hard but the tests are easy compared to the homework /class. *Do the reviews before the test!* The #1 grade in our class was an A, then B's. No D's and the only F's were people who missed not one but 2 or more tests.

This is a hard class but if you attend class do homwork and quizzes you should do well. I hardly used the text book; he tests what is on his notes.

This class is brutal but the professor is so sweet! Can most of the time understand him :) Consists of three tests that are open book and a mix of multiple choice, long answer and excel spreadsheets. Weekly small 20 min quizzes. Prof really tries to help students and work with them on obtaining the best grade possible.

This Professor is very generous with his time when it comes to explaining the material. He speaks softly and tends to go a little slow sometimes. But you hate to rush him when he's just trying to make sure you understand the work. There is not much room to make up your grade if you're not doing well, so try hard! 3 tests, HW, and optional Final.

Excellent class. Excellent teacher. Easy to understand. Kind and humorous. Come to lectures, do homework (attempts graded, not actual results) and you'll do well. Amazed at the number of people that did not bother to attend classes and then act surprised when they didn't do well.

This class is easy if you show up. He goes over everything in minute detail... no one ever shows up to class, which explains why so many people don't do well here, but the material itself isn't bad and he teaches it well. He's always in his office to provide assistance, and he provides great study materials.

Great professor, you have to work in this class, but he is very fair in grading and allows bonus points to grade. He really wants to see you succeed and quickly responds to emails.

He does not take attendance but you still need to show to class to pass unless you already know your stuff. He has an accent but easy to understand. Very nice guy and is willing to help. He says test 2 is the easiest but I find test 3 harder.Concept portion of test is closed book and problems are open. I would recommend him. He is very fair.

VERY fair professor. Not an easy class, but he makes it as bearable as possible. Optional final. Plenty of opportunity to make an A. Very nice and easy to get in touch with. Definitely recommend.

Good class. 3 tests, a bonus test for extra credit, and an optional cumulative final that will drop the lowest test grade. The tests weren't bad if you studied, and the problems portion (about half of the test) was open everything. He posts all his notes online. Go to class or you'll be lost. You probably won't need the $200 text (good thing, too!)

Good Prof. He teaches at an extremely slow pace. Extra credit offered, don't be intimidated by the homework as he gives you credit very leniently. Tests are much easier than they could be. He's also a nice guy. All the low ratings are from people who are frustrated that they aren't intelligent enough to score high on a watered down math course.

Regardless of the prof, the class will be hard. Dodonova is more forgiving than most in the fact he gives HW credit as long as you try, the excel based portion of the test is take home, and the final is optional. He can be hard to understand, but he is helpful if you talk to him 1 on 1. He also has very detailed notes. He is the best for this class

Best teacher yet. 3 tests n optional final. Tests look just like his online quizzes. Two online take home exams that look just like his 2 online practice exams. Bonus pints. He gives a lot of resources n his tests r really easy 10 multiple choice ques. N 4 show your work probs. w open EVERYTHING. If u fail is cuz u r lazy n don't use what's given.

There are 3 tests and a good amount of quizzes that will help your grade a lot. I never attended to class because of work, I just study his PowerPoints and the practice quizzes and ended up with an A in the class. Tests are super easy can't even take you 15 mins to complete them.

Gives us notes to study and practice material. However, the subject is difficult and hard to grasp despite this. He is quiet, so you MUST sit closer to him to hear him - super good at explaining stuff. Easy quizzes. Tests are very short, half open note. Concepts + problems are 10 questions ea, which can mess up your grade easily.

We had a couple of tests and the final was optional . Be smart and take advantage of the excel project he will give you. It counts a lot of points in your final grade. He would help you if you ask for help. This class is hard and you will have to study to earn a decent grade. I would take him again.

