    I could not have imagined a five week stats course either. I am taking stats, latin, intro to soc, health interventions and health appraisal. I do not think I have ever been happier with a B when I tested out of health appraisal. Still, this summer quarter will be kicking my ass and stats is on top of the list lol
    BRAVE WOMAM!
    I tip my hat to you. Are you working and taking classes??

    Yes, Inimica18 is indeed a brave woman! I'm taking microbiology and Art 110 all quarter, and stats kicks in during July. The art and micro are proving to be very doable but I'm worrying about how I'll manage when stats kicks in. My plan is to get nearly all of my art assignments done this week so I can concentrate more on stats when it starts. Everything I've heard about stats is scaring me a bit. Thanks for the info about the books.

    Thanks guys, although sometimes I think its just bordering on stupid. I do work full-time nights in a PICU I can say I have been thankful for low census the last two weeks lol
    I just want to be done asap so I can focus on what kind of masters I want. I would like to get all my schooling done before I have kids and my biological clock is ticking lol

    How did everyone do on the first 2 assignments. I did OK, but it has taken me forever to get through Mod 3 assignment.
    I kept changing answers. I think I did it right and then recheck and come up with a different answer.
    I think the reason they use greek letters is because it's all 'greek to me',
    Tell me how I will ever use this stuff, I just can't imagine.

    I lost one point on assignment one and two on assignment two. I have not even looked at module 3 yet. I'm scared :/ I plan to do it on the weekend...

    Hey all. Does this class require the use of a scientific calculator? Or just a regular one? I think this point is the make or break for me on which stats class I take. Thanks!!

    I emailed Dr K and asked this same question, she told me that we didn't need a special calculator.

    You did better than me. I lost 3 points on the 1st and 2 on the second. Who knows about the 3rd. I am really busting my butt on this class. Yesterday I spent like 4 or 5 hours on it.
    I'm glad I decided not to take Family this month. I know it will put me behind, but I don't think I could have handled both courses.

    Did you guys see the note in the db about Q 13 for Mod 4 assignment? That was a tricky question. I'm glad Professor K gave us a hint. Pay attention to what the question is asking for.... median not mode. I would have gotten it wrong.

    Totally BOMBED assignment number three!! Such stupid calculation mistakes and I used decimals for the stem plot question instead of whole numbers so I got all of them wrong!!!! I am so mad at myself! Funnily enough I thought assignment 4 was harder but only missed three questions as opposed to 12 on assignment three. It sucks that it is answers only, because one wrong number and you are out...I hope others are doing better than me lol
