CourseQUANT 30
4.0 attainableYes

I had Sir Abad for Quant 30, and our grades were composed of the following: Course Project (40%), which included the final paper, final presentation, and the initial requirements (topic proposal and survey creation, both of which you'll consult with Sir); Three Written Exams (45%) (15% each); Quizzes (10%); and Class Participation (5%). He teaches well naman. At least in my experience, I was able to understand his lessons since I already had a background in Statistics and Probability from senior high school. But personally, I'd say he's an A with effort because you can't really bola your way through statistics and probability. Also, try to recite more in his class. During the last few days of the semester, we had a short quiz where we graded our own class participation, and Sir was the one who decided whether we actually deserved the score we gave to ourselves. Additionally, the exams were taken onsite but through Canvas, so make sure to bring your own laptop. For the course project, make sure you really know your topic so there are no holes in both your presentation and paper. Sir is very particular when it comes to your methodology, results, and even the recommendations you include, so expect him to ask questions and scrutinize your work. Personally, I found Sir very nice and accommodating. He can seem intimidating at first (he kinda looks like a bald owl 😭), but he teaches in a way that's very digestible and easy to understand. And if you're not the best at listening during lectures, at least for Sir Abad's class, I found his materials pretty easy to self-study. For reference, I got a **B+** (very close to an A). I honestly slacked off a bit during the first part of the semester, but I self-studied most of the course and still ended up getting high grades overall.more

HE’S GENUINELY THE GOAT!!! Had him for intersession & he gave almost all the answers we needed for our final paper lol. His consultations is just him doing everything for u (his rationale is that ayaw niya mag-back & forth so instead of constantly giving corrections & feedbacks, he’ll just do it for u). He grades rlly high too as long as u follow his format on how to answer his essays. His tests r usually objective + applications, & they’re very easy imo, esp since the essays r based on what he alr taught u. He is also a vvv practical person so he won’t expect u to memorize the formula & just tell u to be familiar on the process of how to get what he’s asking for (ur allowed to use excel/gsheets) + he allowed us to use a “cheat sheet” as long as we write the steps & excel formulas on index. Expect also that most of ur classes will be asynch & he’ll just provide u w comprehensive online lectures (which r rlly helpful). Note tho that sir is rlly a yapper so he’ll be repetitive & discuss things that may or may not be related to the discussion. For his personality, he’s lowk an idgafer HAHAHA he’s really nice and approachable tho so don’t be afraid to ask him if u have questions. Overall, he’s vvv A-able with minimal effort (iirc almost everyone in our class got a B+ to an A)more

Challenging LTs; consultations decide the survey

positive

In terms of requirements, he has 3 long tests and I personally found them challenging. For the final requirement, which is a survey worth 40% of the grade afaik, it's manageable. Consultations are super important, because he is very specific with what he wants and it really impacts the final grade Lectures-wise, he teaches statistical concepts well, but I would have wanted to see a more detailed explanation or a thought process on how he reached his managerial insights (application of statistics). His long tests includes an essay section on this, and I would have wanted to see a framework or perhaps a standard guide on how to create managerial insights, since it takes up a lot of questions in his LTs (3 LTs = 45% of Grade afaik) He has sessional quizzes which are doable. For someone with average knowledge of statistics he is A-able with effort, just don't cram his LTs. His lessons are harder towards the end of the sem, so be sure to study for itmore
