the best!!

Required for profs with more than 5 ratings

Smart and entertaining - no wammies!

he talks about sports a lot

Very good teacher. Like sports. Unfortunatly he likes the Oilers.

Awesome professor, know's his stuff and teaches it well too!

Awesome prof! Actually makes 3 hours of stats not that bad. Teaches well so it's easy to study for his midterms.

wicked prof

talks about sports a bit too much, and his notes are pretty much the condensed textbook. But he gives you lots of tips seeing as how he's so fresh from being a student himself compared to a lot of the profs

Makes class interesting by poking fun at the Leafs and telling side stories. Makes math not as boring as it can be. Work gets harder as the class goes along.

Too much sports, boring class and overall wasted time copying down notes word by word. If only he would sell them in a package, class would be more entertaining. Regardless though, he's a good guy and he will help you out if needed.

Love this guy! We need more profs like him. He makes stats a little fun!

Prof. Adcock brings light to a dull subject. Provides clarity in his teaching with extensive notes that are essential to the course.

Rock on Adcock. Too bad Ms. Becker went back to Africa but I don't think anyone had a problem with it. Prof. Adcock deals in excellent lectures and the occassional stab at the Leafs. Doesn't matter though Who watches Hockey anyways? LOL

Great prof, makes stats about as fun as it can be. Exams are easy.

easy course to do well in. get old exams - they will help A LOT. definetly a fair proff

Ended up with a 96 in the course, 95 percent of the reason was Adcock. One of the best teachers in the school.

very good proff!!!

uses interesting examples that we can actually relate to, a ton of fun

his notes are really good

TAKE HIM- he's SOOOOOOO AWESOME

Professor Adcock is pretty cool. He is willing to help and his exams aren't hard. His classes are boring, but stats isn't exactly riveting. Make sure you go to the first class to hear him make fun of his own name.

Very clear and helpful

This guy's good, and cute.

great teacher, great sense of humour, great smile, and a great ass

As good as stats could possibly be!

Sometimes with large classes he can make thinks confusing for some. However if you just go talk to him outside of class, he can really help. He knows his stuff. He is also very approchable, so don't worry about that.

the course is a joke b/c everyone finds old exams and he recycles questions. impossible not to get an A if you attend class and pay attention, but a couple of his exam questions can be a little tricky. he's incredibly boring and thinks we care about his personal life

He's ridiculously funny. Really quite a jackass, but in a very funny way. I personally enjoyed the tangents about his personal life, and make sure you go to the first class (its priceless). The content is not hard, but as boring as he is funny. Don't take this class at night. Three hours is too long. You will want to go home.

I'm not sure what the last person is talking about. He tries to make sure that you know your stuff and there's anything wrong with that. After taking his class, I can say that I understand stats and it's because of him. I would definitely recommend him and his class.

Leaf basher. But made night classes more enjoyable.

No mercy in his leaf bashing. Also gives the impression that he is only teaching because he hasn't won the lottery yet. Hilarious too, I losve his reactions when someone says something really stupid. Great prof.

The Leaf bashing is hilarious. He gives lots and lots of examples in class, which I think is a really good thing.

His Leaf bashing is old, same couple jokes, made worse by the fact he's an Oilers fan :O:O:O:O

Love the class! All around good guy! Makes stats as fun as it can be!

Good guy, very helpful, recommended

Thanks for a great class Adcock!

Good guy, loves being a prick though when he can. tough course towards the end

EASY AND FUNNY PROF! Lectures can get long and boring at times, but his jokes will wake u up! Course material is a joke (do Grade 12 probability for first semester!). And loves to diss the Leafs a lot!

What a great instructor! I missed half of his classes and still came out with 83%! He knows the material cold and he's very easy to talk to. Not only that, he made time to squeeze in real life lessons, like negotiating with mortgage officers.

His exam was very difficult, but I'm sure if I had paid more attention in class I could have done better. His lectures are straight from the textbook.

Awesome professor. I found his classes very interesting. He's very easy-going and explains things thoroughly, though a bit hastened. He's also very helpful outside of class. If he'd be teaching any courses I need to take in the future, I'm definetly picking him.

Goes WAY too quickly, almost seems impatient or rude when people don't get it right away. Try to keep things light by making jokes, most which fall flat. Wouldn't take another course with him.

He's a genuine and fun guy. His jokes are original but they're hard to laugh at first thing in the morning. Teaching-wise, he's solid in explaining things although he goes a little fast. He's good for help outside of class as well. As for his exams, they're much easier than you'd expect and the questions are very similar to the practice ones.

Great prof! He teaches more interesting things other than just the curriculum (eg. RRSPs, strategies gambling using stats, sports stats, etc.) Keep up with the homework and you should be fine!

fun teacher but do not talk during class he gets really mad

Learning more about stats, and saving and investing.That's not bad considering it's not taught in the course or in any other school before university. Keep it up! Thanks!

i dont get what everyone is talking about? i think he is an amazing prof! always clear... his exams are fair and his practise questions are NOT completely different, they are actually very helpful! He is young and fun. take him!

Great prof. Lectures fast, sure, BUT if you do all your homework and are reasonably profient in math you will be fine. Received a mid-80 in this course after a 5+ year break between HS and Uni, makes some rather difficult concepts easy to grasp with a good explantion of fundamental concepts and supporting examples.

Super nice guy but also a tough prof! Very approachable and willing to help. He will go out of his way to help his students.

Very nice guy, down to joke around. He is very helpful when you need help or have questions.

best stats prof at western! he knows his stuff and knows how to explain it!

AWESOME

He is honestly the best stats teacher. I took his class at King's. He jokes around and goes out of his way to help you succeed in the course. I suck at math and the reason I got through the course was because of him. If you are are taking stats try to get into his class...seriously!

AMAZING prof. He is very funny and crystal clear. He posts his slides which is very nice. Suggestion is to print them off before class and then take side notes in class. He is very helpful and cares for the well-being of his students. Tests are fair so make sure you do your homework!

Good prof in class, Exams are harder than practice exams

Great professor, very enthusiastic and makes a lot of jokes (hockey fans will love him). Explains content thoroughly and responds to emails very quickly, which is great for last minute questions. Pay attention in class and do your homework, you'll do fine

James was a pretty solid professor. He gives fairly hard tests. But a great lecturer. Keeps it simple and is great at explaining complex things in an easier way

Definitely one of the most difficult math courses I've taken, but I've never taken a stats course before. I took this online, in the summer. Professor Adcock was responsive and helpful when explaining concepts in the forum. Tests and quizzes were quite difficult (much harder than textbook questions), but definitely tests your understanding.
