To be fair, I didn't work as hard as I should have and so didn't get the mark I wanted. Still, I found that the course could ramp in difficulty really quickly, and the majority of the class stayed for the full time allowed on both midterms (and that's writing as fast as possible).

Sohail was a great professor and made the practice questions very similar to exam questions. He was very funny in class and made it entertaining- I looked forward to attending his lectures. If you apply yourself enough this is a very easy course taken with Sohail.

He will ask questions in class and put you on the spot. You must attend lectures and take notes in order to pass. Sometimes moves to fast but usually provides clear instruction in lectures. His class can feel uncomfortable as he will call you out and it is sometimes uncalled for.

I wanna start this off by saying, Professor Sohail Khan knows his field extremely well - He just doesn't know how to TEACH IT. I took this course first year in person, and have had to retake it twice since. He is unhelpful and does not care about anyone's circumstances. Please, avoid this professor if you can. I am now taking the course at UofM.

Professor Khan was great! I'm not good at math by any means, but he made this so much more bearable. He does call on random students for answers, but isn't mean if you get it wrong. I found it helpful because the fear of being called on made me try harder and pay attention. He does not tolerate phone usage or chatting and will call students out!

Overall great Professor. Had him for first year stats and I could not have asked for a better professor to introduce me to statistics. He tells amazing and hilarious stories in lecture that make materials easy to remember. Overall great professor that provides plenty of help before exams and tons of practice materials.

I have never wanted to drop a class so bad until this class. Do not take this class unless you want to waste your time.

I thought he was caring and funny at first but when I unexpectedly got a bad grade on my midterm he promised to help me but never ended up giving me the time of day. Instead he judged me harshly saying "how did you mess up a two way table" and called the markers too generous despite being literally the only one in his class who showed him kindness.

One of the best profs in this uni, he genuinely cares if we understood the material and he will definitely call you out. A lot of ppl find him intimidating but he does that to ensure we understood the material. I would take this course again as he does examples in class which are on the mid terms/exams, and I would definitely take his class again.

honestly, as long as you go to lectures you'll do well. he goes slowly and explains everything clearly, and gives lots of examples. funny guy, cares a lot about his classes and his students and it shows.

Make sure you print all his notes and practice questions if you want to study the day of exams- he TAKES THEM DOWN so you can't study… he is also not educated at all and will not help at all and will just say “ you should know this already” rather than helping. very disrespectful and implies you are not smart for a wrong answer.
