Hi all, Just wanted to give my tips on passing the WGU statistics class. I just passed my OA, and I started the class last wk. I previously attempted Stats when I attended UTA online but got a D. I have one more task to revise in Biochem, and that will be my 3rd completed class in 3 wks. The way I studied for Stats is as follows:
-Watched all the videos to the modules
-did Acrobatiq checkpoints, which are very similar to the exam
-Printed out and did all of the worksheet problems, which the mentor recommended when I
reached out to her asking for study tips
- know the 5 number spread, standard deviation rule, how to calculate IQR, The different
Sample methods, also know Quantitative vs Categorical variables
- Quizlet also has flashcards and quizzes, but honestly I think the videos and acrobatiq checkpoints prepared me the most.
Hope this helps....

I purchased a stats for dummies book and it really seems overwhelming, even the vocabulary and definitions for statistics. I am brilliant at writing, science, and reading but this statistics thing has me really worried. Any tips on where I could find an actual book for this bec1 course? I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
I found that the videos and acrobatiq checkpoints prepared me for the OA. Don't buy any other books... they have worksheets u can complete as well, and i feel they were helpful. Good luck!
