Statistics-Help

[Sammy]

Chris,

You bet I will give some insites into the exam prep necessary (legitimate of course). I found out the my TI-55 calculator is considered programmable, though I don't know if it is considered that by the Dantes testing facility I'm going to. I will bring it incase I can use it. I found out that the most common non-programmable that colleges recommend is the TI-30Xa. I'm going to buy one tomorrow and learn its statistical functions, which i am sure are about the same as my 1984 model TI-55III. It really is a super time saver with calculations though I will try to memorize all necessary equations. The test site said I can use a scientific calculator that is not programmable. I will bring 3 calculators with me of different levels and use the highest one that they will let me use. I'll bring the calculator regulations requirement sheets, that I printed up from two college sites on the net, along with me incase I need to prove the calculator's non-programmable.

BTW. I've looked up every recommendation I can find. People say Instantcert and Idiots guide to stats is more than enough. I found the Idiots guide to be way better than stats for dummies.
