Tomorrow's the big day....

STUDY. Then, STUDY MORE. Then, study some Chem for your quiz, too.

Tomorrow will be a nice opportunity for you to test you're learning to this point in AP Stats. I'm looking forward to seeing the results,and of course wish you all the best of luck (but you won't need luck if you study).

*If you go to the classroom resources/powerpoints and scroll to the bottom you can find a list of topics to study for tomorrow's test (Unit One Exam Topics)*

Here are a few more tidbits about tomorrow's exam:
  • You do not have to create any graphical displays by hand or on your calculator. All questions based on graphical analysis come with the graphs provided.
  • The Normal model question is similar to the "Storms" problem we did in class (remember, Minor, Kinda, and Super storms?)
    • And don't forget invnorm() problems. You need to know how to find the cutoff for the "top 20%", for instance.
  • Study your boxplot quiz we had--tomorrow you'll have to compare two boxplots
  • Make sure you know how to determine outliers!
  • Make sure you know the relationship between the mean and median dependent upon shape (in class we folded a paper into three columns and took some notes on this topic--study this!)
  • Independence--know what it is! The test question is just like #20 from our recent homework (p. 131)
See you manana! (pretend there's a tilde over that first n).
