Comments:QBA2302 - I genuinely don't know how people are fooled into thinking this guy's a good professor. His slideshows are extremely fast and don't help at all, the weekly workload is insane, and all 3 exams are done before the end of March. None of my friends that took QBA2302 from other professors had these problems. Even after meeting with him in person several times, I didn't feel confident about any of the material he had given us to study. Attendance is obviously mandatory, but with how poorly he explains the material, and for how often he gets sidetracked, it really feels like it shouldn't be. A week before I dropped he mentioned that over half the class had dropped within a month, and it wasn't a difficult decision for me to make.  - Grade In Class:DROP

Comments:Business Data Analysis I - QBA Business stats 1 is definitely an interesting class. The weird thing about this class is that the information seems like it should be a lot easier to understand than it is. So you really have to work hard to understand the concepts and understand how to apply the formulas to what you're learning. That being said, this would be a pretty difficult class with a lot of people teaching it, but the GOAT Shaun Eide does everything in his power to help you succeed and get an A in his class. This guy gives you virtually every resource you need to succeed on tests and he structures the homework to help you understand the concepts, even though it might seem like he's just throwing a lot of work your way. Overall, the class is kind of annoying just because of how it is but Professor Eide makes it more enjoyable by bringing nonstop energy everyday to a pretty hard class to teach.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Prof Eide is so nice but god his class is so hard. You have absolutely NO TIME to take the quizzes and you’re rushing to complete it. Like when I say no time I mean literally no time. I have never failed a quiz till I got to this class, and I do all the optional HW and review all the notes and videos and PowerPoints. He makes it seem easier by saying it’s open note but in reality you don’t even have time to check your notes because it’s so fast. I wish it was easier because he is so nice. He drops 5 of the quizzes but u take 30 of them. The professors were mad his students were getting A’s so he made it harder. He legit said that in class. I aced AP stats in high school so honestly idk what to say.  - Grade In Class:C

Comments:QBA2302 - You are in a cold, dark room. The air is thick with the unmistakable scent of statistical despair. Welcome to Dr. Eide's statistics class, where the only thing multiplying faster than your workload is his collection of Hot Wheels. Dr. Eide, the maestro of statistical torture, has a peculiar proclivity for steering his lectures off-road. He solemnly warns against getting off topic, only to promptly veer into a detailed discussion about the latest paint job on his prized Hot Wheels truck. Yes, forget probability; the real gamble is whether you'll make it through another anecdote about miniature vehicles. In a desperate attempt to maintain some level of class attentiveness, Dr. Eide consistently asks for "questions, comments, or inappropriate remarks." The only inappropriate remark seems to be the absurd amount of homework he assigns while assuring everyone that he's "not trying to kill us." It's almost as believable as a Hot Wheels car winning a real-life drag race. But wait, there's more! Dr. Eide, the unsuspecting star of his own statistical reality show, has a YouTube channel named "Eide Analytics." Picture this: a techno intro theme song blaring as he attempts to teach analytics with all the charisma of a statistical DJ. Move over, TED Talks; there's a new analytics sensation in town. In yet another desperate attempt to maintain some semblance of order, Dr. Eide continuously asks the class "Y’all tracking?" Spoiler alert: No one is tracking. We're lost in the wilderness of his convoluted explanations and Hot Wheels metaphors. In summary, Dr. Eide's statistics class is like a carnival ride you never wanted to go on – filled with unexpected turns, questionable decisions, and an overwhelming desire to get off as soon as possible. Don’t worry, at the end of your exams when you realize there is no shot you are getting an A in the class, he will make sure to dap you up or give you a fist bump to make you feel better about your GPA being tanked. Just be prepared to laugh your way through the statistical equivalent of a circus gone wrong.