This is a tough course to take and if you know Excel a decent amount, you will do fine in Dodonova's class. That being said, I would suggest attending class because this is a hard class to self-teach. Exams are a large portion of the grade, Final (optional) replaces lowest exam and lowest 2 HWs were dropped. We also got out early half of the time

Bus. Stat is a difficult course. Its essential to go to class& STUDY. He very organized &gives the notes on each chapter with step by step details. NO BOOK. 3 tests, each with a concept part(closed note), math part(open note), &take home excel part, totaling 90pts of final grade. 11 quizzes, lowest 2 dropped, makes up the other 10pts. Optionalfinal

He is very enthusiastic about the course material and provides incredibly detailed notes, all of which are provided online, however, I find it easier to learn when I see the problems worked out. People complain this class is hard, but those are the people who do not go to class and watch the methods used. Test aren't bad either.

Don't bother with textbook. very nice, really loves what he does. Now, BUS. STATS IS A HARD COURSE. the material itself is challenging so you gotta study and pay attention. He is very organized with his notes, practice problems, lectures etc. and sticks to syllabus. A little bit of an accent but nothing that will get in the way, best choice

All of his test are based on what he goes over in class. As long as you study his practice concepts/problems and his quizzes you will make at least a B on all of his test. He also gives extra credit and has an optional final that can replace your lowest test grade. I would suggest him over any other Econ 2300 professor.

If you take good notes and show up to class, you can make an easy "A". He gives an optional final that replaces your lowest exam grade. He's a solid choice if you actually want to learn. He has a heavy accent but if you don't understand something, he would take the time to go over it with you.

He is a good choice for this class. This is a tough course but he makes it as easy as possible as long as you show up to class and study before the test. Test is in three parts, with two of that parts being open notes. This class is not an easy A but if you work hard getting an A is definitely possible. No book and attendance is not mandatory.

Econ2300 is an extremely hard course but this professor does everything possible to make it as easy as possible for you. Dodonova is extremely good at his job and was able to give clear and concise information. Has printed notes available for all chapters on his D2L, look over those if you want to pass the tests! TESTS ARE HARD, PROFESSOR IS GOOD.

Great professor for BSTAT. This course does have difficult material but he does everything he can to help students succeed. Notes, slides, and practice problems posted online. Lots of opportunities for points. Attendence is not mandatory but I highly recommend it bc he goes over alot each lecture. He is ALWAYS in a happy mood and available to help.

Great professor! You have to earn your grade, but he makes it easy to do so. There are 3 tests, a mandatory bonus test, and an optional final that replaces the lowest grade. Homework consists of quizzes that go over exactly what you did in class; he drops the lowest 2. Very nice and wants makes sure you understand the material before he moves on!

Professor Dodonova is a solid professor. I had to work for my grade. He explains material well and knows his stuff . Make sure to show up to the test reviews. The test is 3 parts ; multiple choice part in class (the hardest part) , in class open note part ,and the take home part (both of which are easy and save your ass on the test grade).

This class can material can be difficult for some to understand. Be aware, some of the instructions are not translated for MAC users (Excel). There are 3 tests (90% of your grade), bonus test that doesn't count against you and an optional final. 20 quizzes, lowest 2 dropped. Overall, he is a very solid choice and is always very helpful. Nice Guy.

Mr. Dodonova is great! You don't have to come to class, but going definitely helps you understand the material. 3 tests, all with three parts: in-class, excel take-home, and concepts (the most difficult of the three being the concepts). An optional final that replaced my lowest test grade (brought me from a b to an A). Two quizzes from each chap.

Overall he is great at teaching this course. I struggled with the content, but if you attend class he really helps to explain the material. He does post his notes online, so if you skip class you can attempt to teach yourself. Tests are 90% of the grade with a final that replaces your lowest grade.

Professor Dodonova is an amazing professor who makes BSTAT understandable. There are three tests that are divided into three parts: concepts, problems, and Excel that are 90% of the grade and an optional final that replaces the lowest test score; extra credit is offered too. Just be sure to do the homework (10% of the grade) and come to class!

One of the best professors I've had at KSU. You have to work for an A but it's entirely possible if you put in the effort. I absolutely bombed my first test but because of his grading scale I was able to make a complete comeback. GO TO CLASS. The textbook won't help you and neither will his notes without his in-class explanations. Great guy.

