He is the sweetest professor and just wants his students to succeed. His lectures are really boring at times but probably because it is stats. There weekly quizzes but they're so easy and online hw/exams. Most of the quizzes are about SPSS which sucks but he takes the time to help you learn and practice how to use it.

Zaman is a great professor who really cares about his students! I had his class MWF and he cancelled class most Fridays. We had 3 quizzes, our research project, and a couple of in class activities. He didn't give any exams. I heard terrible things about this class and it ended up being really chill with Zaman.

Dr. Zaman is great! English is not his first language, so he can be difficult to understand sometimes. However he really cares about his students. He took time to learn everyones name which meant a lot in a big lecture. If you struggle with statistics he might not be the professor for you since there is a language barrier.

He is so caring and funny. He loves his job and clearly wants his students to succeed. There was one exam the week before finals that was 8 questions and open notes. Other than that class assignments that you could redo to get the desired grade you wanted. Definitely take him.

Dr. Zaman is the best! He's a very down to earth professor and he is passionate about what he teaches. He truly wants all his students to do well. There were quizzes each week and a few homeworks throughout the semester but they were fairly easy. There is 1 exam -- the final, and it is open note. HIGHLY recommend taking him!!

He is very friendly and remembers every student's name. I wanted to take HTH408, but it was filled up instantly, so you have to be lucky and timely to get into his class!

There is a midterm and a final project as your final exam. I learned a lot through our research and studying for the weekly quizzes. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
