Took her for SPSS. If you get above a 70% in the class you dont have to take the final. Recommended.

She's not that hard,she even says she's easier now, but keep all your work after she returns it

This class is a joke if you know anything about computers and statistics. I recommend taking a stats course before taking this. Melody doesn't help you unless you ask her. She's not as bad as some of these posts. All you need is a 70% people, come on.

This class is ALOT of work for a 1 unit class. But she is very straight forward on what she expects from students. She does teach fast but if you review the material before the class it helps. Take good notes, go to class, and read the book. If you get to know her, write her emails if you need help, it could help on your final project and grade.

I actually really liked this teacher. She tells you exactly what's expected of you and what's on the tests. You definately DO need to study and do the work or else you will not pass the class, but if you do the work that she assigns, this class is an easy A.

This class is so easy! We only had to come to class every other week. Tests and quizzes are open book. Just practice the exercises at your own pace in the lab and this course is cake!

Great Fair Professor. If you are having any problems, she is more than willing to work with you. Just show up and make sure you have studied for the quizes. If you need help, don't hesitate to ask. She is great and only wants you to do well.

kinda hard class, but she is pretty helpful and keeps the class at a steady pace so you finish almost a month before finals...just put in an hour a week and the quizzes will come very easy.

take this professor.she has changed her class. in spring 2005 people complained about her giving too much work.Fall 2005, only had quizes, midterm, final; all open book. Totally easy, if you have taken econ 301 or any stat's class.she goes over the matieral in class before the quiz. really short class.

The class was a cake walk. You just have quizzes, a midterm, and a final - doesn't require much stuDYING at all. Personally, I found her witty and if you ask her for help, she'll be glad to accomodate you. She even reviews before the quiz. I'm glad she changed her syllabus. Short class sessions, too!

alot of work for a 1 unit class...but simple easy material. The tests and final are open book, but you better know your stuff and practice the program in the library if you want a decent grade. I think she is funny in her own eclectic way. Not an easy A, or B.

NT AN EASY CLASS. HAVE TO BUY BOOK OR WILL NOT PASS. LOOK AT ALL THE EXAMPLES IN THE BOOK AND FOLLOW STEP BY STEP TO PASS. SHE IS NICE AND HELPFUL THOUGH. GOOD LUCK!

Totally easy class if you listen to the very brief lectures she gives and read the book she wrote... duh! I could be wrong but I think she drinks before teaching class cuz she talks about alcohol alot. Comes off as a **** cuz she pretty much is one but easy class.

one of the easiest class i ever took. she has a nice body and she is very cool and any student that cant pass this class (like the one below) should consider other options, maybe tijuana gum seller.

Get the book and really use it and study it before and during the tests. You will need it! Easy class, and she is helpful. Easy B,C need to work for an A

She is a great teacher. Always willing to help as long as you show up and are interested. Not an easy class, however, it is possible to do well. Get the book and practice the examples. Most important, ask for help if you need it and act interested.

This is basically a self taught course. She will help you if you ask for it. The textbook has easy to follow instructions that show you step by step what to do AND you get to use it on almost all of the tests (including the midterm and final). Come 1 hour before class and do the assignments (which are not collected) for practice and you'll do fine.

Easy class. She puts up practice tests/quizes on blackboard that are very similar to the real tests/quizes. The book basically gives you the answers and all tests and quizes are open book!

She's cool she wrote her own book, just go to the library and do the work on the off weeks and you can ace the course!

Class was ok.I could have done better if I studied.I got a C and blame it on myself.She was a great teacher.Office hours work and SO DOES E.CREDIT!! a 68.5% is C...I got a 69.5% HA!! I barely made it and would never NOT study for math again.THE BOOK IS IDENTICAL TO THE QUIZZES AND TESTS! ALL OPEN BOOK!!!! buy book-read it-get at least a B =)

just follow the book and what it says-go 2 class 2 take the tests and pay attention if she says something.its not hard @ all, really. u'll have 2 study by doing the assignments for about 2 hrs a week in between the weeks u actually have to show up. so u should just complete the homework a day or 2 before the next class. i got an A not easy tho..

EASY CLASS. Anyone who says otherwise is too lazy to look at the book which tells you exactly what to do step by step and is looking to get spoon-fed everything (which she does anyways!) She's not a bad teacher at all.

the final is nothing like any of the other tests taken. she has no interst in what she is teaching and often times just runs though material to get to the test at the end of class so she can go do whatever she does. the class is real easy until the final, do the extra credit IT HELPS

Easy class, only have class once a week. Attendance is mandatory, and be very careful with your HW, because EVERY POINTS counts. Get the book, is cheap, and much better than lectures. She didn't offer EC like some of the earlier reviews, so I got a B.

