Professor Roca is great!!! He is really helpful and he makes Stats really easy to understand. Highly recommended!
STATS248
Stats is really difficult, yet Roca makes it as clear as possible. He explains things really well, so much so that you really don't even need the book. Roca is also HILARIOUS - glad I had him for stats. HW from each chapter is assigned, there are 4 tests (counts for most of grade), and 3 lab assignments. Lab att. is mand. but not lecture att.

i love his class and the way he teaches, its an intensive course, but he help. You need to be in class to understand it and you need to pay attention. He lets you decide your grade and is very understandable. love him!
STAT248
Easiest class ever. I never used the book except for copying down hw problems. No attendance. The exams are open note/book. He gives you the practice exam beforehand that looks like the exam itself. The only math you need is algebra. I don't understand why anyone would receive below an A in this class.

Roca is wonderful!! I love him and his class. He has his own style of teaching but his methods Leads you to understand better. Study his review exams that are almost the same as the real tests. Don't miss class and you'll be fine. He doesnt mind explaining a thousand times until his students understand. Excellent!! Take him

Roca is a Great professor,highly recommend him. To get an A all you have to do is not miss a class, take good notes, & most importantly study from the practice test because his exams are very, extremely similar....Really easy to pass if you put your effort!

Inexperienced and it shows. Very unorganized, and confuses many people. People can end up scoring pretty low on his tests, and the tests are way too long. Doesn't seem like he cares about students struggles and is too busy with his own life. Strict on deadlines, but can take forever to get your work back. Gives homework to hand in the day of test.

Young, inexperienced. Does not apear that he puts much time into his teaching plan. He teaches with little direction and clarity on why we are learning what we are learning. He is not available out side of class. Unsure if he really wants to be teaching or if he is just fufiling his PHD rec.

Roca is adorable. He really explains stats well and is really understanding. Hes a new prof so his tests are like tests for himself too. Lots of work though. HWs. Need textbook. 4 exams with lots of material covered. Attendance is not mandatory but you wont want to miss a class becaus a lot of info will be lost!
PSYCH248
knowledgeable and energetic. made statistics understandable to a girl who's former math mantra was 'it's just not my thing'. got an A. show up to class, do your homework, and you'll be fine. easy on the eyes.
Psy248
The class involves much understanding in the way of the concepts, and the math calculations that come with it. Attendance is not mandatory but is highly, highly helpful for exams. Miss one class, and you're screwing yourself. What it comes down to it is that note-taking in his lectures and labs is YOUR RESPONSIBILTY. Don't rely on anyone else.
P054
Explain very very clear on the materials. Exams are ok, but just be careful with time b/c calculation is long. Four exams (three non-cumulative, cumulative final), drop the lowest. Final is even optional. Class notes are more important, if understand, don't need to read book, book is just for hw assign. interesting prof. take it.
Psy248
The only reason I was in this class so often is because I was madly in love with him. Until he announced he had a gf and that he was younger than I. Not an easy class, but what else do you want from psych. stat.? If you study and submit HW you will be fine.He is extremely helpful, dorky funny at times,nice and accessible.Steamin' hot and eye candy.
