Objectives
Preparation
A basic statistics class is a pre-requisite for this class. Ideally this was within the last 4-5 years, but I recognize not all learning paths are ideal. If you are rusty on descriptive statistics such as mean, median, skewness, standard deviation and variance, how to read boxplots, histograms and the IQR rule then I highly recommend that you review IMS Chapter 5.
The quiz for this topic includes topics that are not directly lectured on but are considered critical knowledge and are included in either PMA6 Ch 4 or IMS Ch 5.
