Really easy A. The only thing I knew was how to find the mean. He basically gives you the tests beforehand and lets you bring cheat sheets. All you gotta do and write down the question and the work and adjust accordingly because he changes some numbers. He's really boring and not really clear, but he tries to help as much as possible. Nice guy.
A great Profeesor, extremely knowledgeable and fun.
One of the coolest professors at Baruch! Good teacher and easy going and tells you everything you need to know about an exam and you have a chance to prepare and Do well. Definitely recomend him! He's a Cool dude
Prof. Sabban taught this class as if we had taken an intro to statistics before this course. The first two classes I was motivated to learn and asked questions, but instead of receiving a clarification, I got an attitude. Aren't you supposed to ask when you don't understand?
Basic things you need to know how to do good in his class is mystatlab website is your friend. He will need you to do homework, midterm, and final on it. Homework can do as many time as you want until you get the grade you want. Midterm and Final, he allow 1 cheat sheet, just write small and fit everything in there. The website is your best friend!
He is a very knowledgable professor with a great sense of humor. If you have any questions, he is willing to meet you at his office.
this guy is an easy A, he give you a practice exam before your final exam, while the practice exam is the same as the final exam, just different data. And he gave us a party after the mid term, go for him, he is a cool guy too
Take him if you want an easy A. He gives practice midterm and final. The questions are exactly the same, just different numbers. He also gives you a chance to earn extra credits. He's a very nice prof who likes to help his students get good grades.
fair grader...laid back class, easy going/understanding prof. Class is decent but not an easy A, maybe easy B, but I can't lie though, an A is attainable if you understand the material. couple of easy hws done on mystatlab, 1 midterm that's REALLY easy because it's from the hws (make sure you do well on this) because final is departmental.
he is ok, not enough time for the midterm. Most got 70-80%not because the don't know the staff, but because it was not enough time. It's too much things to calculate in every problem and figure it out (since its intro to sta)definitely has to give more time
You will hardly get any professor like him in Baruch. In order to do well you have to attend class, can skip three home-works. To get full credit 70% of homeworks has to be correct. One midterm 25%, hw25%, attendance 10% and 40% final. Everything comes from the practice test on the midterm. Final is departmental. Cares about students. Take him.
He is an easy going professor who does his best to help you but he does not prepare you for the final, so be warned. I got a 90 on his midterm and then did terribly on the final and ended up getting a C+. The midterm is worth 40% and is incredibly hard so keep that in mind.
He is very easy going, lenient grader, cares abt students and stay after class if u have any question. Midterm comes from the practice test that he gives.Try to do well in this bcoz final is departmental. Explains the material very well so make sure u attend all the class. Take him. U'll not regret. U'll hardly get any prof. like him in Baruch.
He's one of the best professor in Baruch. Extremely helpful and give you chance to retake your mid term if you do Bad.Do Your Home work problems. There's a Practice test which is copy paste in Mid term exam question.I wish we have some MORE Professor like him in Baruch.
Not going to lie, but this class ruined my GPA. Went from a high 3.8 to a 3.7. Doesn't sound like a big difference, but the B- switched everything up. Get a 100 on the midterm and split up the material from day 1. This class is very important and the final is departmental. You must ace all percentages that do not include the final. Work carefully!
Easy material and he doesn't make it any harder than that. Notes are very thorough, well-organized, and helpful. If you can take him, then take him. As far as professors go, you can do much better than him.
Professor was extremely helpful. Gives you chance to retake midterm and posts solution sets to hws! Beyond considerate, I retook the midterm and ended with an b+
At first i thought he was extremely arrogant but then i understand why, you will learn a lot in his class, super clear , just follow instructions and be on top of homework and practice exams if you want a good grade. He responds email always, super helpful. Im just very happy to know that there is someone that still care about students.
This class was challenging for me but I am happy I took course with Professor Sabban. From what I've heard he's actually one of the easier Stats professors at Baruch. He tells you what problems to study for midterm and final and lets you make your own formula sheet. Also gives you opportunity to retake midterm. I put in the work and got an A.
This professor is extremely nice and helpful. He posts the notes online and is willing to help you outside of class. Two exams and some online homework. Take him!
