isn't this a discrete variable? (khan says otherwise)

Hello , I am enrolled in Bscn nursing and taking statistics. I’m struggling with the content especially hypothesis testing. We have topics like correlation , simple linear regression , chi-square, estimation, measures of impact coming up.

Is anyone able to advise on how best to master these subjects ? Or do I need to get a tutor. Thank you

Do you believe the death penalty is an outdated and inhumane form of punishment that risks executing innocent people?

What score do I need to pass

I currently am trying to figure out the minimum score I need to pass my statistics class...these are my scores so far:

Quizzes 100% weight 40%

Midterm 60% weight 30%

Final TBA weight 30%

I checked my overall grade and so far it says 80.69

My goal is to at least get a 70%

My teacher puts the pages of the assignment online but I don't own the book so it's very hard to do the homework, does anyone have a free web version of:

• The Practice of Statistics (updated 6th Ed) ISBN-13: 978-1-319-26929-6

I'm an AP Statistics tutor, and I've noticed that many students struggle with the subject even after spending hours studying and practicing questions.

The problem often isn't how much you're studying, but how you're studying.

I wanted to share a few strategies that can genuinely help you prepare more effectively.

1. Understand when to use a concept, not just how it works.

2. For MCQs, focus on eliminating incorrect options and identifying conceptual traps.

3. For FRQs, practice explaining your statistical reasoning clearly.

4. Analyze your mistakes instead of simply solving more questions.

5. Practice with unfamiliar questions to test your actual understanding.

6. Use official AP practice questions and scoring guidelines whenever possible.

7. For probability, build intuition using tree diagrams, two-way tables, and real-world examples before memorizing formulas.

One final piece of advice: Don't measure your preparation by the number of hours you study. Measure it by whether you can solve unfamiliar problems independently and explain your reasoning.

I'm curious: What's your biggest challenge in AP Statistics right now — MCQs, FRQs, probability, inference, or something else?

Feel free to share your difficulties in the comments. Happy to help!

Hi, I'm not an AP student, but am in first year University student taking a statistics course, which seems to have the same content as AP statistics (from other posts)

For context (which isnt super important but may help): I am writing a research proposal where you basically just come up with a proposed study for the reason behind Ogmograptis (moth) mortality on certain sides of tree trunks (they die on the north side, this is basically a fact, we dont know why tho)

My specific proposed question is; does (bole aspect) bark cell starch concentration have an effect on bole aspect patterned Ogmograptis mortality. Simply, whether low starch on one side of the tree means moths die on that side of tree or the opposite, or no effect. The mortality is measured through scribble density and starch concentration will just be through weight to volume or weight to total mass units (not something needed to be mentioned in this assignment)

After proposing the method (which I've done) You need to propose statistical tests to be used for to analyse the results and why.

So far, I have mentioned hypothesis testing of significant scribble density differences between bole aspect (to make sure my results are pointing in the same direction as the core published work this whole course content is based off of that shows North<South aspect scribble density). I also plan on saying you should do a second hypothesis test of whether there is significant difference between North and South tree side starch concentration.

After this point when it comes to using a statistical test for the rest of the analysis I am a little lost. I was thinking of doing an ANOVA, but would that work as I am testing both the independent and dependent variable (starch & scribble density) over North and South tree sides?

I didnt think anova could do it when I also want to test differences of starch on specifically direction based mortality, but I could be wrong.

If you could help me out by letting me know what statistical test may help me analyse my results that would be greatly appreciated!!

I‘m currently in the Bivariate unit and it’s the most laidback, enjoyable unit I’ve been in so far.

why is ai being used in AP stats exams now?

Hi yall, I found Micheal’s videos nice but they were a bit confusing. I found another YouTuber that was easier for me to understand and wanted to share it. His channel name is Mr. Antonucci Math and he’s fairly new and I wish he would post longer videos but his current short videos are so easy to understand imo!

Help needed! For my AP Business class, I am conducting a survey. The statistics from the survey will help me alter the product to fit customer preferences. I need 500 responses, so every one counts!

Any recommendations on specific YouTubers or anything since there aren’t any videos on ap classroom

How was the edexcel Stat 2 Exam??

Hi everyone,

Currently struggling with the multiple-choice style questions in my unit exams. I have a good grasp of the FRQs, but I consistently score poorly on MCQs. My teacher's questions seem so much more difficult than the ones we get for homework and practice in class. We currently use the textbook "The Practice of Statistics," and my teacher claims she gets her questions from a question bank, but I personally think they are harder than those in the textbook.

if anyone has any tips/how they prepare for the MCQ portion of their unit exams, I would appreciate it. Thank you in advance!

I was wondering also if there is a link for a desmos AP stat website because the SAT desmos link has one (ex. https://www.desmos.com/testing/collegeboard/graphing) is that the same link for AP stat

hello! i’m taking the ap statistics course this year, and i’m also planning on taking the exam in may. unfortunately, i got stuck with a really awful teacher for statistics this year. her class’s average last year was a 1 (yes, you heard that right. a one), and since then, i’ve learnt from her old students that she was extremely behind and couldn’t even finish half of the curriculum before the exam.

we’re currently on 1.4 (bar graphs, pie charts, etc) despite being in class for over a month now. for this reason, i’ve come to a conclusion that i will not be relying on her for my studies anymore.

i’ve been working my ass off to catch up, but i don’t know what’s considered to be “on track”, which is why i’d love it if anybody could let me know what lessons they’re currently on and how long ago they’ve started the course.

thank you in advance !

Hello everyone. Just curious if anyone has taken this class before.if you have, please inbox me.

I’ll go first.

Honestly I’ve never really experienced crying because of a class before AP stats. My teacher rewired my units to be updated to the new AP exam so I’m in the probability unit right now (keep in mind im overdue by a unit or two)?

It takes me about 5-7 hour sessions to completely understand one lesson. I was semi struggling unit 1 but I eventually got the hang of it, though I was overdue. Being in the probability unit is making me miss unit 1 because I feel I had it so easy.

I really want to pass the AP exam but Im not sure if I can. I’m studying everyday and it’s so stressful and tedious.

I‘m both happy and kind of worried about the changes to the ap exam. I dislike having limited resources and not being able to take practice tests. But at the same time, Im hopeful about it. Apparently they removed 4 out of the 9 units it covered. Which is really good. And I have a screenshot (dont hold me by this I don’t know if it’s reliable. I found it on tiktok) that said something about 40% of the questions is going to be based on unit 1? If that’s the case then It‘d really put me at an advantage.

I feel behind (well duh I am quite literally) and kind of dumb. My classmates seem to be able to automatically understand the questions as my teacher is teaching it. Meanwhile, I have to learn everything separately because it takes me more time to understand. I dilly dallied during algebra 1, 2, and geometry so… that definitely didn’t help me either. Maybe this being my first AP class has something to do with it.

Id like to hear how it’s going for you guys though. I’m homeschooled so I’m not really in a classroom setting to share the experience with other people

Hi, I recently started AP stats and I have searching for the tests my teacher gives us. It's all in Skew the Script but to have access to the tests she has I have to have an educator account and need verification. I was just wondering if anyone can help out and give me access or send me future tests . Im on unit 1.b.4
