I loved this class. It was so easy. He only made us learn the important stuff. We gave group presentations and even had a take home test submitted online. Mr. Dell is a wonderful & very smart guy. Definently would recommend.

easy, nice, helpful

He is a great prof. Always willing to help and does what he can to make sure the students do well. If ppl aren't catching on, he will actually slow down and go over everything again! VERY VERY HELPFUL!

he is helpful

Easy professor! He is very helpful! Study his review well and you'll do well on his tests!

helpfull, great nice, challenges individuals. he is awsome. if you don't understand he takes time after class to explain it again if you talk to him. he goes over his notes and the exams are from the notes in class. wow.

If you go to call and practice problems from lecture - an A is easy. Dell is very easy going. I definitely recommend him

He is a great professor! If he notices that students are confused, he'll go over the subject again. Gives a great review for tests! you don't have to memorize formulas, but you have to understand them...which is pretty easy if you keep up. He's always willing to help and uses attendance and easy projects to help boost your grade.

Absolutely phenomenal teacher! He helps anyone that needs it and when he recognizes you are a hard worker he helps you even more. Tests a little difficult but he gives fantastic reviews, Wanted a B in the class and got an A because of his curve. Don't miss this teacher!

Dell is extremely helpful, you can call him anytime and he'll try his best to answer your questions. You have 3 group presentations, they're easy. He gives reviews for the test, they're extremely helpful. Do examples in the book to fully comprehend the concept. I have taken him twice and I got B's. He curves--ALOT!! I highly recommend him.

Prof. Dell is very helpful and very easy but if you really want to learn the material I would take Leung or Kenworth. No homework, two presentations that were very easy and great review sheets for test.

Really helpful and obviously knows what he's talking about. Stats isn't my thing at all but he makes it easy to understand.One test was mult. choice and work out problems(wasn't bad) and second test on webct. I would definitely recommend. And ladies..prof dell isn't bad on the eyes either ;-)

Pretty fair professor...the class itself was meant to be challenging but he's willing to help if he can. Not one for jokes or entertainment...simple there to teach. not one for humor...tricky on his tests...he'll give questions where there is no answer...but fails to warn that no answer is an option.

Professor Dell is awesome! He is an extremely smart person that also knows how to teach very well! He helps students when needed and connects well with the class. I would definitely take another course of his!

Professor Dell is a precarious fellow, for some reason he carries a flashlight with him at all times on his bely (maybe in case of a drastic power outage). He is probably one of the better statistics professors here at UTSA and if you get the chance definitely take him. However, he is very detail oriented.

Dell was a good teacher, but wouldnt take again. Dell has several group projects and his tests are all hand written out with work (no multiple choice). I felt like he tried to trick us on tests & he does LOTS of class examples in Excel so fast you cant tell whats going on, but during the test you have to do it by hand. hard class, but he's nice.

Great teacher. Stats 3 is hard enough, but he makes it a little easier. There are two big presentations in class, but if you do them and attempt to understand, he grades reasonably.

Did not follow the syllabus at all re: grading (e.g. said there would be quizzes/class exercises and there weren't). Did not provide timely grades on assignments and presentations. He posted grades in the last two weeks of the semester. Not organized, but overall class was easy. I hoped to learn something, but didn't get much out of this class.

Stats isn't really my thing, but I attended every class and managed to pull an 'A'. Don't skip lectures, he covers a lot and tends to go pretty fast, he also gives quizzes randomly. Try to find a good group for the presentations. There were 2 Exams, the first was the hardest, the second was a take-home + a non-cumm Final. Overall not bad.

I took his course this summer and got an 'A' and believe me he goes very fast in the class but the exams are similar to what he teaches in the class and have many pop quizes in class. definitely you can learn a lot from his class.

Test were hard but learn alot about excel. You need a laptop to survive

I have a love/hate opinion of this professor.I agree that he IS TOO SMART TO BE A TEACHER.He goes WAY to FAST!He is tricky.His tests are tricky and during his lectures he makes everything seem so easy until you try to do it yourself.You do LEARN ALOT though.Don't miss ANY class,do practice problems in book.He is funny and hot. Very respectable too.

What everyone else has said. He teaches fast, he expects you to remember things from the first 2 stats courses, and you'd better be sharp with Excel. If you meet that description, this course is an easy A. If not, you may want to take another professor.

intense class, the second test on excel was pretty hard...i would only recommend this prof if you are an MS major (you get more out of it like using excel solver and learning about doing stuff on the computer). if you're not a MS major, it might be best to take another prof. easy to understand what he's saying compared to other profs but he's fast

class was not too bad. the midterm project for project mgt took a lot more time than you think...the rest of the class was not too bad he grades fair the teacher is more accessible in this class than his 3043 or 3053 classes

A good teacher. You must do the practice problems on the syllabus and actually understand the material to do well on the exams. This should not be a surprise. People expect this to be a plug and chug formula class when it is not that simple. He presents the information clearly and with examples similar to questions on the exam.

I would definitely recommend taking Dell. The class is worth the investment if you're trying to learn. Even though the subject was tough he made it easy to understand by relating it to real life scenarios. Learned a lot more than just MS in this class.

Yes he does go fast, but over all it's a good class. If you go to class and do the suggested questions you will do fine. You don't need to buy the book, the library has it on reserve.

Pay attention in class because you'll be confused if you study by yourself since he uses EXCEL a lot. Tests are from quizzes/problems given during lectures. Presentation was really difficult, so pick INV,FIN,and ACC majors or anybody that always came to class in your group, since they'll understand the problems better. Tests=OK,Presentation=HARD.

Pretty good teacher, sort of fast with the material took his MS 4313 class very informative in regards to lean six sima. Overall pretty good material he goes fast but their is a lot of material to cover.

