The hardest teacher I have ever had. However, if you apply yourself, you will definitely gain a full understanding of the material, and you can take more from her class(long term) than another professor.

Dr. Kim, is one of the most caring and concerned professors I've had. She tries to assit all of her students. She is not easy but then neither is Statistics. Study hard and you will get a fair grade.

Incredibly patient and helpful. Take her!

She is very knowlegeable, and very a very caring person. Great professor! I highly recommended.

This is stats.You must work hard!Dont blame her because you don't want to work.Dr Kim is compassionate and cares for hers students.If you don't understand, ask her for help. Advice: start a study group.(I did and it really helps)

OK, I will speak in Dr. Kim's defense: Do not expect to do well in stats without putting the work in. Don't complain about Dr. Kim because she doesn't baby her students. She's very knowledgable and will help you with anything if you ask. And the power point presentation is a real life application -- you know, the REAL WORLD.

The students that gave her a bad rating are used to getting A’s for mediocre work. I worked really hard for my A, but it was worth it. I learned a lot more from her than any other econ. professor at PCC. STOP WHINING AND DO YOUR WORK!

She really isnt that bad. You don't need to memorize anything. This class was so easy. I got the easy A during Summer, however, i must point out there were some that suffered. Here my observation, if you are really bad at algebra to begin with, just forget it. No homework is due, but there's final project

This is a hard class, there's no avoiding that. But if you do the small amount of homework she gives and study a little it not so bad. I'm not a math person, yet I still got an A in the class. Kim makes the class as entertaining as possible for a Stat class. Shes actually a realy good teacher regardless of what everyone else says.

Damn, one of the easiest classes I have ever taking. The first test was super easy, and she even said it was like a gift. I can't believe that people failed that test. All you have to do is read the book and pay attention and you should do fine. People who are complaining probably didn't study, or there math isn't up to standards.

This was my favorite Stats class ever! I have never had so much fun in a Math class before taking Kim. If you want to learn, take her. You will learn how to apply Stats to Social Sciences. Stat 50 is a pure math class, but Stat 18 will teach you how to apply Statistic Principles to everyday life. Really, this is the most worthwhile class at PCC.

I took her during the winter 06 session and got, to me, an easy A. But, many people did not like her teaching because she wasn't very helpful in explaining things. She has "quizzes" and "group quizzes" almost every class period to make sure that people understand what is going on, but she still grades them.

I don't understand why some people think her class is hard. Her grading scale is awesome! You dont have to much pay attention in class (for stat). You can study on your own and easily pass the class with a B. For econ, pay attention and take notes, that's it.

good teacher. knows what she's doing and how to explain herself concisely and clearly. has good examples to relate problems with. have to work for your grade. really funny, too.

Oh my gosh how can anyone say these things about her! She is a totally cool professor, how could you not get along with her? She is very particular and meticulous about the work you do, the class is not easy; but it isn't impossible, she gives you sample quizzes and exams online. There are weekly quizzes and exams and I think she is very helpful.

tHE CLASS IS HARD, NOT IN THE SENSE THAT YOU WONT UNDERSTAND IT, IT JUST TAKES A LOT OF STUDYING TO KNOW MATERIAL. MRS KIM IS VERY GOOD, IF YOU MAKE THE EFFORT USE THE TUTORS YOU WILL PASS CLASS. I went to class everymorning after working graveyard shift, I was half asleep in classes, but i used much of my spare time to study.

normal level math class, but a lot of formulas and rules. she is a funny teacher, and she knows everything. she'll go over problems until u understand and if u do hw and take notes u will get at least a c.

I thought she was a fantastic teacher. There is a LOT of work in this class, so don't take it unless you have time to spare...like all your time. start a study group, go see the tutor, or just pay attention, take notes and you'll do just fine.

This is an o.k class attendance is really important because quizes are given without prior notice. If you do the homework, which she never collects, take notes, and pay attention you'll pass the class. It's an easy class but you have to be in task and be serious about the class.

I really don't think this is a difficult class at all. She prepares u well for the tests by giving you previous quizzes and tests to practice before she gives u the real exam. I actually didn't spend a whole lot of time on this subject. BTW, u have to pay lots of effort on the final project, but if u picked a good topic, it's gonna be interesting.

I took this class having not taken a math course in years. I petitioned my way in and ended up getting a B in the class. Dr. Kim is a fantastic teacher. She gives you practice exams that are near identical to the real thing. She would go over topics as many times as people wanted until we understood. Overall an interesting class and great prof.

