I can relate I have to retake microbiology. But I guess it could be a lot worse;) I am not thrilled about statistics I am hoping someone who is currently in the program can give us a heads up about how the course is if it's all math or what. I read on some earlier posts that it's a lot of definitions and such?! Hope that's true.

I'll be starting soon! No set date yet. One user gave his advice for the Stats course: watch pre-recorded lectures, do course modules (score at least 80%), do worksheets and watch master videos. He also said the Acrobatiq checkpoints, knowing the 5 number spread, standard deviation rule, IQR, sample methods, and quantitative vs. categorical were helpful. Although, there are users here who did not watch any videos for any courses and suggest just using the directions from Taskstream.