He is an amazing character, smart and teaches really fast in the class. Uses excel to do all of calculations in the class. Can pass based on the class material .

Concise, smart, admirable, and influential. Dell knows what he's talking about. His vocabulary is large and a joy to listen and learn from. His mere intelligence is fascinating and a joy to be a student of. He understands the audiences he is teaching to unfortunately won't understand completely and be motivated by it so he sensibly accommodates.

You have to show up to class, you have to do outside work, you have to attend SI sessions if you dont get it, you have to do everything to get a good grade in this class. This isn't a class you can do bare minimum and skate by. I am taking Dell again for 3053 and despite only getting a B, I'm not worried.

He breaks down the material in a way that it is easy, and simple for students to learn. He does not put unecessary stress on students, like most professors tend to do. I was lucky to take him, because this is a difficult subject. I highly recommend him for MS.

Pay attention during lectures, do practice problems, and read book would make an A. He knows the material well and breaks it down for a greater understanding

Professor Dell isn't the best at actually teaching students, he more or less just goes over broad, vague topics in class. He doesn't require attendance but in class pop quizzes (which he gives you a 100 just for showing up) really carry your grade. You can do average at best on tests and still come out with a decent grade because of quizzes.

Not a hard professor, he actually understands that stats is hard so he gives us a lot of extra credit quizzes and curves exams if most of the class avg is low which it is. Study his review questions and most of them will be on the tests. Final was a bit rough so do good on the first 2 tests. Also pick out good team members for the presentations.

He is an amazing with his knowledge but he goes too fast in classroom. He correlates classroom stats with real-world problems. Easy A provided if you attend classes and follow his instructions. Exams are based on what is discussed in classroom. Pop quiz and attendance will give 10% of grade. Select your group wisely for group projects

Stats 2 is a tough course. Dell makes it easy by letting you use notes most times on the exams. One group presentation that is really easy. Do decent on exams and youll pass. He makes some really sassy comments during class that are hilarious lol!! Best choice for stats 2 if youre just looking to get in and get out. Always lets us out early!!

Okay, Jacob Dell is hands down the funniest professor I've ever taken. His humor is dry and sarcastic, and comes at the most unexpected times. This class is really tough and his lectures are not THAT helpful, BUT he does prepare you for the tests. Go to the review classes. There is only 2 attendance "quizzes" even though he says there will be 10.

Professor Dell is a straightforward guy. He gives all the hws and test at the beginning of the semester and gives u due dates when posted. U pretty much have all semester to submit assignments as long as theyre submitted by the due date. U just have to be diligent and make a schedule for urself and not get off guard and lose track.

Everyone saying bad things about Prof. Dell are haters. He cuts his students so much slack. If you just payed attention, you would understand whats being asked of you. This has been one of the most easy going classes I've taken. If you fail his class it's literally your fault because he makes it so easy to pass. 10/10, I'm taking him again.

Professor Dell is by far one of my favorite Profs. His classes are very straightforward and if you listen you can easily make an A. He keeps his lectures entertaining and he is easy to understand. He will reply to emails if it's a legitimate question. Lenient with homework and test extensions if you need it. Very laid back class, just do the work.

He cares about people passing. Stats is a horrific subject of mine but he makes it easy to do and understand. I ended up teaching myself a lot more than I learned from him but he is very accessible outside of class for any questions. Tests are open whenever, and you can do them over multiple days as long as they are done by due date. Good Prof.

Prof Dell explains this difficult subject in a way that makes it easy to understand. Exams are free to enter and leave all you want before due date. Homework has 5 tries! Uses Cengage. Replies quickly in Ask My Instructor. Very nice, caring professor and no clue why his rating is so low. I'd take him again! Put in effort and you will do well.

Honestly the material was hard but he shows you exactly step by step how to do it using excel. Exams were open throughout the semester so you could take part of it as you finished each chapter. Easy class if you show up, taking him for MS 3053

all work completed on WebAssign. 3 exams. an easy online class if you have the right study tools for it. work due weekly which is good for staying on track compared to different MS classes

Prof Dell makes lecture videos along with power points for each chapter. The examples go along with the Cengage assignments. Cengage needs to be purchased. The hw was spaced out enough to do a few problems a day. HW gives you 5 tries a problem. For exams there are no additional tries but it's not timed or proctored. Would take him again.

Took Dell's class for both MS3043 and 3053 and both were well taught and easy to follow. There's a group project in 3053 but it wasn't too bad. Exams are very similar to homework so it made it easier to study for.

Assignments are through WebAssign, not proctored. Class is pretty easy, but I learned more from WebAssign than Dell himself. However, for questions that I misunderstood, Dell was always present after lectures or during office hours to fill in those gaps. Pretty easy to get an A for a hard class if you put in average effort.

Took this course online and contains: 11 homework assignments and 3 exams. Homework on Cengage allows for multiple attempts and easy to get good grade. Homework and exams are open since the beginning of class and each have a deadline. Overall, easy class and would recommend it.

The teacher taught the class well, he simplified a difficult subject so that it is easy to learn. His lectures are fast paced, so I would recommend recording the lectures. But you have homework every week, and three total exams. You can work on the exams at any point in time, and offers an opportunity for test corrections.

If you need to take this course take Dell. He goes over homework in lectures that are exact to exams. I took him online easy straight forward course.

Incredibly easy to receive a high grade, but it's important you show-up to class. All graded assignments are done in class with him goin over it step by step. The tests given were to check knowledge growth and counted for very little of your grade. Show-up, follow his tutorial, and receive an easy A.

This class was promoted as the main core class at UTSA that business students fail. If you go to more than half the classes you will be fine. He shows you how to do the problems step-by-step. I would definitely recommend taking him. The late points aren't too harsh either!
