The professor added R coding to the virtual class (because of COVID) and it was really helpful for actually applying the skills you learn. Professor really wants to see you succeed and it is not hard to get an A if you do the work. Overall, this course taught me some common methods (regression, parametric and non-parametic methods) used in Biostatistics many of which I previously learned in previous courses, so overall it was not a hard class. However if this is your first exposure to coding in R you may have some extra learning to do.