Hands down the best professor at Baruch College. I absolutely recommend him.. All my friends hated stats but he makes you love this class
Besides the fact that he is a great teacher, he is flexible and clear about his grading system and requirements day 1. Listen carefully, do your homework and you might get a A.n
great professor!!!!! I wish all professors like him!
Took this class a few semesters back. He explained everything crystal clear and very willing to answer questions. Even though it is a statistics class on Saturday, I can pay attention to it 90% of the time just because his lecture was so clear.
ridiculous grading policy set by the department so only the top 33% get A's. even if you have an A average, you might end up with a b. he gives you the questions beforehand so everyone does well on the midterm and final, so you never know if you'll become one of the unlucky ones stuck with a b. he has an attitude. but at least the exams are easy
The professor is amazing. He genuinely cares for his students to do well. He gives you all the possible questions that may be asked on the exams - study them well in and out. You must be able to do them quickly in order to pass the exams. His notes are very clear and he will answer any questions you have at the end of class. Easy A if you work. GL
Love Pearl Jam and regression models at 9am? This is your man.
God of stat
worth the Sunday class.
Love his class. He's really clear in his lectures. He will try his best to help you. Have to do stat lab, but not bad at all! Study hard for the midterm and final.
THE BEST STAT PROFESSOR IN BARUCH. HE KNOWS the material and is very clear give you a chance to take midterm over if you fail. gives answers to the hom work. tells you exactly whats going to be on the exams. gives extra credit for attendance and copying the class notes. Istat is hard and I still don't get it, but I still mmAged to pass. TAKE HIM!
Best Stat professor in Baruch make sure you go over the homeworks exactly like his tests gives extra credit take him
TAKE HIM!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best from the best. Don' think even
Sometimes he's not clear when he teaches, but if you do the homework you'll do fine. He has a review session before test which are optional. Going to them help if you don't understand homework questions. You can always ask him questions during office hours or after class. Offers extra credit and is generous with it.
really bad professor with really bad handwriting with really bad teaching skills
He is really good, Class is boring, stats are boring, but he helps u if you ask for it. Midterm and final are very hard, but doable. Nice professor, stats is just a boring class
was very rude to the class a few times. he is an ok professor and his teaching skills aren't that great. he posts class notes and solutions for the homework but his handwriting is so bad u cant read any of it. Hes very lazy and inconsiderate to students. We had to apply what we learned in class to solve homework problems on mymathlab. Boring class
class was boring. gives solutions to hw and tests are based of the practice test. lets u bring cheat sheet for test. stickler for attendance. posts lecture notes online but so hard to read chicken scratch. cursed out the class. okay class, but prof was rude
Hardddddd as hell! Took this class and studied so much and got A but it was hard work
Lectures do not matter. You're more graded on how much you practice. For those who say the class was hard, it's unfair to blame him because you didn't practice enough. The solutions are all posted online and he even gives you ALL the midterm and final questions well in advance and gives you a lot of extra credit. What you put in is what you get.
Easy A for me. Know how to the practice midterm and final and you'll be solid for the midterm and final itself. Homework you just need a passing grade for full credit. Otherwise you're good for the class. Teacher is good in teaching the material since he shows you all the Excel tricks. Know them and you'll be solid. Work a bit and easy A
Took his class on Sunday from 9-12. The class is not that hard, 10 homeworks throughout the semester, a midterm, a final and 3 pop quizzes. You only need to pass 2 pop quizzes out of the 3 to get full credit for them. Gives a practice midterm & final well beforehand. As long as you put in a bit of effort and do the practice exams, you are fine.
Awesome professor, explains everything and works well with the class. One of the few that cares.
He, himself, not a bad person at all. As far as being a professor? He stumbles over his words and seems to be mentally disorganized, which can make the material difficult to process. However, he does clarify when asked. He does care. Do the work and you'll do well. He can be a bit blunt sometimes, but people need to stop being so sensitive.
There is something wrong with his teaching approach, going either too fast or too Slow. He skipped some questions on the quiz that we are about to take next week! Fortunately my friend reminded him about it. He likes to joke around a lot and I find it quite distracting while I try to concentrate, but the worse part is that they aren't even funny.