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:The first QBA - Ngl I don't want to get too much into it because I will go on a neverending rant about this guy. But basically for the last 6 years his tests were open note open GOOGLE take home online. So I decided to take this class. However, he decided this year that since his coworkers got all salty that too many people got A's in his class, he would make it 10x harder this year. Not only are the tests not open note, they are in person. There is "optional" excel work to do, but if you don't do it you will be so confused. Oh, and also, a NINETY FOUR is an A. The first 3 tests were relatively based on the test, but the final was probably one of the worst things I've ever had to deal with, and on top of that we also had a problem. I like Dr. Eide overall, but this class is so hard for no reason now. If your group for the final project is bad, you are screwed. Dr. Eide cares about his students, but the material (especially the last unit) is hard and you have to teach urself with these long lecture videos he posts (and there are like 5 videos per topic). The Canvas page takes some time getting to Navigate. Also he has like 3 classes and always has "meetings" and so his office hours are basically nonexistent because he says it would be too overwhelming if he didn't do it on an appointment basis. Basically he just tells you to go watch his recorded videos if you don't understand. Which is honestly a fair point, because they are usually pretty helpful. The group work for the final project is kinda brutal. There are also like 170000 quizzes you have to do (like 50) so it does take a decent amount of time to do the work. Overall getting an A is super hard, but getting a B+ or A- is very attainable, if ur able to deal with the class just being annoying.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - The review below is 100% accurate and you should treat it like a syllabus for what you're getting into. But, this dude assigns so freakin much. I get done with a quiz that took half an hour, boom theres 4 more for every day of the week. Seriously, felt like this was my only class cause I was doing a quiz and an excel workbook and studying for the exams. I do have an A though, so it works i suppose, bud damn I am getting tired of the work after work. Seriously, the teacher is great, he loves his students, hes funny and relatable and not pushy or harsh, but he gives us an obscene amount of work to do compared to any other class I've had. Again, its not hard work, it just sucks.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Very interesting guy. Never seen a class organized like his. His entire Canvas page is his own custom ecosystem with everything broken up neatly into specific tabs. It is split into 4 units and the work is mostly based out of Microsoft Excel, but he handmade pretty much every slideshow, worksheet, and even Excel document down to the very data we were using. He assigned about 50 quizzes throughout the semester, which were either done in class or just due on a certain night, but he drops like 30 of them so that only your best 20 or so count. We didn’t technically have homework to submit, but you have to do the worksheets because they form the quizzes pretty much every time. The lectures are a bit scattered, as he couldn’t be any less structured with those if he tried. He bounces around between his slideshow, the worksheet, and 10 different Excel workbooks and if you miss a second of it, you can get pretty lost. Yet, he was really good about not quizzing on something that he didn’t get to in class and would usually record a Youtube video of himself working through a whole lesson or worksheet if he felt he went too fast. On that topic, he was generally very forgiving and understanding and would let his student form his policies. For example, he would let us pick when we wanted to come in for the test, he asked us if we wanted to move the final to an earlier date, and would even ask if we wanted to cancel class a lot of the time. For tests, they were also based out of Excel and were usually pretty easy if you did your homework and understood how to complete problems, but even if you didn’t, he would make these ridiculous formula sheets that had everything you would ever need on it. If that didn’t work, he would even allow you to write down whatever you wanted on 3 sheets of paper and use it. Overall, this class is pretty easy is you keep up and he’s a really nice guy who truly cares about his students more than maybe any teacher I’ve ever had.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Tests are pretty easy. Homework is open note open google. He also has us do like 36 quizzes but he only take the top 25, so you can flunk a few. I wish all classes were like this  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - You will learn more about stats in this class than any other class. It has the highest workload of stats classes, but it also has the best teacher. He is the most tech savvy teacher I have ever had. I never have canvas surprises or error with him. All of his notes, videos, and hw are super easy to locate. He lets you use notes and excel on tests, but there is a lot of hw.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Dr. Eide is an amazing professor! I really enjoyed his class, and I felt that the course itself wasn't very difficult. There are usually 2 quizzes a week, 4 exams, and a group presentation. The class is based mostly around working in the groups he assigns, and you spend a lot of time meeting with them outside of class. He does get off topic a lot, so sometimes it is good to redirect him back to the content, but he does a great job of making sure you are being attentive and making the class entertaining considering that the material can be boring at times. He cares a lot about making sure you succeed, and he can be very helpful if you meet with him during office hours. I definitely recommend taking his class, and relatively easy A if you pay attention and do all the work!