I have to take it and I HATE HATE HATE algebra. Does this mean I will fail Stats?
If I hate and am not very good at alegebra, is it a lost cause? I'd hate to think that this ONE class will stand in my way of applying to the Nursing school I really want to get into, (which unfortunately requires a general STATS class.) But I can't even remember what is involved in statistics. The last time I dealt with it was 10 years ago in undergrad when I was in a PSYCH class.
I'm taking my class online right now. Actually, the professor allowed me into the class 4 weeks into the semester because I need it as a pre-requisite for a program I'm applying to. I'm only in week 3 of the coursework, so I'm sure it's going to get more difficult. It's been pretty easy so far, though. Then again, I like math :)
In my humble opinion, stat is really practice, practice, and practice. The more you do math, the easier it gets because you stop analyzing the problem and start doing it. Also, take full advantage of your school's math tutoring lab!
