Principles of Statistics - DSST Exam
#3
nithyarajaram Wrote:Hi,

I am planning to take DSST Exam for the Principles of Statistics in the mid december timeframe and I am wondering if it will be sufficient to pass the exam just by studying the intracert questionaires. Please, advice me if anyone have taken Statistics exam earlier. If I need to focus on studying other books / materials, please do forward the names to me. I am pretty new to these CLEP / DSST's. Also, what are teh total number of questions and the passing score?

Also, In intantcert, the formula for SD is sqrt (sigma (X-mean) / N-1) whereas in other books, it's sqrt (sigma (X-mean) / N ). which one is correct? Please advice.


Thanks much,
Nithya:p
Hi Nithya-
I took this last summer. I think if I remember correctly, the difference between the two formulas is the one over N isthe SD for a population and the one over N - 1 is the SD of a sample. There are some previous threads on this subject with reference to extra materials that are helpful. Good luck with your studies.