Outstanding instructor. Worth making a special effort to take her class.

Class is interesting, not too easy nor too difficult.

Lectures can be confusing at first, but ask questions & she'll clarify things. Participate for her to know you by name - that way, she'll be able to help you more when you need it. Final project is choosing some topic for a survey. She gives out lots of quizzes daily. Some are individual or group work. You gotta understand statistics to pass!

Recommended. You can't expect anything more from a professor in regards to providing you sources to study from. You can find many of her exams and worksheets straight from her website. She may derail from topics at times and talk about her life..she can be unclear in her lecture, but if you don't understand, let her know and she will clarify it.

She is a tough teacher,and it will be stressful at times. That's a good thing people. She really challenges you. If you attend all classes, and take the pop quizes that's an extra A added to your final grade!! Pay attention, ask questions, and get help from the tutor if need be. If I can make an A in the class, ANYONE CAN. (Do the work)

She's really not that bad you guys. I was terrified to take this class after reading all of these ratings but shes actually a REALLY GOOD TEACHER. Shes really good at explaining the material... though she grades tough, there are other opportunities to make up your grade. She wants you to do well. She's really nice too!!

Okay teacher. I took this class over the short winter term in 07 and got a good grade. She's helpful if you are attentive and if you show that you are trying, she'll do her best to point you in the right direction.

Prof Kim tries to let students who understand the material not be burdened with extra work. If you need help, she is happy to give it in class or during her office hours. There is also free tutoring in this subject at Pcc. I did a really poor job on my final project and still got an A.

Sometimes the assigned textbook homework and reading made the lecture more confusing. But, if you have the time, and can spend a lot of time studying and can get to the tutor, you should be able to pass.

Dr. Kim really cares about her students and is great at making sure you fully understand. The exams come straight from lecture. There are quizzes every week, some are extra credit, others are group quizzes and they are all exactly like the exam. She drops your lowest exam and the final project will help boost your grade.

Dr. Kim is THE BEST professor to take when signing up for Statistics. To me, Statistics is like a foreign language, but she really takes the time to explain everything in detail. She's a stickler for attendance and encourages strong study skills. If you don't pay attention in class you'll miss something. 1st 4 wks- quizzes are completed in groups!

She's a fantastic teacher, but I don't think she also realizes how great of a role model she is. Stats 18 is a hard class it always has been; don't expect any short cuts in life. Extremely helpful and understands the life of a student. Take her, but the effort is in your hands.

You don't have to memorize formulas. Substitute the data into formula, then solve. How hard is that people? Statistics is less math and more context. Take the time to understand it contextually and you'll breeze through the class. No homework, just quizzes and exams and final project with presentation, with optional final exam at end of semester

Dr. Kim is a wonderful professor/lecturer (and coming from someone who's always been terrible at math, that says alot). Disregard the negative comments--the students who tend to dislike her are the ones who are unwilling to put in the effort. She's very personable...and honestly, I've yet to have a better math professor :] She's really wonderful :]

SHES SO EASY TAKE HER! I GOT A C BUT IM STILL TRANSFERRING to BERKELEY ....she has the cutest personality.

I also had her in winter. she's wonderful.based on my experiences,those who never did many exercises from the book&quizzes/listened to her lectures were the ones getting a d/failing the class.one of my friend never opened the book,but listened to her lectures only.She could pass.if you want better grades,don't be lazy.that applies to all classes

The first day, some girl sitting next to me told me I'd fail like she did the first time if I didnt do the hw. I never opened the book, I never did the hw except the mock exam and mandatory hw, and I'm getting an A. If you just listen to the lecture you'll be fine. She is a great professor, just pay attention to the lectures and you'll do fine.

It is a hard class, but as long as you pay attention to her lecture and follow it, you'll be fine. She's very nice, funny and patient. She will review/ explain a concept over and over again just to let you get it. She failed a lot of people, but I don't think it's her fault. She is willing to help you pass as long as you show the effort. Work hard!

ugh... hated it. too much expectations and a project that consumes too much time. that's all i want to say.

she is nice and we had 4 test and final is optional it can replace one of the lowest test score, and she doesn't use textbook during the lecture, but you need to read it and do your homework to get an A ! oh only one project! can work in group

The best professor I've had at PCC. I never did any of the homework assignments and still did incredibly well in the class. Listen to her lectures and ASK QUESTIONS! If you do well on the mock exam and ask questions the first time around you'll do fine. The final project only took me a week, she is extremely reasonable.

