Back to the grind...
Alright, here we go 3rd quarter....
Your homework is as follows: read chapter 16, and complete the AP problem distributed in class--you can also find this with our classroom powerpoints entitled, "Juana and Carroll."
Good luck! The AP problem is your first grade of the quarter so do a good job! And then, do an even better job (if possible) on Monday's reading quiz!

Want to get ahead in stats?
First off, period G, you better study. It's not an easy exam.
If you want to get ahead, when we get back we'll start talking about expected value and variance, and your homework on the first day back will be to read chapter 16.
So, if you want to get your homework done ahead of time, read chapter 16!

REVIEW PROBLEM SOLUTIONS POSTED
After the worst shoveling experience of my life, I warmed up with a Vanilla Chai and some Stat problems...you can find the solutions to your homework with all the powerpoints titled, "*****Midterm Prob/LinReg Review Solutions*****.
Check the post below for a breakdown of the exam.
You have all the resources you need. I know it stinks we didn't get more time to review in class-we'll do plenty of that for the AP exam. As for midterms, you're on your own to study--step your game up!

Pressure's on...exams start tomorrow
Well, with all of these snow days we've lost some good opportunities to study together. Exams WILL START TOMORROW--that means it's your job to get prepared.
Below I'm posting a breakdown of exactly what's on the exam. Later today I'll be back to post the answers to your homework, in detail, for you to study.
I will not be having any reviews after school--I don't think this would be fair to the B period students. We're a team, so you're going to get the same challenge they did. I have faith though--study these topics below, use the Barron's book, you got this...
AP FREE RESPONSE SECTION (5 questions, you must complete 4)

- Linear Regression: 4 questions
- Simulations/Surveys/Bias: 5 questions

SATURDAY SESSION CANCELLED
Unfortunately tomorrow's review has officially been cancelled and rescheduled for Saturday, February 5th.
It's unfortunate we didn't get this opportunity to review for the midterm exam with some of the best students and teachers from across the state; it puts a little more responsibility on our shoulders to prepare for the exam.
However, the rescheduling also gives us one review per month for February, March, and April, the 3 months leading to the AP exam.
Enjoy your weekend; get your multiple choice and AP problem done--and I'll see you all Monday.

Tuesday HW
Sorry for the no post yesterday--I know, I'm slacking. I'm back on top of my game though...
Your homework tonight is to complete the 2 conditional probability questions (one from 1997 regarding disease, one regarding "Mr. Murphy"--SKIP F ON THIS QUESTION! Or, make up an answer--I have no idea what it's getting at.
The AP Problem: Using Probability is due MONDAY. This will be graded.
