If you came to college to get good grades and learn absolutely nothing, this is your man. Showed up for class once every couple weeks to take the quizzes and walked out with a 100. Hands down best professor at NUMATH4862 2015-04-16 12:32:57 +0000 UTC
Imagine the worst teacher possible, then make that about a thousand times worse. He has absolutely no interest in teaching and is the most apathetic person I've ever met. He doesn't even pretend to care about teaching. It really got to the point where it was humorous. That said, ridiculously easy grader.MATH4683 2011-11-08 00:51:05 +0000 UTC
Very great teacher and a very easy grader :)PROB420 2011-07-02 16:21:00 +0000 UTC
DO NOT EVER TAKE A CLASS WITH HIM. He is THE LAZIEST PROFESSOR I know. Everything he uses is Professor King's, the syllabus, textbook, assignments, quizzes, midterm, and solutions. I don't even think he knows the material himself. Class consists of him READING THE TEXTBOOK TO US or some student working out problems on the board. HE IS REALLY RUDE.MTH682 2008-06-04 12:24:08 +0000 UTC
The class is ridiculously easy, but the teacher does absolutely nothing. It's almost a guaranteed A if you do the work. He is not clear and his responses to questions never answer the questions. If you have the option don't take him.MTHU280 2007-12-12 19:01:08 +0000 UTC
OMG please don't take this class unless you speak whatever language he speaks. He means well, I guess, but it does not matter. If you are thinking of taking it, don't. If you are in it, switch... trust meSTATSU280 2007-11-08 13:08:55 +0000 UTC
Prof. Malioutov means well, but he has a difficult time explaining things. There was a quiz every day on the material from that day, which did nothing to help you learn it. The exams were pretty ridiculous, and he doesn't scale like he says he's going to.MTHU581 2006-08-09 14:18:18 +0000 UTC
Probability and Statistics was almost impossible to get a good grade. Unclear teaching and hard to understand.MTHU481 2006-05-07 11:38:50 +0000 UTC
The worst Professor i have ever had in 4 years of college.PROBSTAT 2006-02-06 18:49:25 +0000 UTC
Not clear, but basically allows you to create your own grade as he hands out the grade sheet and lets you change what you want. had no interest in teaching us anything and gave up on us in the second half of the semester. good luck...INTROSTAT 2006-01-10 15:55:59 +0000 UTC

just terrible.STOCHASTICS 2005-08-31 15:35:38 +0000 UTC
This professor really means well, but he can't speak english and he can't teach as a result. He should be limited to research for the good of the students. Learn the material on your own, and you should be ok.ANYCLASS 2005-02-09 12:28:44 +0000 UTC
probabilty and statistics. VERY hard to understand. skips lots of steps. take it with gutman or king, for your own good!MTHU481 2003-12-12 15:22:36 +0000 UTC
his calc class was ok. prob and stats was horrific. dont take it ever. painfully unclear and it will bring down your grade.PROBSTAT 2005-11-30 18:06:02 +0000 UTC
