Amazing lectures!
This was one of my favorite classes in college! Professor Blitzstein does an amazing job explaining unintuitive concepts, and he is always really excited about the subject matter and makes the material fun.
For what you can learn from Stat 110, there is no better!
Professor Blitzstein is just the best at what he does - for the level of difficulty and complexity of the material, it's surprisingly well presented and easy to understand! Most professors of Blitzstein's caliber fail to adequately present and teach the material because so many of the concepts we find difficult are just trivial for them, but professor Blitzstein has a way with painting pictures and making stories that make even the toughest distributions, probability functions, theorems, etc. (including ways of solving notoriously difficult Putnam Competition questions) make so much sense! Job interviews - no problem anymore!
World's best introduction to statistics
Unabashedly. Learning probability and statistics are not an easy experience for most people. It wasn't for me either, and in fact I probably couldn't have learned it if it weren't for this course since I would have just given up with any other presentation. This course challenges you like any rigorous introduction should, but it does so in a way that makes the learning process joyful, with beautiful examples and problems that inspire you to not give up along a journey that can be fraught with dangers.
