You say you know about ALEK's. I wish I paid better attention to some of these posts. I jumped into ALEK's Business Stats with only a weak Beginning Algebra background (ALEK's) and being out of school for years and now I'm plucking my eyelashes out. I'm at 50% complete and I'm crawling like a two-legged hamster. I see people complete this in about a week and I'll be lucky if I complete this in a month. Chebyshev's Theorem, are you kiddin me? Sound advice - Don't dive less you know the depth. Statistics survival guide: If you drink coffee, STOP! You will be overtaken by urges to break things. Keep aspirin close at hand, the headaches are more frequent the further along you are. If the kids are home, send them out to the pizza joint or on a play date.....they don't really need to hear or see this, do they? I strongly suggest heavy bag work prior to and after every assessment. Occasionally listen to Yanni for comfort, any country music to know there are others out there who are worse off than you and most definitely, Iron Maiden, just so you remember....there is Life After Death! In the name of the father..........
