Has anyone taken the Principles of Statistics TECEP? I was just reading the exam guide (http://www2.tesu.edu/tecep_desc/STA-201.pdf). Its 100 MC questions and you only need to answer 55 correctly. On top of that, here is what they have to say about the exam :"You may bring a non-programmable calculator but probably won’t need it. The exam is concept-based, so you do not need to memorize every formula. However, you do need to be familiar with formulas so you can identify the appropriate situation in which to use them. You should memorize the following formulas:mean--median--standard deviation--z-score--variances"
Anyone who has taken an actual in person Stats course (yours truly), or took the Stats DSST (again yours truly), or even took a stab at the ALEKs Stats course (you guessed it, yours truly), knows how much a pain in the neck all the calculations are. This may seem like a good option for someone seeking a more concept based method.
Has anyone already attempted and would like to comment?

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