Not sure why there are any negative reviews. For an online class he posts a video explaining the material clearly and has online meetings if you would like further help. Only graded by weekly quizzes and 3 exams but they are easy and he gives you everything you need to succeed. I got an A with maybe 15 hours of studying for the whole semester.

Does an excellent job for a online class. Prerecorded lectures, plus weekly optional live session that counts a extra credit if you attend. Book i not required but may help some people. Follow along with lectures and practice, not a hard class if you pay attention and do the minimum your suppose to.

I took prof Dodonova for ECON2300 & 3300. He is a great professor and his classes aren't too hard. My advice is to go to class and follow along in excel on all the examples. It will help you learn. The quizzes and tests will be much easier, plus you will learn a lot of excel from this professor.

If your looking for an easy professor for this course in general, there isn't one. The course has the highest turnover rate in Coles college so just be prepared for the workload. Prof. Dodonova isn't insanely difficult, his test are all 3 parts (Excel, Concepts, Problems) but they count for large portions of your grade.

The course material is hard. He lets you attend class online, then posts your classes lecture videos on D2L, and also provides other pre-recorded lecture videos. If you want to attend class and expect to understand the material out of just that do not take this professor. He is fast paced, but provides his students with proper amount of resources.

The course is hard, but Dr. D made it very doable. All materials are posted online, including the class sessions and notes. He always takes time to review and constantly asks for student feedback on how he can make the course better. Dr. D does teach quickly though and it's easy to get lost while in class, but he is always willing to help!

App stat is hard as is. But Prof. D made it doable. He posts a multitude of material to d2l including lectures so you will have a lot to study from. He goes through problems in excel during class. Follow along and it will help a lot. I learned a lot about excel from him. 10/10 professor and I would take him again no questions asked.

BSTAT is hard. He goes above and beyond in trying to teach the material. Grades consist of 3 test in 3 sections (problems, concepts and excel portion). He does lots of review, but takes a lot of studying. Does offer extra credit. weekly quizzes 2 parts (problems and concepts) no lockdown/webcam on anything but you won't find exam answers online.

I loved Prof. Dodonova!! This class is hard no matter what, but he made it enjoyable. He can go kinda fast during lectures, so sometimes it can be hard to keep up, but he records class so you can always go back and watch the parts you missed. He can also be pretty funny. Overall, highly recommend. One of my favorite professors in Coles for sure!

Very great and knowledgeable professor!

Prof. D is very knowledgeable and makes this course very convenient. All lectures are recorded which is very helpful for the Excel projects. He is the only professor I've had that records and posts the lectures at KSU. Throughout the course, it's 3 exams along with an Excel project for each. Attendance is not needed to do well in this course.

A basic understanding of excell would be good going into the class, if you miss a -to-class you will be okay but being there definitely helps, recorded lectures are very helpful with harder to retain concepts. He goes over everything really well. There is 5pts worth of extra credit which is nice. Very nice and easygoing guy!

I took Professor Dodonova for both ECON 2300 and 3300. He explains every thing very well, and while he does move a bit quickly, you can just watch the lectures again since he records them. That also means you don't have to worry if you need to miss class. There are several attempts for quizzes, and he always reviews before the tests.

Prof. D's course is challenging but manageable with the resources provided, like recorded lectures and a helpful Excel focus. Using Unstuckstudy alongside the materials helped me stay on top of the content.

This man is amazing!!! I would take him 1000 times over if i could. He has made learning business statistics simple. Not only did I succeed in this class and pass with an A+, but I also became Excel Savvy! PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND TAKE HIM FOR ECON 2300!

Easy professor, nice guy, class is super clear with step by step lessons on how to complete excel projects. Attendance not mandatory and all lectures are posted online. 3 exams 30% each with weekly hw 10%. Exams spilt into 3 parts, an excel project, a multiple choice exam on the content (lockdown), and math problem exam (open note).
