Took this professor because people made it seem like it wouldnt be too bad. Every assignment is worth a big chunk of your grade. Six quizzes and the midterm (30%) and final (35%). If you arent doing well with one topic that one thing can ruin your grade and chance of passing. Open book but not every answer can be found on powerpoints.

Terrible.Seems like a nice guy but quizzes are insane.30 minutes for 15 questions it takes a couple of minutes to solve certain questions so it is unrealistic. Curved midterm grades cuz many got low grades or failed. Quiz grades fluctuate It is insanely hard to do well.Convinced those who do well spend 80% of their free time studying for this class

Lots of reading (textbook on archive-org). Assignments: 2 article summaries (you choose from 3 in each assignment). Midterm: mostly on lecture notes/recordings (its a hard exam but is curved 15 points; 5 = participation). Final paper: any topic of choice, run it by him before starting. About tough grading-- just follow ALL instructions explicitly.

Just finished this class with Professor Park and it was a doozy. Graded on 4 quizzes, a midterm and a final. The quizzes are based solely on articles that don't really help you to learn course content. Midterm and final weren't too bad, but you essentially have to teach everything to yourself. Overall, was not the best way to learn curriculum.

I respect him. He's smart and he tries his best. If you're not good at math, this class will be really tough. He does curve grades like the midterm, drops the lowest quiz score, and assigns extra credit assignments for the midterm and final. He is a good professor, the material is just difficult overall. A lot of the work requires memorization.

Professor isn't horrible, if you're not good at math don't worry. GET THE TEXTBOOK! The HW and quizzes are most of your grade so do them, show up to class and pay attention. Go to class on time, don't miss, this isn't a easy class so put the work in for a decent grade. Attend office hours after midterm, you might get more partial credit.

Prof. Park is a great professor in teaching stat. It's a tough subject, but he really helped me get through it. I think I wouldn't have completed it without his help. I felt he is strict about a few things, but is fair mostly. He really wants students do well in his class. Lots of practice questions were provided. I think I learned a lot. Take him

Professor Park is a nice and patient teacher. He really wanted to help student perform well. I struggled before the midterm, but was able to catch up. He gave many practice questions before the final. He also gave extra credit opportunities. it was really helpful. I like the way he teaches.

HIGHLY recommend him if PSY2100 is a core requirement. Material is difficult, but as long as you know where he asks his questions you'll be fine. Course is great even if you don't like math. Lecture notes, ppt slides, and HW questions provided: all top-notch. If online: quizzes and exams open-note, open-book!

i took professor park over the summer second session. we were graded on one article summary paper, one quiz, one midterm, and one six page final paper. the class is very material-dense and be prepared to READ. it's not an easy A. you definitely have to put in the work but as long as you try hard and understand the material you'll do well

An amazing course filled with such interesting topics. Weekly article summaries that would take me about 5 hrs to do. Seems like a lot of work but honestly wasn't awful because the topics were so engaging and thought-provoking. If you don't like reading, I wouldn't recommend taking this class. If you like psychology and forensics, I recommend.

Two summary article's - they have to be extremely detailed or else you won't have the best grade… One Exam - all multiple choice so it isn't too bad, you can refer to the slides and articles… 8 page paper w/ 5 journal or empirical articles - to be a short and fast paced course this is excessive. Genuinely the only thing I disliked about the course.

Second time taking him - my favorite professor at Baruch! Very detailed and open-book MCQ midterm, 2 + 1 extra-credit article summaries, 8-page research paper. His ppt slide voiceovers make the material fun to learn. VERY accessible and overall fair prof. This is an A for effort (not easy-A) class. Take Jai if you're attentive to details like him.

All he's given me throughout the semester were B's. I did everything he asked to get an A, and that's impossible to reach. What more details do you want from me? He wants things to be extremely detailed WHICH WAS DONE but that wasn't enough to him. How have I gotten A's in my other classes but this class I just somehow couldn't get an A? Ridiculous

I was interesting in the class topic, however, professor Park's classes weren't very stimulating. It was also difficult to communicate with him about projects. I personally enjoy taking notes so I did like note taking for this class but if that's not for you, be prepared to take lots of notes.

Summer session class which I enjoyed, & learned a lot in a short peiod of time. Expectations were clear & precise. Take notes of his lectures. We had a final paper, open-book quiz & midterm (which I was grateful for because there was a lot of info from the power points). Put in the work & more; you'll do great. I would definitely take him again.

Professor Park is such a sweet and genuine guy who wants everyone in his class to do their best. He makes you feel comfortable and understood when he knows math can be difficult. As someone who is not good at math, I always felt I could raise my hand or talk to him about it. Would highly recommend!

Took the class in the summer of 2025, and will take a course with him in the winter session. Prof. Park is a great professor. He outlines the course clearly. Lectures, readings, MC exam, and final paper. The workload is a lot, but if you put in the work you'll do great. I recommend him if you're willing to work for your grade.

Statistics is a somewhat difficult course, however this professor truly cares about this subject and you can tell. The way he teaches helps you understand with ease, with the way his course structure is set up it's nearly impossible to fail or do bad in his class as long as you show up on time to all of the lessons. He's super nice, def recommend.

It was a good class till the final. He graded weirdly and took off points for no reason. Assignments were based on 6 quizzes, midterm, final. It was a easy class since it was online asych but grading seemed random and all over the place when it came to the final where you had to show work.

He'll literally not tell you what you need to do to earn a decent grade. Never accessible outside of class, and the DB posts actually matter-that tanked my grade! If you can take another prof, he ain't worth it.