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - This is the first time I have graded a professor because Eide is really a great professor, academically and otherwise. If you don't understand the class, don't worry, go watch his videos and you will understand everything and be able to do very well on his exams, because that's what I did. As a student of his, he would often go out of his way to encourage us and make us successful in the class. His class is very interesting, he loves his family, and he loves to talk to his students.You can really learn something in his class, please don't cheat because he is such a good professor and that's all he asks for. Trust me, if you take it seriously, you will be able to get great grades.如果你和我一样是中国学生,一定要选肖恩,他真的很棒!!他对中国学生非常友善!!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 1 - Professor Eide cares ALOT about your grade, and he will go out of his way to make sure each student is successful. He is a great dude, makes the class fun, but also assigns a lot of little work and quizzes that can be pretty annoying. regardless, TAKE HIM. He let us retake 2/4 of our exams, and that helped alot of people out with tons of extra credit and bonus points. I hate stats, and do not think I am good at them, yet I was able to succeed in this class pretty well.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2303 - Pretty unusual class but he really cares about you and has made the class as "simple" as possible (to him). The other professors are easier probably, but I don't regret taking him, I definitely learned alot here. What is annoying is the workload. you have about 2 quizzes a week, and you have to go to group meetings with a group he picks at the beginning of the semester. These meetings are hard to coordinate, and I've seen other groups get paired with people who just don't try, so it can screw with you. Overall though, I'd take him.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 1 - I got an A- in this and it was annoying. He is just kinda weird. His tests aren't hard but aren't easy at the same time. The annoying thing is that the group project will make or break you and my group sucked. So whatever.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Dr. Eide is one of the most accommodating, lenient professors I have ever seen. He really cares about his students and if the class performs poorly on something, he will give them opportunities to retake. (yes, even exams!) This class should be an easy A if you just do all the work and use the resources he gives you. You don't need the book, and honestly the best way to succeed in this course is to come to class. His lectures are pretty helpful and he often gives quiz answers. There are quizzes every week online, but they are open note. The other thing to consider with this class is there is a decent amount of group work with the same group all year, and you do not get to pick them. This has personally made me like this course less, but I know some people who have loved the groups and made great friends. Personally, I got stuck doing a lot of the group work, so if you hate group work definitely take that into consideration. His canvas page looks scarier than it actually is, Dr. Eide is a great professor!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is probably the most caring professor I have ever had a Baylor and truly will do whatever he can to help you succeed in his class. He is more than happy to answer your questions and gives you plenty of resources to guide you. n The only problem is he is not very good at actually teaching. You will probably have to teach yourself 80% of the material for this class but everything is open note so it is a good trade-off. Classes are extremely boring and don't seem super helpful but the class is relatively stress free since everything is open note.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2303 - Dr. Eide is without a doubt one of the most caring professors there is in the business school. He will do everything in his power to make sure you do well in his course. There's four exams which are all open note and a final project that you'll work in a group with. The homework is definitely manageable. He doesn't really use the textbook and usually used his own notes that he created for us to base lectures on. I 100% would recommend taking Dr. Eide.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - IF YOU WANT AN EASY A TAKE THIS CLASS! I cannot emphasize this enough, Professor Eide literally hands you an A. All of his exams are open notes, OPEN ONLINE besides Chegg obviously. The only downfall to this professor is the fact that he can't really teach hard units. It's obvious that he lacks a lot in teaching ability hence why he basically has to hand-feed you an A because he can't do it on his teaching ability alone. He's a cool guy and everything but if I'm being honest I almost learned nothing in this class and just knew where to plug what numbers were in the formulas that he gives us. Take this class as a GPA boost but don't expect to have learned much of anything at all when you're done.