WGU-Applied Probability and Statistics

[Mitmike2019]

A friend will be applying to WGU BSBAIT program. He has completed about 60 credits at a JC level, to include college algebra, precal and calculus 1. He is wondering if one of the calculus classes could satisfy the Applied Probability and Statistics.

Thanks,

I wouldn't count on Calc I fulfilling that. The CSMLearn course ($39, pretty easy if you're a math-type) should work though.

You can take a stats courses many places alternatively: ALEKS, Study.com, Sophia, Saylor, DSST exam, and a TECEP Exam.

You are correct but CSMLearn will only satisfy WGU Stats in their business college. If the OP is in the IT college he/she will have to take a Stats class. Sophia's Stats class would be a good alternative as it is only $40 more and can be completed in about a week if you can grind it out.  That's cheap and fast.

ALEKS is only $20/mo.

Saylor learning materials are free, as are Against All Odds, KhanAcademy, and others I'm sure. Only when you're ready do you pay the $25 fee to take the final exam.
