Study.com Statistics?
#10
(09-20-2017, 02:21 PM)gremlinbrawler Wrote: I know this post is late but maybe it can still help someone. I took statistics through study.com and I'll let you in on a little secret. The actual test is about 10x easier than what you learn in the videos. The videos were so hard, at least for me. I spent so much time trying to understand them and sometimes I would just move forward even if I didn't think I had a solid understanding. I nervously took the practice test and to my astonishement the questions are rediculously easy. Same with the real test. You'll feel like a 7th grader on the real test.
So that being said, the course itself seems super hard but the actualy exam is not. You can get a good idea of this by taking the final practice exam. I do not know how this course got ACE approval because the real test is so easy it feels borderline unethical. I definitely don't think that this is typical of the study.com courses and I have taken many of them but this one is different. I suppose they could change it in the future so I'll mention that I took it around march of 2017. For reference I got 74% on the practice exam and 77% on the proctored final.
If I were you I would just take the practice test to get a feel for it and then decide if you want to take statistics through study.com or somewhere else.

I'm hoping this is the case for me because I'm super nervous about taking the exam stats 101 exam with study.com. I too had to watch the videos multiple times to get some of the content.  IDK about the practice test though yet because the quick skim on it I did didn't look like the questions were super easy (to me that is) I'm giving myself a week to study and then fingers crossed this will all be over!

If anyone has any additional updates please let me know.
I will circle back after to let you know a more recent experience with the final.