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - TAKE SHAUN EIDE'S CLASS!!!! QBA sucks horribly and i hate statistics with a passion and dr eide helped me throughout this class. The formatting is odd at first but once you get used to it, it is easier to manage. He is more than willing to meet with you to explain things. He wants you to get an A in his class and he shows it. you take over 30 quizzes throughout the semester and he only counts the top 10. He can get off track sometimes and is sporadic and full of energy but that just livens the class. he brings fun activities that actually help explain concepts. TAKE HIM  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - I made an account on here just to write this review. I was super desperate to make an A in this class, but around the last week, things kinda took a turn, and it became really hard to focus on my grade for this class. Eide was unbelievably accommodating, and without his help, I barely could've made a B. I cannot emphasize how willing he was to help me and how far he went out of his way to help me. He provides so many resources and really wants his students to do well, which can be hard to come by. You can tell it's important to him. This class in general can be super monotonous and boring, but he makes it fun and if you're not into stats (like me), he will make sure the data is something you'll actually care to learn about. Really cool guy.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Eide is the sweetest man ever. He really cares about his students. He's really smart and good at statistics, but because of that he teaches at a really high level. I'm in QBA 3305 right now and it's literally easier than his class. I knew nothing about statistics in the beginning of the class, and almost nothing at the end of the semester. I also took this class fully online though and think that was a huge problem. If you struggle with online courses, avoid this class!!! I think it would have been okay in person, but online it was just so complicated and there was so much busywork. 2-3 quizzes a week that are HARD...dont let the open note fool you on his exams & quizzes. They're still really hard. This class might've been okay in person, but was rough online. Or maybe if you already know everything about stats you could get through online. Also, plz don't cheat in this class, he will find out.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:2302 - This course was all online which was very hard and not the most organized. I really struggled in this class and spent a lot of money on a tutor just trying to get by.

Comments:2302 - Prof. Eide literally did everything possible to make sure everyone succeeded in his class. He is one of those caring teachers that sacrifices his leisure time for anyone that needs it. I was hesitant to take a tough course online, but Prof Eide made it bearable and I ended up with a good grade. I would recommend his course to anyone.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - While this class is usually very difficult Eide makes it possible to succeed. I took AP Stats in high school so I had an upper hand but this class is pretty much the same. There are four tests (no cumulative final) and 2-3 weekly quizzes ALL OPEN NOTE. Also, don’t cheat. Eide is nice enough to let you use pretty much any resource as long as you don’t communicate with others so don’t take advantage of this. There is also a group project at the end which is pretty manageable. While this class is a decent amount of work, Eide is straight up the best QBA professor you could ever have.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2303 - Professor Eide is one of THE BEST professors I've have at Baylor HANDS DOWN! I am usually one who has to study a lot and work hard to understand math, so I was kind of skeptical about taking it online. Professor Eide's online QBA course was so amazing and so helpful, it almost felt that I was in his in-person class. He is so caring and genuinely wants his students to succeed. He even has a group me message thread for all his classes which is also very helpful. I have never had another professor respond so quickly to emails and group me messages. Hands down the best professor! Wish I could take him for another class too! TAKE EIDE!!! YOU WONT REGRET IT  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide genuinely cares about both the material as well as his students. He is accessible and wants to help you understand the material. On top of that, he understands that life happens and sometimes requires accommodations. I ended up getting married during the semester. Professor Eide literally told me to take 5 days during the wedding week and only focus on enjoying myself. He allowed me the time I needed to catch back up, learn the material, and succeed in the class. I highly recommend taking him in order to set yourself up for success in the next QBA class.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - wow!!! He is the BEST! Professor Eide is truly one of the kindest professors I have ever met! While this class is definitely trippy just due to the nature of statistics, he works so incredibly hard to provide you with all the information you could possibly need! GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS! he will work his hardest to help you in every way he can! the only reason I got a B in this class is because I did not reach out to him sooner! He is so gracious and knows his class is trippy (especially with purely online learning) but does his best to help you understand and excel!

