The big question is - did you pass??? How do you feel now about the exam? I am about to dive into studying but still a bit on the fence choosing between Algebra and Statistics. Math is not my strong point! This is my last class to graduate in time to start grad school in August. I want to choose an area where I can succeed on the first attempt. Thanks!! I hope you passed.
Hi camillumi,
I posted my results on another thread. The good news is that I passed with a score of 71. This should give EVERYONE hope since I am a complete and total math-phobic.
My assessment of the exam still stands. It IS a hard exam, my hardest so far! I literally cried as I was taking it (math-phobia). But it is not really about math. Study hard, learn the CONCEPTS, learn how to use your calculator's Stats functions, stay calm, take your time, and do your best! I took care of knowing the concepts...my calculator took care of the math!
You will likely feel like crap after the exam. But the fact that I got a 71 on it tells me that the curve works heavily in our favor on this exam.
Study HARD, look up any concepts you don't understand. LEARN TO USE YOUR CALCULATOR!
This exam is horrible....HORRIBLE! But you CAN do well on it, and will probably do MUCH BETTER than you expect.
Don't be afraid,
Snazzlefrag
My name is Rob
