Sat Principles of Statistics today

[fondue]

Since I won't get my score for a few weeks I figured I'd better dump my thoughts now. WHAT A BEAR! There were 97 questions organized to give you confidence with a few easy ones then slap you around with a string huge calculation. At three hours this was the longest exam I've taken too date.

Much of the subject matter is included in IC, however I would suggest finding more examples calculating y-intercept, all of the errors, correlation and regression. I felt confident at the 70 mark, but was hit with 10 calculation in a row that left me wondering if I know anything. I even begain questioning whether to use standard deviation for the population or sample. Basically practice, practice, practice using your calculator.

One thing to note, the testing center didn't look at my calculator, which left me wishing I would've bought a better model that would do regression and everything else.

I'll let you know the outcome when it arrives, good luck to those that follow.