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is easily the most dedicated professor I have had at Baylor. He will truly go to every length to make sure not only that you are successful but also that you have a great time with the class. I took the course online and although sometimes online classes can be difficult to follow, Professor Eide is excellent at setting up problems to walk you through alongside his lectures. Also, he created many very helpful resources that consolidate the information and make it manageable to learn. I would definitely recommend taking Professor Eide online.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide's class was one I was very nervous to take. The prior ratings on this website claimed that you wouldn't learn anything and that his intelligence in the subject caused his course to be impossible, but they couldn’t have been more wrong. Professor Eide is one of the first professors I’ve had at Baylor so far that embodies integrity, enthusiasm, and flexibility. He truly cares about you learning the content more than a grade. While we still had 4 tests and about 2 quizzes each week, he provided us with the content and material to succeed if you just did the work. He provided several opportunities for extra credit and had retakes on every test that you could work on with your small group for a better grade. He goes the extra mile with each of his students even if that means a zoom call on his personal time to make you feel more comfortable with the content. While others have said that they didn’t learn anything in the class, they must have not done the bare minimum to understand. If you watch the videos and do the worksheets, the information should stick with you as it all builds off of each other. Cheating in his class is pointless and not needed if you do the work leading up to the quizzes/tests. Yes, he can catch you regardless of how you do it, he deals with data and statistics for a living!! But like any class in general you are only cheating yourself and not setting yourself up right for the second QBA course. You are allowed to use your notes, calculator, textbook, and google, just not other people or their work. Professor Eide is a professor I would recommend over and over again and I wish he was teaching the 2nd course of QBA.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Taking Eide's course online during COVID was very nice because he spent more time per day than there actually was making sure there were ample resources for us to be able to use and had many ways of communication to make sure that we could get our questions answered. QBA can be a tough course, but he would have anywhere between 4 to 12 videos a week that you could watch to learn the course material as well as worksheets to work on to be able to succeed. He also held zoom meetings where you could meet up to ask questions and in person meetings if that is what you prefer. Although his tests do not use lockdown browser to monitor you, he will be able to find out if you're cheating with someone else. He lets you use your notes, google, calculators, and excel on his exams so you have no reason to cheat. Take this class!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - I recommend taking the course taught by Edie. Because he gave you almost everything, it can be said to push you forward. If you carefully check each of his videos on YouTube, you will learn everything quickly. And Edie is also very concerned about international students. As an international student, I feel the warmth and kindness of the teacher. If you have any problems, please go to the office hour! I suffered some pressure this semester and the office hour helped me very effectively. All in all, choose him!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Take Eide at all costs. He is the absolute best professor I have ever had at Baylor because he cares about his students and he will do anything to help you succeed. His class is very challenging and time consuming, but I learned a lot from taking his class. It was completely online, and we had one Zoom meeting a week. He made class GroupMe's that were so helpful and encouraged open communication. He is easily approachable and does his best to be available 24/7. The tests were online and open notes. They were definitely hard, but nothing on the tests was ever a surprise. There were 2 quizzes a week, homework sheets, and Excel sheets to work on that weren't ever turned in but helped so much on the tests and quizzes. Lots of the quizzes were the exact same or similar questions as the homework, so if you do that, the quizzes are easy. You use a lot of Excel in this class, so be familiar with it. Overall, Eide is an amazing professor.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Before taking this course I was honestly scared about QBA. But I am SO glad I had QBA with professor Eide. He is the nicest and most caring man I have ever met. He truly wants every single one of his students to succeed. He explains the material extremely well, and is always available for office hours. He adapted his entire class to online because of COVID and he did an excellent job. You need to take professor Eide for QBA 2302. Seriously trust me.  - Grade In Class:A