On one hand she's a great teacher that does her best to make u understand the subject. She's very smart like a human calculator. but she's also pretty tough cuz in the end stats is tough. i had to take her twice and she'll give past students priority when it comes to adding. got an A second time around. make sure u ask questions when ur stuck!!!

she is great professor. know how to teach, answer questions, give mock exam before real test, explain every test and quiz. we only had 4 tests, 1 project, and attendance+hw+quizzes for our grade. the final is optional and lowest grade got dropped! also, she gives out extra credit+take home exam. get an A if u do your work. TAKE HER, SHE IS GREAT!!

She was the worst biased prof. ever! she was unfair and a girl dropped bcuz shegave her friend a higher score on the quizzes and she went to complain about it. Kim gave her a hard time when she could of acted more professional.Kim made an error and should of corrected w/o a problem.Students pay to go to school and it's her job to correct accurately

Honestly, I liked the class. It's an extremely difficult class and she's a really nice teacher. Do not think of this as a regular math class because you have to explain most of your answers. Prof.Kim is definitely one of my favorite teachers.

This is a very difficult class to teach but if you pay attention, she actually explains things as clearly as she possibly can. She is more helpful if you ask questions! if no one asks Q's, she assumes everyone understands it. Just ask! Do the hw, study the quizzes & you'll be fine. You have to put the work in but she will help in any way she can.

i dont know why people said she is hard. the subject might be difficult for some people; however, a B or higher is absolutely doable! just ask questions if you dont understand something. you gotta work hard and pay attention!! ya i got an A

I don't understand why people are saying that this class is hard. It was just like any other math class, takes time, practice, and studying. If you do your homework and listen in class then I don't see how you can do poorly. She is also a very considerate when it comes to your grades. Just go and talk to her if you have any problems or questions.

This was probably the hardest subject that i took here at PCC, but I managed to get a C in this class. Professor Kim is an awesome teacher because she tried to make the subject easy to understand. on the test, make sure you write mini essays on the written response b/c that's where all of my points were docked off.

i think the reason why people hate her b/c she's a very typical hardcore korean mom. she's a tough teacher, but once you get used to this teaching style, you'll learn. for example, i wasn't used to this at the beginning of the semester & was failing the class; but @ the end of the semester, i got a C. put the time to learn the subject.

I took her for summer and I thought she was quite helpful. I did spend like 7 hours everyday reading the book and doing the homework, but I sucked at math, so I gotta do what I gotta do. I learned a lot about how to analyze graphs, use equations, and apply math concepts to real life. I also enjoyed playing around with Excel and her jokes.

She curves her exams based on the performance of all her sections, so grading can be quite generous. She is great at explaining concepts, but she makes herself unavailable during office hours and tells you to go to the stats tutor in the Social Science Learning Center if you have homework questions.

She does care about her students and makes statistic easy to learn. I enjoyed her class.

Great professor! While this is not an easy class, she makes the material easier to understand. Don't be intimated, she's a very sweet person and dedicated to her student's learning! If you're willing to put in the effort and time then you should have no problem with this class. Not an easy A but will prepare you for UC level classes!

You will laugh. You will cry. You will conquer! This class is difficult but if you do your time, you will pass! Do the homework and complete the quizzes BEFOFE meeting for class because everything will make sense. You can't solely rely on the prof. You have to take responsibility for your own learning too.

Yes, this is a hard class (it's statistics duh) but contrary to what most ppl say she DOES care about her students succeeding. I recommend doing the hw before she teaches it in class so it's not as overwhelming. As long as you understand the concepts you'll be fine (and make sure you have smart ppl for your group project)

Honestly, I was never good with numbers, but Dr. Kim changed that. She explains in detail what those numbers mean and how they're related to one another. She is a very dedicated instructor, would recommend taking her if you are in for some serious learning! PROTIP: study her online packets. You'll thank me later.

Dr. Kim is an amazing and very dedicated professor. Her lectures were a lot easier to understand than the book. Make sure to do her brainstorms and homework! Her exams resemble some of her brainstorm questions.

Was my only class last summer and I highly recommend it in summer bc she didn't have us do the group project (sounds super hard). Moves fast so put in MANY hrs everyday. VERY CLEAR PROFESSOR, just need to do all the work she asks. Read chapters before class and THEN listen to lectures (Trust, helps so much) Find smart, hard working ppl to work with

She is a very knowledgable instructor and explains statistics clearly. She is difficult and requires a lot of you. Expect to do all the homework and handouts to do well as her exams come from these. She could have explained her expectations of her project more thoroughly as I felt that many of us were marked off for things she did not explain.

