Introduction
Perhaps you’re taking a statistics class, or you’re about to take one. You may understand some of the basic ideas, but you have questions and want a place to go for a little extra help to give you an edge. And you also want a heads-up as to what instructors really think about when they write their exams. Well, look no further; help has arrived in the form of Statistics Workbook For Dummies, 2nd Edition.
This workbook helps you become more comfortable with and confident about statistics. Through plenty of practical problems that take you from step one all the way to your final exam, you review the concepts you know, identify areas where you need to focus more work, and address the little things that can make the difference between a B and an A.
As a statistics professor who has taught tens of thousands of students over the years, I have noticed that certain problems keep cropping up and causing my pen to take points off exams over and over again. And believe me: I want nothing more than to put my red pen away. So I give you all my secrets about what professors really want you to know, the kinds of questions they ask, and the types of answers they love and hate to see (so you can avoid the latter). And I focus only on the topics that you absolutely need to know, with minimal background information.