He is a great teacher that knows what he is talking about and cares a lot about his students. Even though I had him online, his course was really easy to go through, due to his great organization. Take Eide, not because it's an easy class, but because you will learn an applicable skill in the best way.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - I took this class during COVID-19 and it was 100% online. He's a great professor, and he will always help you when he's available. He also gives out 5 extra credits to students that work hard in his class. His class is hard, but he gave us every opportunity to pass his class. HE IS ABLE TO CATCH YOU CHEATING. So, don't cheat. He has simple rules for his tests and just follow that rule and you will be okay. One thing is that sometimes you will absolutely not understand a word he's saying and it's okay because that's normal. He's a great professor but you won't most likely learn anything from his class. You just Pass or Fail and that's it. I do recommend his class because my experience with him was great.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2302 - I was in Professor Eide's class Spring 2020 which was half in person and half online. Had the class been fully in person, there would have been no problems. He is the sweetest man who truly cares about each student. He told us several times that he wants us to make an A in his class, and it is definitely possible to. You will have to work to get it, but it is easily attainable if you put in effort. He offered extra credit through Data Camp that could raise your grade by one letter if you did all of it. What we learned on there was supplemental to what we learned in class and will be helpful in the future. In this class, you have a homework assignment from the textbook and a quiz each week. The quiz is online and is usually asking the same questions as the homework, so it is really easy. We had 4 tests this semester because he split the last one up, but most semesters he has 3. They are online open note and open to use Google. Using Google doesn't help though because he makes the questions himself. The tests are pretty easy if you pay attention at all in class and make a decent effort to understand the material. The material is not very challenging! On top of that, you have a project with each unit that was a little hard, but if you ask for help, you will receive it and better understand what you are doing. He also changed the project this semester, so I don't know if he is planning on leaving it that way. With each part of the project, he makes a YouTube video to follow along with which is super helpful. Professor Eide is always available to meet outside of class and makes sure all of your questions get answered. If you have any problems in this class at all, just go talk to him and he is always happy to help. He set up a GroupMe to make it easy to ask questions and communicate which was super helpful. Overall, I thought this was a great class and due to the extra credit, I was never worried about not receiving an A. You will have to work, but he is such a sweet man, and I would totally recommend trying to get into his class if you can!! You will not regret it!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Shaun Eide changed his course format this Spring 2020 semester. It is true that his class used to be better in the past but that is not the case anymore. Eide is an incredibly nice person. However he is probably one of the worst professors I have ever had. He is very very smart and I feel as if that impedes on his teaching abilities. He tries very hard to make things clear and simple but in doing so he over complicates everything, whether that be Canvas organization or in his teaching itself. I legitimately have not learned a single thing in this class and am completely unprepared for QBA 3302. The workload is quite easy and it’s very easy to pass the class and even get an A, but you will most likely be confused and have no idea what if happening the entire semester.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:QBA 1 - Complaints that students did not learn anything is a reflection on the students, not on Eide, I PROMISE. I am going into my senior year, and currently going back and writing reviews on the teachers that stood out to me the most. Eide is top three. Hands down the nicest professor you will ever encounter. He's not just nice, however. Yes, his course is on the easier side. If you want an easy A and an enjoyable class, then he's your guy. If you actually want to learn, however, he is also your guy. Nearly every class I stayed a few minutes late and asked him more in-depth questions. Many times, even as recently as this year (I took his class two years ago) I have popped into his office and asked him practical and real-world questions. He has answered every single one to an impressive degree. He will make time for your, even if it is his personal time. He has spent more time actually applying statistics in the real world, and if you care about truly learning, this is invaluable. Eide cares about you as a student and as a person, he is extremely friendly and caring, and you will be able to learn as much as you could possibly hope to learn if you take the initiative.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - You all are clowns, I have never met a professor at baylor who is more passionate about their class or caring towards their students! Eide offers various opportunities for extra credit. He teaches all of the material in class, it just depends whether or not you decide to pay attention or participate to be able to learn the material. The homework is very simple and easy if you pay attention in class. The quizzes are based off of the homework and you have an opportunity to retake the quiz if you do poorly to earn a 70. The tests are all online and require thought and actual work like all tests do, but they are easy if you actually work in the class and pay attention. The projects are sometimes difficult but this sweet man helps out as much as he can. He is literally my favorite professor and I have never had an issue with this man. He is the BEST and if you had an issue with him its probably because he caught you cheating or you don't try in the class.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide is one of the best professors I have had at Baylor so far. He has kept the class engaged and fun but we still learn a lot and also provides amazing and helpful resources if you don’t understand what we learn in class. Any help you need, he is there and wants you to succeed. Such a great professor and I thoroughly enjoy my class and look forward to showing up to it each day. PLEASE TAKE HIM he is the best! You just have to try to engage in any way and it will make the biggest difference. Sweetest and funniest professor so far  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - this dude cannot teach for his life. he tries so hard to organize his class that everything is in such a specific folder or place on canvas that it is impossible to find what you need. he also does not seem to understand the fact that his students don't understand a single thing he is saying. Eide is a very sweet guy but he is a horrible teacher. I havent learned a single thing the entire semester.