Pay no attention to any of the poor rating of this Prof. She's actually one of the best people, and professors I've encountered throughout undergrad and grad school. Takes so much time to make sure her students actually understand concepts

Seriously, the best professor that I ever had for quantitative methods. she's a real gem of a person - actually cares about her students. Nothing at all like the usual stats profs! She's an amazing teacher.

Do yourself a favour and take any class taught by Prof. Tfaily. She is hands down the best professor I have ever had for statistics, and is so incredibly knowledgable. She genuinely wants students to do well, gives so much great feedback, and is generally one of the best people around. No one works as hard as her!! This woman deserves a raise!!!!!!

Comment:
Brutal experience. She teaches within her area, and thus has exactingly high standards. This is not a bad thing, but when these standards are unspecified, & there is no transparency in grading, then it's a VERY bad thing. The lectures are uninspired, enunciation is poor, her grading is obscure and captious. The worst course I've taken.

Comment:
One of the worst profs I have head. Reading's never match lectures and her marking is horribly inconsistent. If you don't participate enough, she will penalize you (even in your written assignments). Doesn't understand that not every student wants to vocalize their opinions every single class.

She was a good prof! Very nice but high participation expectations (30% of your grade). Fair marker and the assignments/midterm/exam were easy

Comment:
Shes a terrible professor, she gives unreasonable deadlines for assignments, is petty and rude if you ask her for an extension, does NOT take any proper breaks in her 3 HOUR lecture and is generally an un-organized professor. I'm surprised I even got through the semester without fighting with her. Not mention she doesn't even give reviews for exams

Comment:
Rania's lecture style and material was dry, boring and unclear. I felt like I was in a history class. I found Rania was not rational in her justifications and did not listen to you. I feel that Rania was not consistent in the marking across her TAs and herself and did not follow the rubric. The textbook was boring, however, was needed.

This prof is probably one of the most fair professors I have had. The course material is presented in an understandable manner and the class usually contains discussion despite most classmates not caring. If you are not willing to put in the work then you will not get an A, but if you work hard and seek feedback the A+ is possible. Not a bird cour

Comment:
Her lectures are terrible - you do not retain any usefull information. Her marking skills deferentiate between herself and her ta's. For example, a TA will give you 100% one week and then she will mark your next paper 50%. No accuracy.

The lectures sucked, they are super dry and you get marked for attendance. She is a horrible grader and gives bad feedback. Would not take this class if she is teaching it...

She's really nice but really confusing. She doesn't speak loud enough and she isn't organized. Readings don't match with lectures.

Rania taught me Stats, and i am not a huge fan of math. Maybe if i liked math i would have liked the class more. She was by no means horrible, but it wasnt fantastic, she was purely okay.
