Excellent course setting. If you like biosta, I strongly recommend you to take this course. Most of the content is about stata, and the tutorial can help you complete your assignment better!
Taught very clearly and the assignments were clear and straightforward.
Taught very similarly to biostats, although a bit harder. Pracs were extremely helpful and assignments were very reasonable to do.
If you liked Biostats you will probably like Regression Methods. The course material is straight forward and well explained. Enes was the GOAT, but I don't know what the new lecturer is like this year.
