Apr 22, 2023 Should I skip STAT 231 if I took STAT 206? 8 points, 6 comments

u/ElectricBlueRam: “I've heard that 231 is a terrible course. Is it worth taking, or should I teach myself the material through course notes and just use 206 to get into the upper year courses?”

“For engineering students doing the AI option, we have to choose one of the following math or CS courses: CO 456 Introduction to Game Theory CO 463 Convex Optimization and Analysis CO 466 Continuous …”

u/harmonyIn3rdsNot4ths: “I have limited stats background (only took STAT 206) and am taking the AI Option too. I've done CO 456 and can definitely recommend the course. There was barely (if any) required stats background. …”

Nov 20, 2020 Can CS students take ECE courses to fufill breadth requirement? 3 points, 5 comments

“I wanna take ECE 358 - Computer Networks to fufill the 0.5 credit from a pure and applied science course. Does anyone know if this is possible?”

u/tendstofortytwo: “https://uwflow.com/course/ECE358 (ECE 222, ECE 203; Level at least 3B Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering) or (ECE 222, STAT 206; Level at least 3A Software Engineering) It would be pretty hard to meet these without being SE/ECE students. …”

u/danyal_ak: “Can CS students take courses taken by SE students? What courses are CS students not allowed to take that SE students are? Which would you personally pick if you got accepted to both? Thanks!”

u/aquaticpineapples: “There’s a small mistake there: stat206 maps to stat231 not stat230, so 231 should be highlighted in yellow instead”

“Do you like trains? Are you a NUMTOT? Are you interested in how transit systems work and are looking for a fun, easy-moderate difficultly elective taught by a really great prof? …”

u/VelocityGoose: “PLAN-100 isn’t a required pre-req, as it’s cross-listed with CIVE-484, which has a different set. You should say that you’ve taken a stats course (I assume you did STAT-206) beforehand (as that’s what the planning/civil pre-reqs essentially are) and bring an override form.”

Sep 1, 2019 Need survival tips for next term courses 4 points, 13 comments

u/Dahmoo: “… the courses that I am taking are: CS 240 CS 241 CS 246 MATH 239 SE 212 (basically CS 245) STAT 206 (basically STAT 230/231?) for people who have taken these courses, do you have any advice? things I should look out for? …”

u/UWSE2022: “… STAT206: Banerjee is one of my favourites. Attend your tutorials because he'll use them as lectures. There were a few optional problem sets. I think the midterm was hard and the final was easier? But the course overall is pretty chill. …”

Jun 2, 2019 Stat 206 vs 230/231 vs 240/241 5 points, 3 comments

u/DepressedUWApplicant: “I'm going into 2A SE and don't know which stat to take. I heard that 206 is a combination of 230/231 material and taking 206 would free up 1 more elective spot than doing 230/231, but then some 3rd year stat courses have 230/231 as prereqs. …”

u/-MrGoose-: “Courses mentioned in this thread: STAT240 STAT206 STAT230 STAT333”

u/I-Can-Explain: “If you do okay in STAT 206, you can easily override into the upper year stats courses. It still might be a good idea to do STAT 230/231 since 206 is really cramped and leaves a lot of gaps in your knowledge. Source: Currently taking STAT 333 while only having done STAT 206.”

Jul 27, 2018 Is it possible to take any advanced stat courses with STAT 206? 2 points, 2 comments

u/FrancisNarwhalBacon: “e.g. 231/241, 330/340, 441, etc.”

u/Narakrishna: “I don't think so, since STAT 206 is a mixed and accelerated course aimed at giving Engi students the most-needed stat info. If you want to take deeper courses I would suggest you go for 230/231's advanced courses.”
