Am I actually going to be pulling out a calculator to do statistical calculations for my job? Heck no! That's what Excel is for! That's why I'm SO HAPPY that they are actually teaching me how to utilize Excel for stats because that is something I will actually use in the future.
I worked in Accounting/Finance for a long time, and seriously, I never had to do calculations by hand (with or without a calculator). And, every company I worked for had you do things a different way - they had excel spreadsheets for EVERYTHING! Unless they had a computer program which did it even more easily. So I can't quite figure out why stats is a "thing" for business degrees at this point in time. I never did a single blessed thing with stats in all the years I worked. I know this course is a complete waste of time for me, which makes it even harder to try to pass!! banghead