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is AMAZING! I have never seen a professor work so hard for his students. There was a glitch with the Stats software at the beginning of the semester and he worked so hard to redo the course so we wouldn't have to use the software that didn't work. He literally created calculators in excel from scratch for everything for the rest of the semester. A little crazy at times, and some of the calculators had errors, but overall great experience. It was a great class. I can only image how amazing it would have been if he didn't have to redo the whole course after the first 4 weeks due to the MegaStat Fail.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide is possibly the worst teacher you could possibly take if you actually want to learn anything about statistics. His lectures are very unorganized and very difficult to follow. The grades are not terrible in this class, although I think it is difficult to make an A because it is so easy to get discouraged and bored. Although there are not a lot of great options for QBA, I would not recommend Eide.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide does an excellent job making himself available and responding to your emails quickly. He’ll even make a GroupMe to let the students ask anything between him or the other classmates. However, in terms of teaching ability, Eide is severely lacking. Lectures were often useless. There were at least 5 times where he printed out handouts for us, only to discover (in the middle of class) that something was incorrect on the paper and he had to re-do it. He’s a very unorganized, inefficient teacher. If you take Eide, you’ll have the ability of earning an easy A while hindering your ability to learn basic statistics. His assignments and projects are scattered, and I found the class to be a huge, unproductive mess.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2302 - Want an EASY A??? Take him. Want to leave the class actually knowing statistics? Do NOT take him. nuff said.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Eide is a wonderful man and you can tell he cares deeply about his students. However, he is one of the most scatterbrained and unorganized teachers I've ever had. He wants you to succeed as a student but he doesn't understand how to teach the concepts in a way that you can understand. All tests and quizzes are online, but the grade book was always so confusing that I never knew actual my grade. If you are looking for an easy A, Eide is not the best choice. Stats is confusing, and even more so when you have a teacher who doesn't teach it well.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide is a great professor and probably the best professor that you can take for QBA. His class consists of online weekly/bi-weekly quizzes, online take home exams, and a final project (this is the first semester he did a final project rather than a final exam). Eide truly wants to see you succeed and will do anything and everything in his power to make sure you do so. He is extremely generous and offers many bonus points to help raise your grade while at the same time making sure you understand the material. My only complaint for the course would be his grade scale because his grades are extremely unorganized and it is hard to calculate what grade you have in the class. If you can, take Professor Eide because he is by far the best QBA professor on campus.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is a stud. Sometimes he gets distracted in class but that was fun for me. Everything is online which was nice, and we had a final project instead of the final exam. The final project was a doozie, but he stayed up countless nights making videos explaining exactly what to do, he gave us a step by step to-do list, he put data in all of our tables and spent hours upon hours answering questions. HE WANTS YOU TO SUCCEED. Great guy, take him!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - If you choose NOT to take Eide, then you are WRONG. He may just be the best professor I have ever had. He wants you to succeed and it shows. Always there and willing to help if you need it. Wonderful person.11/10  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide is a really good teacher. He is extremely helpful and very passionate about his students succeeding. He gives us a ton of time to meet up with him if he has any questions and is such a dork that he makes the class fun. I only got a B because statistics is hard and I struggle to understand it as it is, but if I didn't have this teacher I probably could've failed the class. There are some extra credit opportunities and his last two tests were online, open-book and open-note. He gives reviews for every test that are literal variations of the questions you will be doing in the exam so they are very helpful. All of the homework isn't a required grade but they are there because the weekly quizzes are based on them. If you do the homework, you will make a 100 on the quizzes which is an easy grade boost. Take Eide you won't regret it!  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is awesome. This class is extremely fun and you are still learning important concepts about Quantitative Data Analytics. Getting a good grade is not hard at all if you do the homework, read the textbook, take class notes, and ask questions. He is available all the time and ready to answer your questions when you go to his office hour. He is super cool and makes balloon animals for us in class. He also gives you extra points here and there if you participate in specific assignments. He also creates fun assignments like the March Madness where student would earn extra credits by engaging in class competition. He cares a lot about his students and make us feel like a family. Overall, take Eide if you want to learn a ton and have fun.