Not the greatest professor, but he knows his stuff. The problem is that he can't translate statistics into plain english or it makes sense. 1 midterm, 1 final plus hws and quizzes. One thing I will agree on, is that you must know how to use excel (advanced) to do the problems and he wasn't kidding.
Very straight forward as to what he expects. Very lenient with the course and allows you to make mistakes along the way and still get a very good grade. Just do the homework and try to speak in class and you'll have a very easy time.
The material can get confusing and he tries his best to make it simple. Take him! Just do statslab hw and do the quizzes every class and youll be fine. I did terrible on both final and midterm which were 60% of my grade yet I got a b- he definitely curved. He gives extra credit questions in class that he adds to your final grade. Take him!!
Prof. Sabban's lecture is very straight forward, clear explained. He made the complicated concept easy to be understood. Go the class and remember to do the online practice questions, u will get good grade.
Professor Sabban is a great professor! The class is not easy, but he makes it very understandable. He helps every single student to pass the class, he gave a chance to retake a midterm twice!He gives quizzes every class , lots of homework. The best thing about him, he lets to bring A4 size paper with anything on it !!! To both midterm and final
EZ class, do the hw and quiz you will be fine. also the midterm and final are easy, he will let you bring the cheat sheet and he tell you the exactly question on the midterm and final .TAKE HIM !
Even though he teaches on sunday morning like 9 am but it's worth it to take his class. He gave pass/fail quizzes every week. Attendance taken from quizzes. 1 Midterm and 1 final. Take him.
Very clear and precise in his teachings. Both midterm and final are based on practice exams, just values changed. All homework, practice test, test are on pearson. Take him. p/s has some nice spotify playlist too!
Since moving online, Professor Sabban has been the most unproblematic and understanding professor I've had. He makes learning online not as tedious and helps you learn what you need to learn. Never any issues in reaching him and always provides useful resources to study from. Definitely worth taking the class - even if it is on a Sunday at 9AM
The class was very straightforward and he made it much easier than what other profs would do. There are the weekly hw assignments, midterm, and final which are all on pearson. He derives his test questions from the practice tests and tells you exactly what kind of questions will be on the test. In addition, he even shows you exactly how to do them.
Great professor take him!! HW assignments on Pearson. A midterm and final exam. Gives a review for each exam that is very helpful to prepare for the exam. Nice and kind professor. Easy A.
Easy and straightforward class! Homework, midterm, and final are worth 1/3 each. The professor tells you what kinds of questions are on the exams and prepares you for it. He also teaches you how to solve these questions using excel. This class is probably easier than other stat classes. Nice Professor!
Prof. Sabban is always prepared for class and takes the time to explain if you do not understand the workings. He values his students input and maintains an environment that fosters learning. He prepares you for his exams, pay attention and you WILL pass. The Homeworks on StatsLab are quite simple.
I think prof Sabban really cares about his students. We have mylab hw due every week. He sometimes extends the due date for us. His 3 hr lectures tend to be a little much fore me but he records it and he really tries to explains the materials as thoroughly as he can so that we can understand it.
This professor is very caring when it comes to the homework/midterms/final. He extends the homework for an extra week! How can you go wrong with that? 3 hour lectures may be a bit long but his class is interesting and explains a lot of the material. Great Professor, deserves a raise
Fair grading criteria, tries to make the class as reasonable as possible, as he listens to student requests and uploads the lecture recordings and notes. Would recommend.
Prof Sabban is an absolute gem, I dont care the class was 9am on a Sunday. Explained the material very well, not that much work, and very easy A if you pay attention. Take him regardless of time, Ive heard of how many friends did terrible w other professors.
Get the textbook and use the Excel Guide Workbooks if you want to understand more. He cares about students and classes are helpful. Unfair that we had class once a week... so it was a lot of material to cover. Weekly homeworks aren't insanely hard (if you use the excel templates). Long midterm and final, but practice test are INSANELY helpful.
out of all the statistics professor I'm so glad I registered for his. TRUST ME AND TAKE HIS CLASS even if its a 3 hour class. he makes life so easy by letting us use excel and showing us the formulas, and the practice test mimic exams so its extremely helpful. he does give weekly hw but he does it with us. also he's actually funny.