Multiple choice exams a lot of extra credit and optional final. Easiest 1b professor, ask anyone who has actually taken her class. Very nice professor!

I loved Professor Kim. She is kind to all of her students, and cares about their success. I learned a lot in her Econ class. My only objections were that she gave out quizzes in EVERY CLASS. She was often disorganized. She had to ask students about schedule, there were grammarproblem issues in tests. Otherwise good class, gives take home tests.

Taking her for econ 1B this semester. It is much easier than the other ratings say she is. Really easy, and she does give a lot of extra credit throughout the class. There are daily quizzes, but they are pretty simple.

Don't know why she has such a bad rating. She is a great professor that actually cares about her students. YES if you are lazy you'll definitely not pass. ECON1B is not an easy subject. She makes it easy for you to understand so if you pay attention and do your HW, it's not so crazy hard. And also she gives a TON of extra credit.

She is by far the best professor I've had at PCC! Her lectures are fun, clear and understandable. You have to read the book to prepare well for the test because there is not enough time to teach all the concepts (she makes this clear at the beg. of semester). An A is perfectly doable in her class if you study for it. I wish I could take her again.

If you're an econ major and wanna be prepared for this major, take her class! The tests are challenging, so you need to spend time to understand the material completely. Taking notes helps you succeed bc the notes are ec. She gives many ec, so don't ever miss a class bc you will lose your chance to get ec. Don't have to take final if you have an A.

Took 1B over summer. Jenni is by no means easy, she wants her students to not only know the micro concepts but understand and apply them in real-world situations. This is a very rewarding class for those that are committed to understanding the subject and have an interest in microecon. Would not recommend if you need hand-holding. Would take again

Make sure you're ready to eat, breathe, and live economics for 16 weeks if you take her. This is probably the most difficult class I took at Pcc but it was so worth it because shes really determined for you to learn. Her lectures are easy to follow but her exams are totally more advanced than what she teaches. She also gives a lot of EC!

Her class isn't hard at all. You just really have to put in the time to learn the material. Idk why she has a low rating she is an excellent professor who does everything she can to make sure you pass, but again you also have to do your part. An A is very achievable in her class.

Honestly this class is not as bad as the review say. I took Dr. Kim for ECON 1B with her. If want to survive her class please read the book. Take lot of notes during class too. As long as you put in the effort its a pretty fun class. Her tests arent too bad, just study up. Dr. Kim is actually a cool professor if you get to know her.

Econ is and has always been a very heavy subject. Dr Kim is very animated during her lectures which helps because it's such a boring subject. She is very responsive to her students if you need to e-mail her or stop by for office hours. Her tests are easy as long as you study your notes and read the book. There are opportunities for extra credit

She is a good professor for Economics 1A; For Spring 2019 semester she changed her grading and and criteria. Assignments are optional, i would suggest to do them to help prep for exams. Exams all multiple choice. Have to study for this class and she is open to meetings to help you. Grade based of exams; gives extra credit assginment up to 30pts.

Take her class she is the best Econ professor at PCC just take with her and you will pass

One of the best Econ professor she really care about students take with her

easiest economic class

I took Dr. Kims Econ 1A (Fall 2020) and 1B (Winter 2021) online class and I didn't have assignments. Dr. Kim respects students very much. She sets all quizzes and discussions as extra credits. My difficulties were not from the course design, but the acceptance and mastery of new knowledge like all other new courses I took.

Grade is entirely based on 4 exams and final, all on quizlet. I only did 3 exams since the lowest gets dropped and final is optional. Literally spent like 3 hours on this class the entire semester lol

i love abortions

Easy class. All we had were just quizzes and four exams. And she drops the lowest exam score. Her final exam is optional. Take her!

If you're looking for an easy economics class, this is it.

Easy A class. Took her for ECON1A and currently taking her for ECON1B. Grade consists of quizzes and 4 exams, all multiple-choice. Take her for sure!

Fairly easily course. Took over summer and workload was minimal.

Super easy A class. Mostly just quizzes and 4 exams. unstuckstudy was a lifesaver for practice questions. Attendance mandatory but textbook optional.

Really easy class if you know what you're doing. I slacked off but had I tried, I'm sure I could have gotten an A. Her grading criteria is different from the norm; she only takes the top 3 tests, quizzes, and discussion boards. These points are totaled together and your grade is based off the amount of points you earned. Final was optional.
