Past student reviews · Karl Rohe

Karl Rohe’s homework was due weekly, long, and unrelated to lectures, while exam questions were vague.

What you’ll be able to do

  • Correctly choose and apply common regression methods that are used in practice to analyze data, including simple and multiple linear regressions, ANOVAs/ANCOVAs, generalized linear models (e.g. logistic and Poisson) and fixed/random/mixed effect models

  • Identify the underlying assumptions behind common regression methods and utilize diagnostic tools to detect violations of said assumptions

  • Correctly interpret and explain results from regression methods, including interpretation of the coefficients, the p-values, R-squared, and other statistical summaries from regression

  • Apply these methods to real data using the free statistical software R

About this comparison

1280 courses over the same term, each with at least 30 recorded letter grades. Cross-listed courses count once. GPA is not a measure of difficulty or teaching quality. The typical course is the median by recorded grade count; tied values are not counted as lower. Grade counts describe course scale, not unique students or typical section size.

Descriptions compare GPA with this group’s average: at least 0.20 higher or lower; otherwise close to average. Section size uses median recorded enrollment: small up to 30, mid-sized 31–99, large 100+. Lectures and discussion/lab sections are described separately.