Professor is GREAT and laidback. However, topics would be harder as it goes on. 1 midterm and final. It's in-person, but test are online in the computer lab. Can use cheat sheet, but also midterm and final questions are similar to practice questions that he assigns. Would recommend taking this professor with the knowledge and understanding
Professor is so chill and genuinely teaches this course well. Tests are super easy, he walks you through the homework and always explains if you have questions. Would 100% recommend.
Easygoing and best professor for statistics.Shows you all the formulas you need to solve the homeworks.Recommend to study the midterm and final from mylab
Professor is caring, does a lot to help students and understands us well. Gave us a curve when we bombed the final. Final is worth a large percentage so if you do bad like a lot of us, your grade will be damaged hard. GhatGPT DOES NOT WORK, I repeat, DOES NOT WORK.
I would be able understand Statistics II if havent had Professor Sabban. He has a genuine passion for what he teaches, one of the rare professors out there!
Professor Sabban was the best prof I've had in zicklin!! Stats is a very difficult class but he made it very fair by teaching us a lot of the stuff through excel. He allowed us to use cheat sheets for the midterm and the final. Even though the class was on a sunday morning, it was so worth it! and saved my gpa. Also very understanding.
If you want to pass with a good grade and understanding, do not even consider not taking him. The class was early Sunday, be on time, but it was worth it.
Professor Sabban is one of the greatest professors I've taken so far. Lectures are not that hard if you pay attention and review them once per week. He will also go over the homework questions in class to make sure you understand the topics and concepts.
I know it's a Sunday course, but trust me, he's one of the best professors I had. He made the course so much easier, and he's also a funny guy. I would recommend him if you want to do well in STA200 and if you don't mind the course is on a Sunday.
MIDTERMS AND FINAL ONLINE, CLASS ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. ALL HOMEWORK IS ON PEARSON. take this class
Easy class and homework! the midterm was online and very similar to the practice midterm SUPER EASY! The hardest assignment in this class would be the FINAL EXAM! otherwise, he's a chill guy.
great proff, the dpt final was way harder than dpt. midterm, tanked my grade but the proff himself is an amazing teacher, super easy to understand and straight to the point, super nice and understanding, straightforward grading policy, highly recc!
Prof Sabban was amazing! I truly feel the only reason I did so well in this course was because he was the professor. He allowed us to use a cheat sheet for the midterm and the final. He also explained everything so well! My peers in other stats classes weren't doing so well but honestly for a sunday morning class, it is worth it!
Good Professor! All assignments are online. I did great on hw/quizzed & midterm but I totally failed the Finial Exam. It was on me I didn't go to classes in person, but he did record his lectures! And he would open up late hw if you emailed him. Helpful, I would take him again.
Never read the textbook, show up to class and take notes. His practice midterm was the same as the actual, just different numbers. Know how to use excel and you will do great on the exam. Practice final was made by the dept which was only 70% similar to the actual. I'm glad I sacrificed my Sunday for an amazing professor.
Never write reviews - but Proffesor Sabban truly cares. Go the lectures, take notes, pay attention. If you don't mind a sunday class, he is the guy. Midterms same as real midterm, different numbers. Willing to speak after class. Overall, chill dude and a great lecturer. All online tests and hws!~
had a A in the class,curved me down to a B plus just because I wasn't in the top 33% of the class.apparently the department told him to do that.he was very unprofesssional with the final as we didn't know whether or not it would be taken in person or online until day before.everything is online. best advice is to ai cheat better than ur classmates
He teaches well, he gives a practice test for each exam *the actual exam is the same as the practice but with different numbers + cheat sheet But almost all of us are getting B's no matter what due to the department apparently *he said smth like 3 people are getting A's and the rest B's
had an A- in the class and then I was curved down to a B+.
he only gives A to top 33 percent and the curve down is insane. I would not take him for easy A, the other comments prove that it was easier now its a competition of only certain kids getting As. I don't even think he gives 33 percent As. And exam was in person then second was online then final was lockdown with only stat crunch not worth my Sunday