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - TAKE SHAUN EIDE. NO QUESTION. This class is very well structured. Eide has an insane amount of experience in just about everything and genuinely wants all of his students to succeed. Class is ALWAYS interesting. He makes balloon animals, makes funny jokes, and does a good job of keeping his students happy. The tests are fairly simple. They're all multiple choice and not tricky. Read the chapters and pay attention in class and you'll be solid. The final was basically the review packet. Not a ton of homework, but it helps to do it because the quizzes come from that.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Good professor, teaches well. First part of the class is literally stupid easy. Study though, and build yourself a good cushion for the last 1/4 of the class though. It went from 0-60 in about one day. He wants you to do well though, and is fun in class. Take this guy if you get a chance. Gave me a nice "surprise" A- though, so that wasn't too cash money, but whatever.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA - Professor Eide is soooooo nice and works so hard to help his students understand the material. He will print out all kinds of review materials and study guides. He makes it very clear what will be on the tests, and it's really easy to do well. He also has unit projects which are pretty much a completion grade, and they count for a higher percentage of your grade than the tests. Mr. Eide is also super fun and upbeat in class, and he loves to joke around. His teaching style is engaging, but sometimes the material is just learned best when your practice it on your own. He is more than willing to meet with you if you need help, and he posts videos of the lectures online in case you miss class or need to review a certain topic. Easy A for sure, as long as you stay on top of things!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Nicest teacher at Baylor. Show effort and he will not let you fail. His teaching style is getting better, I had him his very first semester he taught this class so he had a lot of kinks to work out. Very understanding with late work. Take him.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:2304 - Wow, awesome professor and person. Loves his students and will do so much to make sure they know what they're doing. If you are struggling, go to his office hours, they are so helpful and he is a very personable professor. Fun class, take him!!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Professor Eide is a really great guy. He's super helpful and really cares about his students. The course load is pretty easy. He gives you homework problems for each unit and would have a quiz over the homework once a week, which you grade in class (he also drops your lowest quiz grade). He assigned unit projects which are pretty much completion grades. His tests are not super difficult if you study for them. The only drawback about this class would be that I didn't really learn a whole lot. Although he tries his best, Eide is still trying to figure out how to teach a QBA class, and more often than not confuses the class more than teaches them. I would recommend taking Eide if you are not planning on majoring in stats, but if you are, you're probably better off taking another professor who knows the best way to teach this material.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:QBA 2302 - Professor Eide is new to teaching QBA so some of the material was sort of confusing but overall it was a pretty easy class. He is such a sweet professor and he really wants his students to be successful. He is always available for office hours and he is even more helpful when you go to his office hours. He provides videos for every lecture and he posts his power points online which is really helpful. Class is easy if you do the work. He is definitely the nicest professor I have had at Baylor.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - Overall a great course, with a few minor growing pains from his first semester teaching at Baylor. He is super intelligent and loves his students well. His slightly quirky humor makes the class fun and interesting. On the course side, the material and testing isn't too bad, however, I didn't feel I learned too much in the class period, and learned most of the material on my own. I think slight improvements to the way the class period is conducted could change this from a really good class to a great one.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - The man is so nice, but he honestly doesn't know how to convey the material to the class well. He only reads off of his slides which is not helpful for math at all. The first two tests were easy because they were more definitional, but make sure to keep up with the math, you may have to teach yourself it for the last 2 tests.  - Grade In Class:B

Date: 2018-11-12

Comments:2302 - He's really cool! Class is essentially an easy A. Can be a bit scattered at times but he's brand new at teaching this class so that could be due to growing pains more than anything. Had a weekly quiz which would be based off homework problems, generally not hard, drops a couple. A couple of projects over a unit which were pretty easy as well. Tests were fine if you really looked over the material. Allowed you to bring a notecard to the test with notes on it. He's extremely energetic and cares about this subject and his students. Made class interesting and fun......Definitely take him  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:2302 - TAKE HIM IF YOU WANT AN EASY A!!!! he is so much fun and energetic. I had him a for my 9 A.M. and he keeps me awake. his tests require a little bit of studying but if you review you will be fine. There is homework for each unit but its pretty easy and there is a unit project for each unit. Also the homework is exactly what the quizzes are over each week.  - Grade In Class:A