Easy course if you read the text. It provides you with step by step instructions on how to solve the problems. Every point counts. no curve. straight up points. She always seems stressed, but helpful if you get her one on one. Easy A if you read the text and follow the instructions! Take her!

This class is useless if you're an econ major. You learn how to use one computer program the whole time. The teacher knows this, and shows no interest, in fact she usually comes like 10 minutes late and leaves 10 minutes early. Easy class just read the handbook, follow the step by step instructions, come to class once a week and get your A

Such an easy class! She's a very chill teacher. My class met once a week and the class was scheduled for 2hrs 40 min but I never stayed over an hour. She uses a textbook from the book store and a course reader you can only buy at kb books.

I got a B in this class after failing my first stats class. She is very clear. Her quizzes and hmk come striaght from the book and or course reader word for word. She is willing to explain any questions and is approachable. Do well on the quizzes and you should be ok with the exams. SPSS isn't a must to buy since they have it in the library fr free

Best Stats professor. You can use cheat sheets & class is straight forward. 4 quizes 1 final + weekly hws. Take her once a week, you leave early always. Got an A

She deserves a higher grade on here. She is very nice and actually know what is talking about. Just read her course reader and you'll get an A on everything. Plus you get to use a cheat sheet. Sometimes lectures may seem confusing but that is because people don't read.

Professor Hallett is a nice person, the class is meh. You must buy her course reader, it's very in depth and much more helpful then she actually is. Put the steps on the cheat sheet that are in the CR and you'll do great. There are HW assignments every class, 4 quizzes and a final.

CHEAT SHEETS FOR EVERY TEST! She wasn't a bad teacher , just very boring. I dreaded this class every session. The material is kind of hard and I don't like how she does the participation, quizzes and tests online/on the computer. Overall, if you study, make good cheat sheets, and pay attention you'll do fine

Class is not too bad, just boring. You get cheat sheets for every quiz (more like tests), there are 4 and a cumulative final. She is an eh person, kind of rude sometimes. Do well on the homework assignments and participation and you're fine.

Professor Hallett was great! Most of my class completely bombed the 2nd test and she gave a retake opportunity! she also gave us A LOT of extra credit opportunities. yes there is lots of homework, however its very helpful for the tests and your grade. I highly suggest this class, it won't be a piece of cake but its definitely doable if you study!

Lays out clear requirements from the students. You will have to make your own notes from the class. Lecture slides are of little help. Group assignments. Great course content!

Daily class work worth points (also her attendance) and a few "labs" outside of class that is just homework. Only need the course reader textbook, we NEVER used the straightforward statistics textbook. You can use a cheat cheat on the final BUT the final is worth 50% of your grade. But all you need on final is basically just the SPSS instructions

Not a bad teacher. Don't listen to the other reviews. Just do the work with a friend, read the course reader it's a big help! The final is 50% of the grade but you get a SG/Mockfinal/and a 8x11 cheat sheet. She sometimes gives EC. Just put in the effort trust me, don't copy the work with a friend actually try to understand it and you will do fine

She's really not that bad. If you go to class and make sure you get a study buddy or get in a group you are good. You have to focus and take good notes during class because there is only one test and it's the final worth 50% of your grade. Overall I only had the class once a week and it was really nice. If you're willing to go to class its worth it

Prof Hallett was a very easy stats teacher this semester. Although I struggled in her class in the beginning of the semester, it got easier and I am now able to pass with a great grade. Although she requires SPSS (its free), the problems on the test/hw is exactly the same steps as she shows you during lecture & final is optional this semester!

Professor Hallett was a bit disorganized, but overall a good instructor. She requires two different textbooks, one of which she wrote herself which is REALLY helpful when it comes to using SPSS. If you don't want to get the other textbook, AT LEAST get hers. It will save your life. Attendance is not mandatory but I definitely recommend it.

Hallet's lectures made difficult stat concepts easy. As long as you watch her lectures and read the book she wrote, you can get an A. Some concepts are harder than others but you can always go to her zoom meetings and ask any questions. Definitely the best class to take for math requirement.

The final was bonus. I put in very little effort into this class and managed to get a B. If you go to class and actually learn how to do the math then you will get an A. Professor seems nice enough.

This class was tricky and the professor only based grades on homework and a final exam. HW could be completed in groups, and the exam to be completed online. The professor was more than fair and made herself available to support students. The concepts were somewhat difficult, but it was manageable if you took good notes and followed the steps.
